QUOTE NASA is planning on crashing a space probe into the moon in 2009. The explosion will be visible on Earth through a telescope and it will create a crater roughly the size of a third of a football field. What do you think? the story |

QUOTE NASA scientists say the collision should excavate a hole about a third the size of a football field and hurl a plume of debris into space. QUOTE The entire mission will cost more than $600 million, with the impactor project cost-capped at $80 million. QUOTE If ice is found, it could be melted and the water used to help make rocket fuel or oxygen. .. Isn't there enough water on earth? Why waste billions of dollars to crash a space probe on the moon, launching debris that could be harmful...? Is this NASA's way of taking a break? Bob: "Hey... remember when were were kids?" Joe: "Um, sure." Bob: "Well, I thought it would be cool to blow up the moon." Joe: "Wouldn't that change the gravitational force to the ocean and launch harmful debris into the vacuum of space and cost billions of dollars?" Bob: "That's true.." Joe: "LET'S DO IT!" |
