no doubt the moon station will be fully equiped with nuclear weapons, to strike down upon the enemies! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm moving to the moon base! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This links back when they were going to build a space station which could be equipped with nuclear weapons so they could fire them to any point in the earth |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
actually, how can we have a moon base? isnt there some international treaty that says the moon cant belong to anyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I own the moon |
||||||||
|

.. first come first serve? |

|
|
|||||||||

|

but think of the dangers if someone controlled the moon! they could post really big advertisements... "Ziplock backs, keeping the moon in orbit!" or something. |

Star Wars 2 :D |

Funnily enough Ceri, the prject was called 'Star Wars' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ceri is your name pronounced cherry |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, thats what he was refering to... not the movie :) |
||||||||
|
|

*confused* *horny* |

Not unless you want to call me "Cherry Carlton" (instead of "Ceri Charlton") in a futile attempt to wind me up, thinking I've never heard it before :) Seriously, it's pronounced the same as the English/American name "Kerry". pronounced "ke-re" "ke" as in "kellogs" and "re" as in "retard" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
kerry? really? I thought it was like... seri. O_o well, what do you know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I remember on the Warp party, i kept saying to pOgO "Where is ceri (said like sae-ri)" and she kept saying "Who's that?" What a great story |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't worry, an English flatmate called me sae-ri for about three months before he got it right :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
can i touch you... there? *tehee* |
||||||||

just had a horrible thought....since america has all the biggest and shineyest rockets, they will be the ones who reach every moon and planet first....and claim ownership of them. pretty soon the whole solar system will be full of americans. :( |

Bush is bad Mmm'Kay? |

there is some guy who claims he owns the moon. he sells pieces for $19.95 per acre and so far he has sold over $2 million acres. Basically he has found a total scam and become ludicrously rich. Not surprisingly he is an American |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm. Just like the guy on ebay selling. "Music from mars" And people are bidding! |
||||||||

i heard apparantly that the next stage in space transportation will be to create a huge elevator into the outer regions of the atmosphere and then deploy payloads into space for a fraction of the cost...that puts a whole new 'crazy' spin on elevator disastor films |

well, now you know who to vote for; anyone but george w shrub |

why would we put nuclear missles on the moon when it would take QUITE A WHILE for them to get back to the earth we have plenty of ICBM technology there, chief, do some research. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
supposing the rocket carrying the nuke malfunctioned and exploded en route to the moon, that would be a silly thing...and potentially quite funny providing now got hurt |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm glad to see the space program rejuvenating. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
although with nukes on the moon, we would be able to defend ourselves against ne 'independence day' style attacks by intiating the nuclear pincer arrangement...GO TEAM!! |

where is the money coming from? the USA are skint! |

Mr Spoon has ben arrested on suspicion of terrorist activities on the moon. Here is Mr Spoon at his nuclear control console. |

muhahaha! i always though there was something suspicious about them. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
...in light of this evidence, president bush has declared a new initiative on a war against kitchenalia |
||||||||

to be fair mr spoon looks like an oxford phd particle phyisics student |

BAM! Everyone owns the moon. |

|

beer4brains, if it would happen to 'explode' on the way to the moon, it would not detonate hte bomb. if you don't know how they work DONT TRY |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
all welsh 'c's are pronounced k aren't they? re: the moon station & mars mission. what a fucking stupid idea. we can only hope that the project will grind to a halt once bush is no longer president. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That dumb potatoe head of a president couldn't build a lego Moon Station without choking on one of the pieces. |
||||||||
|

yeah and cat is pronounced sat in wales |

acrid milk hall, and I suppose satellites and the space station are "fucking stupid idea" as well? Please care to tune your opinion about the information you know about future technologies and attempted space travel. Maybe you fail to see the big picture, or any picture for that matter judging by the context of your post. If we setup a space station we would have MUCH better access to large scale telescopes on mars without the atmosphere blocking the view. There would be many applications for a base on the moon, but apparently you are a mindless drone who never thinks outside the box. Good day sir, go live about your lives |
||||||||

|
|
hahaha.. lego.. ..not a bad idea. they produced some pretty good lego moon stations during the 1980s |
||||||||
|

did you guys hear about the esa smart-1 ion drive endowed satellite that was launched in september? |

"President Bush will announce plans next week to send Americans to Mars and establish a permanent human presence on the moon, senior administration officials said Thursday night." that line made me laugh =oD It just makes him sound crazy !! |

dont you dare speak to me like that elusive. im not writing off space travel/exploration as a whole. i realise it has broken ground in many areas which has in turn allowed technical advances applied in everyday life. but its incredibly expensive, this is why it was abandonned in the first place. in a world where the margin between rich and poor is ever widening. where money seems too scarce to use on improving the quality of life for millions.. how exactly can you justify to the common man the benefits of a moon station within their lifetime? or their childrens lifetime for that matter. im all for progress. but it seems all to easy to look outside of this world & forward to a etter future on these things.. we're not going to get there if we don't apply some care and attention to the state of our societies and the world we live in. im as impressed as the next man by the wonders of space missions. but lets not over-romanticise them.. nor neglect our more immediate problems. its not about 'thinking outside the box'.. its about being fucking realistic. |

I think we should blow up the moon. |

I want to push the button. |

it'll probably be an international effort, soas there isn't one nation controlling the thing... kinda like the spacestation, cept people have kinda lost interest in the spacestation, and it looks like if things don't change it may just be forgotten. but, yeah, like elusive said. there's hardly any atmosphere on the moon, so the telescopic view would be orders of magnitude better than anything we can get on earth. not to mention, if we put it on the dark side of the moon, there'll be no light pollution from the sun, so it'll be all the more better. plus, the gravity is so much weaker it'll be tons easier (read: cheaper) to launch exploration from the old moon unit. in summary, i think it's good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree with all that |
||||||||
|
|

|

the US should think more about other things, like how their 4% of the population accounts for 20% of the worlds polution and refuses to do anything to help reduce it. Earth should be priority, not mars. |
