A needle is too large. It's more like a grain of sand in a hay stack as large as Antarctica.


A grain of sand it too large. It's more like an atom in a haystack the size of our solar system.

I say we send the people who got banned from renforums there first, to test the water...

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I wonder who is going to be the first man/woman to drink natural moon water?

..and live?

In other news, a young Russian man was sent to the moon without proper breathing equipment. After failing his attempt at painting the moon neon green, he shouted out "U JELUS MY HUD", and promptly died.

No one attended the funeral.

Above post: BWAHAHAHAA.

Back on topic, I actually had an idea the other day after reading about orbital satellite telescopes, radio sensors, etc. What if we were to use the moon as a base for celestial research? As the moon has no atmosphere it makes for a better location for sensors and because of the gravity difference. The only problem I could see is the gravity difference, which could likely make things just not work right.

Is this material for another topic?

Some stuff would need to be adjusted yeah, but the main problem would be the people living on the moon themselves- due to the lower gravity, it would be almost impossible for them to properly live again on Earth unless we can find a way to make fully working artificial gravity that matches the Earth's.

We could possibly have it automated, or operated from Earth. The machinery could be robotic.

You're forgetting that the moon rotates around the earth and around itselfs, therefore it wouldn't be usable quite often (as the earth is blocking the view, or there is nothing of intrest in the direction the telescope is facing at that moment.

Actually, the same side of the moon always faces Earth. Equipment can easily be set up on the opposite side from us.

Burning is a chemical process, not an atomic one. To REALLY get rid of our waste, we'd need to find a way to get it into the sun's core, where it's fusion/fission occurs. Anything else is just the equivilent of the trash-burning we do on Earth, just at a hotter temperature.
