Anniversary Of Amazing
My friend Dougie sent me this today, on the anniversary of the event. Among the many takeaways: science. Is it cool, or what? Too bad an entire policial party and millions of its minions reject it.
Also, look at the names and faces of the scientists, and tell me why immigration is a bad thing.
But, mainly, wow.

Beyond cool. It's awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI remember a press conference at which one of the scientists on the team spoke. He was responsible for some major part of the descent and he looked like a teenager, was dressed in a t-shirt, and made it sound as if the math and physics he used were something we all learned in elementary school.
Anyone think there's life on the moon?
ReplyDeleteWe'll never know, will we, Smoove? The landing was faked.
ReplyDeleteLOL...
ReplyDeleteMy reasoning is that we are explorers. We didn't land in the "New World" never to come back. If we can make a colony on Mars. We can do it on the Moon. We have a science lab that is in a cramped satellite drinking their pee. We pay Russia to carry our astronauts. A linear accelerator on the Moon would be nice.
I am a know nothing, but the moon, where the temperature plunges to a mere minus 378 Fahrenheit, has to be a great way to cool off a computer using no energy. A quantum leap in winter socks technology! The possibilities are endless.
Yet we don't go back to the moon? It's completely against our human nature. We all explore stuff. Always have and always will...But we visit the moon once?
