The crashing of the rocket revealed the existence of water on the Moon and being the MASSIVE geek that I am, I'm very excited by this news. Sure, it's not as exciting as possible confirmation of life on Mars - but who cares? NASA claims that not only was water confirmed on the Moon, but a 'significant amount' of it too. And I STRONGLY believe that wherever there's water, there's LIFE! Even if nothing more than microbial life is found on the Moon, it would still be a revolutionary discovery. We live in exciting times!

I know they have to check, re-check, double and triple check so that they don't jump the gun and announce something until they were sure... but a whole month? Oh well. The real question is... will this discovery be enough to jump start the return trip to the moon NASA's been talking about for years? With the nation's economy the way it is, I wonder if such a project would even be bankrolled.

China's not in anywhere NEAR as much debt as the US, plus they've got a kickass space program goin' on.

It was proposed that it was going to be dropped and a planned trip to an asteroid nearer Mars was suggested. Considering they're planning lunar bases and whatnot...I say returning to the moon is most definitely a definitive plan. "If challenge had a taste...you'd be quite delicious."

And whilst I do find the discovery of water on the moon fascinating, if its anything like 'The Waters of Mars' then be afraid of the water...

I was trying not to smirk every time the script mentioned NASA. No longer a forum staff member. Please do not contact me if you need a Mod or Admin.

But this is still pretty cool :) I love astronomy. ~Shadowed Spirit Sage

You are WRONG. There are squirrels on the Moon. GEORGE ADAMSKI WAS RIGHT.

Your love for hupplajuju wickeywackey whatchamabuh?! is all well and good. I'm happy you think of stingrays in the atmosphere and water spirits in the chimney and I'mma let you finish, but life by it's definition requires certain things to sustain itself. You know this, and you have the freedom to believe what you wish, as do all hupplajuju wickeywackeyoligists--- but guess what? YOU ARE WRONG! ^_______________^ just thought I'd let you know.

Your love for made up words is all well and good. I'm happy that you don't think that squirrels dwell on the Moon, but life by its definition has no scientific meaning that is universally agreed upon.

Totally NOT Photoshopped.

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	Well, as someone who believes in an omnipotent Creator with whom nothing is impossible, I find it completely in the realm of possibilities for God to create life that would go against our understanding of life as we know it, including putting life on the moon, a star, in the vacuum of space, etc. though I don't think he did but shrug.
