NASA is crashing a rocket into the moon at 7:30 am
on Oct. 9, 2009. They are expecting it to to go 200 foot deep into the moon and then cause it to explode 6 miles high. Wh you may ask? Just to see if the moon has water or ice. For real! I personally do not think they had the right to go and do such a thing to the moon like this, but, what can anyone do about it? I am not even worried about the 79 MILLION DOLLARS of tax payers money that is paying for such a stupid thing to do, for, it is not the money that really bothers me about this whole situation. It is no the first time or the most that has been waisted by government and certainly not the last. How do you feel about this? At 7:30 am Friday morning, the rocket is going to hit the south pole end of the moon and go 200 foot deep just to ind if they are ice or water on the moon. Then a satellite taking photos is going to follow it and all the time sending photos back to earth until it gets sucked into the hole from the crashing impact. Are they going to be taking baths on the moon? Digging wells ext? Who knows, but, I for one m totally against this effort for a good many reasons! |

1 But wont this have some sort affect on tides? I mean the hole in the moon? I dont really care about the money aspect but the world. 2012 could be more real than people wanna believe and it might just take 3 full years to see a full affect from crashing into the moon. But they know what they are doing....right?....right?????R ight?? But we should know if they are other life forms out there it would put a lot of arguments to rest. |

"Indeed, yes, we found water. And we didn't find just a little bit, we found a significant amount," Anthony Colaprete, LCROSS project scientist and principal investigator from NASA's Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, Calif.
The LCROSS probe impacted the lunar south pole at a crater called Cabeus on Oct. 9. The $79 million spacecraft, preceded by its Centaur rocket stage, hit the lunar surface in an effort to create a debris plume that could be analyzed by scientists for signs of water ice. NASA plans to return astronauts to the moon by 2020 for extended missions on the lunar surface. Finding usable amounts of ice on the moon would be a boon for that effort since it could be a vital local resource to support a lunar base. The impact was observed by LCROSS's sister spacecraft, the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, as well as other space and ground-based telescopes. The debris plume from the impacts was not seen right away and was only revealed a week after the impact, when mission scientist had had time to comb through the probe's data. NASA launched LCROSS — short for Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite — and LRO in June. |
