I think they are attacking an alien outpost there.
:)
Is this a good idea?
What if it broke up into zillions of pieces and fell to earth with cometary impact?
Quick, someone find out where Marin Balsam is.
Besides, the moon obstructs my view of Venus.
Six mile high explosion to see whether or not there’s water? Cool. This sounds exactly like something those Mythbuster guys would have come up with.
Its already been done. There was even a live thread.
They’re going to the moon for water? I got ya water right here. I’ll sell it to ya. You pay me, and I’ll tell you where to pick it up.
[after the sucker pays TheOldLady] The surface of the earth is 75% water. Go for it.
Oh wait. I know, I know! The water on the moon is lighter than the water here, so the molecular bond is weaker. That will make it easier to separate the oxygen from the hydrogen. Right?
So even though it will cost about a bazillion trillion gazillion dollars to get the light water from the moon, it will still be cheaper to separate the gases. Right?
Right?
