"We hope to learn how often big rocks crash into the Moon since we're sending astronauts back,"

Could the answer be 5 or 6 times on some days?

The kinetic energy can easily exceed the explosive potential of that amount of TNT. Do not scorn kinetic energy!

The Moon's atmosphere is negligible.

Is "none" negligible?

My job had a 'ringside seat' view of the Geminids.
Unfortunately, we also had cloud cover that night.

First the Hollywood writers, next the Broadway stagehands and now the Geminids!

It's Bush's Fault and only a leader with extensive experience can mitigate these circumstances. I say we launch the Hildebeast to the Moon, (which can be a Harsh Mistress), along with her Bubba to fixthis problem.
