NASA this week revealed that it had opened and was studying one of the final soil capsules from the Apollo 17 lunar mission ahead of humanity’s planned return to the moon in 2025.
The space agency said in a news release that “one of the last unopened Apollo-era lunar samples collected during Apollo 17 has been opened under the careful direction of lunar sample processors.” more
“…humanities return…” to the moon in 2025?!! You mean China? Good job, NASA!
Got off Work early…and have been imbibing on the front Porch all afternoon..
and My immediate thought was the Beeping Moon Rocks from “Green Acres”
I’m not gonna lie….Jim Beam goes great with Hamburger Helper..Add Water
My Ass…
…this is just so they can claim it was full of lunar Coronavirus and lock everyone down again, this time until they starve…
Like covid isn’t a big enough problem, they’ve gotta let loose whatever’s in there.
…this seems like a good place to bring this up again, what with the space program and all…
I remember a story about John Glenn’s psychological tests to become an astronaut.
“…and submitted to batteries of personality quizzes that included, among others, one entitled “Who An I?” which called for 20 short answers to that question. (John Glenn recalled that the first answers were easy—”I am a man, I am a Marine, I am a flier, I am a husband . . . I am a father.” Near the end, he confessed, it was not so easy to figure out who he was.)”

…I wonder how soon to be Supreme Court “Justice” Ketanji Brown Jackson would answer were the same test applied to her, seems like she wouldn’t make it past John Glenn’s first response.
…and with THIS caliber of people in government, I guess it is not a surprise that they don’t say *we* are going back to the Moon…

Best.

What’s the rush ? 50 years?
I bet it will prove we never went to the moon, the earth is flat, JFK was shot from the grassy knoll, and George Bush took down the World Trade Center.
