Absolutely - I am a Lunatic. :D

Seth Manson · 04-26-2011, 05:11 PM

Can I take my iPad? and some sodas and my bbq grill? I'd go there and stay there.

cam_girls · 04-26-2011, 05:47 PM

What about a fake moon holiday done with special effects?

Danny B · 04-26-2011, 11:08 PM

I'll pass. I already get nervous in elevators if I have to go up 30 floors.
Imagine how I'll be feeling on my way to the moon.

Once they get the internet hooked up there, I'd go!

They built the Skylab space station and six space shuttles, of which five were space-worthy. One hundred and thirty five shuttle launches. That's pretty significant.

Eleven Pioneer space probes. Pioneer 10 & 11 explored our outer planets and left our solar system carrying plaques about us just in case aliens should ever find them. Pioneer Venus 1 orbited Venus and studied it for over ten years. Pioneer Venus 2 sent four probes into Venus to learn about it's atmosphere.

Voyager 1 & 2 space probes. They studied Saturn and Jupiter and told us much of what we know about those two planets, and now both are on their way out of our solar system. Last November, Voyager 1 was 10,712,000,000 miles from Earth and traveling at 11 miles per second.

Viking 1 & 2 space probes. Both went to Mars and launched landers and gave us a shitload of data about the planet. This was in the 70's.

Helios space probes. The two of them were built to study heliocentric orbits around the sun and worked for nine years. The reached speeds of over 157,000mph. They dont function anymore but are still in orbit around the sun.

Hubble Space Telescope. Its amazing and has been in orbit and functioning for 21 years now. Its responsible for discovering many galaxies and sending back some awesome photographs.

Magellan space probe. it was the first deep space probe to be launched from a space shuttle and it was also the first probe to send back high resolution photos of the surface of Venus.

Galileo space probe. Another probe launched from a space shuttle, it used gravity assist fly-bys of Earth and Venus to get it to Jupiter. It was the first space probe to orbit Jupiter and was the first to do an asteriod fly-by, and launched a probe in Jupiter's atmosphere. After it studied Jupiter, it did close fly-bys of Jupiter's moon Europa and Io, before it was terminated by crashing into Jupiter's atmosphere. It flew for 14 years.

The Mars Global Surveyor. It sent back 240,000 high resolution images of mars and functioned for 10 years.

Mars Exploration Rovers. They were both designed to land on Mars study the Mars surface and geology for 90 days. They've been functioning for 7 years and discovered water on the planet.

The New Horizons Probe. It launched in 2006 and is currently on its way to Pluto and will arrive there in 2015, and will study Pluto and then fly out of our solar system to study the Kuiper Asteriod Belt.

LCROSS Moon Probe in 2009. It was actually two probes, one crashed into the moon and the other studied the debris cloud, and found a significant amount of water on the moon. And thats important if we ever plan on an extended stay there.

A shitload of commercial, weather, military, communications, and GPS satellites have been launched. You cant have GPS without GPS satellites.

So, what has NASA been doing for 40 years?
I guess nothing.

Now, show me your spooky.

Seth Manson · 04-27-2011, 10:41 AM

The space shuttle Endeavour will launch on Friday and then it will be retired. Only one more space shuttle flight left after this one.

If they put a 5 star hotel with a bar, pool, spa and plenty of moon maidens up there, then sure,

I'd go.

All of which is awesome from a scientific perspective, but kinda not doing much to bring the once seemingly-imminent space travel to the masses.

Hey, we also bombed the moon, for some reason.

justinsain · 04-28-2011, 04:32 PM

I'm very fortunate to have watched the last Saturn V rocket launch to the moon just a few miles from the Cape. It literally made the ground shake and it is something I'll never forget

Now take a look up this thread at that magnificent Rocket and try to imagine strapping yourself in one of the three seats up at the very tip top of the rocket and riding that thing as it blasts off. All astronauts but particularly those are truly badass heros.

It would be truly hysterical to hook up cameras like they do on a Disney roller coasters to capture the faces of all those that think they could make the ride

marlboroack · 04-28-2011, 05:11 PM

I would just go to a cheese factory. That's where the moon was made.

Why do we need to go back to the moon? We've been there 6 times already. Its 238,897 miles away and there really isnt much we can do there that we cant do on the space station.

Its much cheaper to travel to the space station which is only 220 miles away and we have already built than to go to the moon, which is 1000x as far and set up new operations. You have to land on the moon and it has gravity which means you need power to take off. It takes fuel to make power. Fuel is heavy and has to be transported to the moon, there are no gas stations there. Transporting fuel means you dont have as much room to transport cargo. I'm sure you seen pictures of how small the lunar landing craft actually were.

With the space station you just dock, and then undock and drift away when its time to leave.

I think in the past 40yrs, NASA has done great things. A lot of thing we have today are the result of aerospace research.

Because then we could tell Earth to

Seth Manson · 04-29-2011, 12:56 AM

A lunar base could be built if NASA or another space agency launched several modules to the moon and managed to land them safely there in very close proximity to each other. Then a manned or robotic crew could go and assemble the structure, but it would be much more difficult to do because of the moon's gravity. And its a quater million miles away so if something was broken or damaged, its not like you could just fedex a replacement overnight.

I'm sure a lunar base will be constructed at some point but probably not within the next 20 - 30 years.

You are debating something you heard someone else say once or something. I don't think aerospace research has failed to contribute to human knowledge or more general useful technology. I'm not talking about doing additional manned scientific missions to re-document the documented.

I just am disappointed that casually affordable commercial space travel is not yet a reality. A lot of futurists expected it would be by now. That doesn't mean zilch has come out of the space program, but it is still a disappointment to a lot of people.

The thread question was whether folks would like to visit the moon, not whether NASA has done anything of any use ever.
