Irrespective of the rights and wrongs of the Nobel choice, it was almost worth it just to hear all the crazees frothing at the mouth this morning (and for a bunch normally so keen to accuse others of "playing the race card" when it suits, they seem to be doing an awful good job of introducing race into the conversation themselves - again, when it suits)

Yeah, actually it is a good idea, Mongoose. It's a NASA mission that was started years before Obama was ever even a Presidential nominee, and which is intended to identify water on the moon that would help facilitate our return to it on our way to Mars.

And what exactly are you afraid will go wrong? You think the impact will nudge the moon away from earth, out into the vastness of space or something? I suppose facts don't matter to you in this instance either, hm? Like the fact that the moon is hit by stronger impacts than this multiple times every single month, and yet it hasn't been blasted out into space yet?

And what's up with your comment that "The U.N. Outer Space Treaty prohibits non-peaceful activities on the moon." What's "non-peaceful" about a search for water on the moon - knowledge that would be beneficial to citizens of the entire planet?
