Title: NASA LRO sends back pictures of Apollo landing sites
Post by: Ranger12 on July 17, 2009, 03:05:13 PM
Call me a geek, but I think this is pretty cool stuff, especially when you can see the walking path of the Apollo 14 astronauts:

The folks who think the moon landing was a hoax amuse me. My wife's grandparents worked for NASA for a VERY long time.....it definitely happened.

Useless fact: Her grandfather actually engineered the seat for one of the primate missions in the '60s (I think 1969 or somewhere around there).

Another useless fact: If you retire from a decent level NASA job they give you a FUCKLOAD of money for the rest of your life.

As long as you keep quiet about the aliens.

Actually, neither of them ever give a straight answer about that. Not even to my wife. Soooo, that tells me they probably exist.

That's fucked up. 

I'll just be glad when those bastards return to pick up Oprah and Taylor Hicks.  They've been here long enough.

Well, now that Michael Jackson has been beamed back up, mission 1/3 complete.
