Calculations for science, calculations...Lunar bedrock has no Helium-3--it's the regolith that has been bathed in the Sun for BILLIONS of years, that contains the H3. So I don't think there would be any danger re mass change of the moon, and thus affecting tides.

^^^ dugaya d i,, cguro it takes years para mabalik ang cycle to get the earth and mars have the least distance para dili kaayo dugay ang travel time. So when kaha ni possible mahitabo? ka swerte sa people nga naka abot sa first lunar landing,,maayu unta maka abot ko sa manned mission sa mars.

Rod,
40th Anniversary of Apollo XI coming up soon!
I just hope the Michael Jackson hooplah dies down by then so the media organizations can put out tributes worthy of the event.Last edited by Tarmac; 07-09-2009 at 11:08 AM.

07-09-2009, 11:30 AM #29Yep. I seriously doubt there will be "good" coverage by the news networks. The best site to visit still, would be NASA itself. My company is currently involved in a project that is somewhat related to this event, so I might throw in a few notes about the anniversary in this section. Originally Posted by Tarmac

I do hope NatGeo, Discovery and History Channel all run specials on the moon landings. I'm certainly not looking to CNN for that. Originally Posted by rodsky

A thrilling blend of hisotry, reportage and memoir, Moondust rekindles the hopeful excitement of an incandescent hour in America's past and recaptures the bittersweet heroism of those who risked everything to hurl themselves out of the known world--and who were never again quite able to accept its familiar bounds."
Neil Armstrong became a professor and essentially faded from public view. Buzz Aldrin became mired in alcoholism and depression. Charles Duke practically fell apart, picked himself up and became a preacher. Alan Bean became an artist. Jim Irwin said he "heard God" and likewise became a preacher.
Interesting reading so far, well written too.Last edited by Tarmac; 07-10-2009 at 06:09 PM.
