The Moon is fascinating


I remember that time we found the transformers ship on the dark side of the moon.

When in reality, the moon is a 74 million million million pound rock that is flying at 2200+ mph to complete the 1.2 million mile orbit distance around the earth so I can see it in the sky again tomorrow night.

We’ve either never stepped foot on the moon or kept what was found secret to protect the best interest of humanity. Either way there was definitely a studio production.

You know how the Moon looks huge at the horizon and smaller higher up? That's an optical illusion. Your mind is fricking with you.

A golf ball floats in a bucket of water? Then why when I hit one in the pond on the 17th hole I can’t find it?

The most fascinating thing about it to me is that we always see the same side of it. It is spinning and rotating around earth in perfect synchronization so that only one side is always facing earth


The vast majority of moons out there are the same, as are many planets, so tidally locking objects really isn’t all that fascinating.

The size of the moon relative to earth is very large, which is super rare. And it was much closer billions of years ago so the tides were much more extreme. Helped create life.

NASA scientists
The Apollo 12 mission to the Moon in November 1969 set up seismometers and then intentionally crashed the Lunar Module causing an impact equivalent to one ton of TNT. The shockwaves built up for eight minutes, and NASA scientists said the Moon ‘rang like a bell.

You know they plowed larger things into it, right? 5 times the 3rd stage (Saturn iv-b) was plowed into the lunar surface, at 10 times the force. And that's how my grandpa became the only chief engineer in history to get 5 rocket stages on the moon. Everyone else is still at 0

I don’t believe this at all. Why are you so sure?
