"There are no aliens up there, as far as we know, but NASA is preparing to bomb the moon.
A space mission blasted off from Cape Canaveral today carrying a missile that will fire a hole deep in the lunar surface, The Daily Telegraph reported.
The unmanned Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite mission (LCROSS) will fire a Centaur rocket into the surface at twice the speed of a bullet.
The aim is to see whether any traces of water or vapour will be revealed by the disruption caused to the surface"
Gotta tell you, I'm not 100% on this one. When we live in a world where poverty effects a very large proportion of the world's population how can the yanks justify spending billions of dollars on bombing the fucking moon.
I've watched enough disaster movies to know that firing a missile at a large hunk of rock orbiting the planet is not exactly a good move.
Also, since when has the speed of a bullet become an accepted measure of speed.
