New moon ping.
Ah, the “water on the moon” scam. How stupid do the Tangdrinkers think we are?
More reason for people to be there. The first person to drink it... I’d volunteer.
If there were water inside the moon, wouldn’t it be on the surface? I’m so confused how this works, there would have to be somewhere on the moon that it’s leaking out, right?
I think they're "water happy" .
I would but only if it came from fairly deep.
Awesome! We need a series of studies to increase the amount of water in the Central Valley of California. Heck, might as well do a series of studies on Texas too.
What a boon these study series are. How could I have been so blind?
Surface (close to) is sterilized. If it’s water, lets go.
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: He made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. Genesis 1:14-19
So, according to God, He made the moon on day four some 7,450 years ago.
Some of them get propelled right out of the atmosphere by Sunlight.
They drift further and further away from Earth only to be caught up by the Moon!
These ice crystals are by that time totally sublimated and constitute a form of very cold water vapor. When it hits the Moon it is precipitated out as ice crystals, and piles up over the millions and billions of years. Next thing you know, voila, a Caribbean sized ocean of water every 15 days, and then a Caribbean sized ice cube for the next 15 days.
Smeared out over the surface it'd look like a heavy frost. Slowly the freeze/thaw cycle would allow this water to blast its way into the interior just like it was busting up the street in front of your house in wintertime.
Alas, they didn't come along for many years!
Nice. I had the best watermelon last evening. We went to the beach for our summer time weenie roast kickoff my sister brought one no seeds very round
Considering the relative lack of gravity compared to Earth, you’d think there would be some floating water or a mist of some sort.
I bet that left a mark
It floated off.
Could get a nasty shell burn from that.
