Scientists are priming two spacecraft to slam into the moon's South Pole to see if the lunar double whammy reveals hidden water ice.

 

The Earth-on-moon violence may raise eyebrows, but NASA's history shows that such missions can yield extremely useful scientific observations.

Reminds me of those famous movie lines...

 

Max Landsberger: Since the 1984 oil discovery in New Guinea, we have sold the Bu!kais hill tribesmen 20 of our S-24 fighters. At $21 million per unit, that's $252 million. This has started a local arms race between the Bu!kais, and their local neighbors the Kla!klalas. Now the Kla!klalas also happen to be sitting an a large amount of oil. And now the Kla!klalas want to buy 20 of our new Slash X-Ray Ultra Pursuit fighters for a total of $480 million.

 

Pete Helmes: What are the chances of war between them?

 

Bob Nixon: Very good sir. Our spare parts replacement contracts could be very lucrative.

 

Pete Helmes: Who trains their flight personnel?

 

Max Landsberger: Well, as near as we can assess it... well, they don't actually fly the planes. They sort of roll them down hills, crashing them into each other.

 

Scott Dantley: Personally, I think that it's a shameful waste of incredible kill power.

 

Pete Helmes: Make the deal.

 

Bob Nixon, Scott Dantley: Absolutely.

You know... I didn't actually think that Bush made this plan

 

:D

 

So in the name of science, they are gonna ram a probe into the south pole of the Moon. :wacko:

 

Sick puppies. They're gonna need a whole lot of lube.

 

No way, man. Scientists are always right. Just like the geniuses who want to pump a ton of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere to combat global warming.
