The spacecraft will not head straight for the Moon. First it will orbit the Earth a number of times while its precise target is identified. Finally, it will send the missile into the Moon at twice the speed of a bullet on October 8.

NASA to Bomb Moon

It's exploring the moon the American way: with bombs. Today NASA is expected to launch a mission to bomb a crater near the moon's south pole, Scientific American reports. The aim of the mission is to figure out if there is water below the surface of the moon. Scientists will examine the debris kicked up by the explosion for water ice or vapor. The explosion will kick debris 6 miles into the moon's atmosphere, making it visible from Earth. If, as Scientific American put it, ice is "trapped in crater shadows near the south pole which never receives any sunlight," the resulting water could serve as the basis for a manned moon base

Yeah, it's about time we nuke the moon.

i bet they get the american people so far in supporting a war against the moon.

seriously though...i'd think this ws news worthy....

BUT looking for water on the moon??

WTF....

lemme go ahead and make a prediction....they wont find any water...or no appreciable amounts...they mind find trace quantities

My fellow Americans could be tricked into full scale war with the moon. No doubt... $:-\$

It is an Al Qaeda strong hold you know...

We're all going to be owned on a planetary scale when they find out he moon is very fragile and it cracks in two...

Why waste a perfectly good missle on the moon when there are so many worthy targets in the middle east?

So what's the problem? Here are just a few of the facts that come to light:

1. Exploding a bomb on the moon will displace several miles of Lunar material according to what NASA claims will happen.

2. The displacement of lunar material will follow Newton's law about equal and opposite reaction. This means that an equal force will be exerted on the Moon to match the force it takes to eject miles of material. No one can actually predict what will happen, just as NASA failed miserably predicting the results of another experiment. In a previous mission, a NASA spacecraft fired a high velocity copper warhead penetrator into a comet's core. The results were not what they expected. This is because popular science theory really believes comets are dirty snowballs. Instead, the actual results were already predicted by the electric universe theory. Comets are not dirty snowballs which is something many of us already knew. Yet again, NASA refused to use common sense and look at theories based on real evidence and science, such as the electric universe theory.

3. If the McDonald Moon ranging project is cancelled, no one will be able to measure the displacement of the Moon caused by the explosion. Perhaps this is the idea by cancelling the project.

4. Exploding a bomb on the Moon is against all international laws and treaties. NASA doesn't own the Moon and they never will, and as such have no right to instigate such madness. This madness is on a par with the utterly insane space elevator.

5. Last but not least is the water issue. This is one follows yet another big lie. Almost every book about our solar system claims it is nearly a perfect vacuum. So how does water behave when exposed to a reduced atmosphere? The speed it evaporates (sublimates) is in proportion to the amount of atmosphere present. If a window blows out of a plane at 50,000 ft. water and blood will boil. And that's not even in a very good vacuum.

And here's what it all comes down to water disappears completely in a vacuum. Therefore, the idea of NASA finding water on the Moon by exploding a bomb in a vacuum on the Moon is utterly ridiculous. Heat from the bomb combined with the vacuum will flash-evaporate any trace water so fast it cannot not be measured. No two ton bomb has ever exploded without generating tremendous heat, and this heat will blind infrared sensors. Long before the sub-lunar surface cools off to take a reading, any water will be long gone. So the idea of using a bomb to find water is wrong on many levels.
