maplesyrup Posted November 26, 2004 Report Posted November 26, 2004 Moon gas may solve Earth's energy crisis Are we not brilliant - humankind at work in a crisis. We need to pat ourselves on the back once in a while, and this may be one of those occasions. Who says scientists are not the most important people on our planet?

maplesyrup Posted November 30, 2004 Author Report Posted November 30, 2004 We had better recall our troops from Afghanastan, and send them up to the Arctic to protect our black gold from the Yanks, eh! Maybe the US will turn out to be the biggest threat to Canada's sovereignty, even more than Le Bloc.

Big Blue Machine Posted November 30, 2004 Report Posted November 30, 2004 I told you guys, that going back to the moon and exploring space would be good for all mankind. Now we have a real reason to go back. Quote And as I take man's last step from the surface, for now but we believe not too far into the future. I just like to say what I believe history will record that America's challenge on today has forged man's destiny of tomorrow. And as we leave the surface of Taurus-Littrow, we leave as we came and god willing we shall return with peace and hope for all mankind. Godspeed the crew of Apollo 17.

The Terrible Sweal Posted November 30, 2004 Report Posted November 30, 2004 "When helium-3 combines with deuterium (an isotope of hydrogen) the fusion reaction proceeds at a very high temperature and it can produce awesome amounts of energy. I think we should preserve this vital resource until the sun goes out, then just ignite the moon. Quote
Big Blue Machine Posted December 1, 2004 Report Posted December 1, 2004 We could do that, then we would all melt as the heat of the moon would kill us all. That's unrealistic, we must mine the moon's resources. Quote And as I take man's last step from the surface, for now but we believe not too far into the future.
