Dante Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 China has to put the half of Hollywood they own to better use than that. C'mon Kubrick's version looked way better and he pulled it off in the 60's 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! That we have allowed something so aggressive to happen unchecked has only shown that the strength of our nation has weakened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitmic Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I thought we owned the moon ... Isn't there a toll booth, customs, a wall, anything ? Nothing like a little moo shoo cat on the moon with a nice view of the Earth for your dining pleasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 2 hours ago, Foxx said: there is a side that doesn't face our star. No. There's a side that doesn't face our planet. When we see a full moon, the side of the moon facing Earth is also facing the sun (our star). During a new moon, the side facing away from Earth is facing the sun. At any given location on the moon, there's about 14 days of sunlight and then 14 days of darkness. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
