Explosions on the moon

Posted at 12:15 PM on May 22, 2008 by Bob Collins (2 Comments)

More reasons to love your earth's atmosphere.

We could be the moon where, according to a NASA news release, hundreds of explosions have occurred in the two years NASA has been monitoring the moon, in anticipation of a return of U.S. astronauts.

Here's video of one (supplied by NASA)

Meanwhile, there's new concern about global warming today... on Jupiter.

This reminds me of the begining of Orson Wells' War of the Worlds which starts with a report that astronomers had seen explosions on Mars.

I guess any invasion from the Moon would have made it here by now though, since that picture was taken in January.

Cool story. Moral - keep the airlock doors shut at all times. The side of the moon that faces earth would seem to be the safest and happily, would also have the nicest view.
