Science There Is Water on the Moon!
Posted by Charles Mudede on Fri, Nov 13, 2009 at 10:24 AM
Not only is whitey on the moon:
(CNN) NASA said Friday it had discovered water on the moon, opening "a new chapter" that could allow for the development of a lunar space station.One day the rich will be able to take a bath on the balcony of the earth, the moon.The discovery is based on preliminary data collected when the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite, or LCROSS, intentionally crashed October 9 into the permanently shadowed region of Cabeus crater near the moon's south pole.

I admire your ability to inject race into any story, Charles. I think you should cover Science from now on!

If NASA didn't want to illicit speculation like this, they shouldn't have named that satellite LCROSS.

Wow, that is so cool. That means they can have mermaids in the big tank behind the bar at the tourist hotel.
And Dougsf, I think "elicit" is the word you were looking for. :-)

@7 - ha ha ha, whoops. No wait, I mean... you know... you can get "ice" on the moon. It'll be like Hawaii, but colder.

i get the tired wealthy vs. poor bit.
but, wow. racist much?
how are we supposed to move past race in our society if nobody lets the issue die?
don't worry charles, i'm sure even one day you could get a chance to bathe at the Lunar Spa, complete with breakfast in bed of fried chicken and waffles.
but keep propagating racism. i'm sure our posterity will thank us for not solving our petty differences and tackling actual issues of importance.
