the moon

We didn't go to the moon and airliners did not fly into the WTC even though I was staring at the tv when the second plane hit and I saw it with my own eyes, but it never happened.
 
what if russia takes our moon before we get back into space?

While they're preoccupied grabbing the moon, rush in and steal Moscow.

They'll have egg on their face then. They'll return all smug and superior from having captured the moon, and then won't their faces fall when they realize Moscow's missing? ;)
 
You mean, like Russia suddenly declaring claim to the entire Moon?

There shall be much laughter, I would think.

Who said it was "your moon" (I assume you mean the USA) to begin with? Just because Neil Armstrong stuck the US flag on the moons surface doesn't mean jack. The moon is Earth's only natural satellite, the key there is "Earth's" it belongs to this planet and cannot be governed by one nation, just like the entire planet cannot be ruled over by one nation (it could and has happened before, but it won't happen anymore).

Besides the Russians are pretty honourable people who are deeply invested in the co-operative space program, just as much as anyone else (including the USA). So many people still consider Russia to be untrustworthy, its not really fair.
 
What gives lunarregistry.com legal precidence over the moon? I don't really think that buying several acres of the moon from novelty sites would count as legal evidence when one decides to sue after lunar colonies are built on their land.
 
I distinctly recall Neil Armstrong said, "one small step for a man, one giant DIBS! for America!"

And then Buzz Aldrin stepped on the lunar surface and led the NASA team in a rousing USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

:rolleyes:
 
In that case, when the Americans return to the Moon, they'll be able to get takeout borscht the night they arrive, as they'll be too tired to cook.

Yeah, then we send them a piece of Moscow at a time until they meet our demands for Eskimo Pies and all the Dr. Pepper we can drink!

Bwa-ha-ha!

Methinks you take this thread too seriously.
