OT - sippin on some ice cold "Moon shine..."
actually, they are not looking for a water source for earth, they are looking to see if there is water on the moon so that there will be no need to transpor****er from earth to the moon when they go on missions.
That said, as fascinated as I am by science I have always thought that space exploration was ridiculous and a complete waste of money and resources.
ETA-their theory also is that if there is water there, perhaps some day life could be supported and sustained there.

Hmm - maybe not a TOTAL waste. There have been quite a few things that come from NASA researchers and partnerships

Top Ten NASA inventions you might use:
10. Invisible braces
9. Scratch -resistant lenses
8. Memory foam (they love hawking those matresses)
7. Ear Thermometer (gotta love this one - especially if you've ever had your temp taken the only other non-mouth way )
6. shoe insoles
5. Long-distance telecommunications (thanks satellites!)
4. Adjustable smoke detector
3. Safety grooving for roads
2. Cordless tools
1. Water filters

Yeah....they are not going to be satisfied....until they look through one of our satellite "peephole" one day AND are shocked AND surprised that one of our Worst ENEMIES from another planet...is knocking at EARTH'S front door!
"Nosey-Azz Science Azzholes"........Hey eeee-zzzzzz
Had to speak up for my agency. But I'm not one of those science geeks. They already think they know erry thang!!
With the International Space Station (ISS) project nearly complete and with the retiring of the space shuttle, NASA has ambitions to return to the moon. In addition, Mars is also on the horizon. There have been talks of the moon being a possible outpost or pit stop for manned missions to Mars. One plan would be to use the moon and it's H2O supply (if any) to avoid having to bear the extra weight of hauling it up there from big green.
Now, on the other hand, that is a lot of $$ going up there just to look for water. What if they DON'T find any?? I can hear the Administrator now "Gidddde dayummm!!!!". BTW, he's the first brotha to head NASA: Charles Bolden. We moving on up.
