One way mission to the moon

Post by Atheist-Lite » Thu Dec 09, 2010 12:07 pm

What would be the cost benefits? A chance to test the Mars one way ticket nearer to home? America could have a man, a brave man, back on the moon within a decade? :naughty:

America won't do it, too risk-averse. China might do it.

Did the lady who claimed the Sun go for the full package and claim all celestial bodies? If so, we may have to ask permission before going.
