They are lit from below while the moon is back-lit, must be REALLY alien.

No kneed to feel like a heel, moon. I think you may have kick started a new GWR entry for DAD PUNS. If nothing else it puts you in the running. You know... a shoo-in.

That is not the moon. It's lens flare from the sun. You can't actually see the moon in this video. You would see the dark side of the moon if you were in the shadow.

Why does the son look like it's forward of the moon but casting a shadow downward at a 90-degree angle?

Someone help me with the science here.

You just want to get to the Moon and Mars soon so you can begin building up Skull Crater. I'm on to you, pal.

That would be great, but I would gladly settle for cheap travel to the moon on a pair of space elevators.
Strapping wings onto my arms and being able to fly like a bird in underground chambers always sounded like fun to me.

Somewhat similar.

I suspect that's a composite. Depth of field not deep enough to keep all the ants in focus, not to mention the sharp-as moon behind them...

Awww

What's the real story then? Did he actually say anything like that as his last words on the moon? (I don't know how to use Google.)

Neil Armstrong's last words on the moon. "Good luck Mr. Gorsky"


It seems when Apollo Mission Astronaut, Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon, he not only gave his famous "One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Mankind" statement, but followed it by several remarks - usual com traffic between him, the other astronauts and Mission Control.

Before he reentered the lander, he made the enigmatic remark, "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky." Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning some rival Soviet Cosmonaut, however, upon checking, there was no Gorsky in either the Russian nor American space programs.

Over the years many people have questioned him as to what the "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky" statement meant. A few months ago, (July 5th, 1995, Tampa Bay FL) while answering questions following a speech, a reporter brought up the 26 year old question to Armstrong. He finally responded. It seems that Mr. Gorsky had finally died and so Neil Armstrong felt he could answer the question.

When he was a kid, he was playing baseball with his brother in the backyard. His brother hit a fly ball which landed in front of his neighbors' bedroom window. His neighbors were Mr and Mrs. Gorksy. As he leaned down to pick it up, he heard Mrs. Gorsky shouting at Mr. Gorsky. "Oral sex, oral sex you want? You'll get oral sex when the kid next door walks on the moon!"

Dear Disappointed,

I think you misread the title. This was his Twitter post on the sun setting in the west and the moon rising in the east minutes apart. Something I never realized ever happens.

I also fixed the title. Had the sun setting and rising minutes apart. lol. My bad.

I'm not sure I would care to see Neil endorse any alcoholic beverage. You know, because of the kids.
