    An Indian space probe I mean[^], not India itself. Though that would be pretty awesome. Anyone else think there is no point in crashing TVs into the Moon? Can't they ask NASA for some data? They do know NASA has landed on the moon a few times, right? It just seems short sighted. First we save costs by not caring what is left behind in orbit so increasing future costs. Some day the Moon is going to send India a clean-up bill.

    cheers, Paul M. Watson.

    They're dead certain that NASA is hoarding all the green cheese and claiming there's nothing there but rocks and dust. India has people to feed, and can't take the chance that NASA may never share the bounty, so they're going to take a peek for themselves.

          "A successful crash into the moon by the Indian space probe sent back it's final message...URGENTZ! Indian Space authorities were elated knowing that many US, UK and Candian space organizations would immediately reply with solutions and suggestion that would allow the Indian Space agencies to just sit back while they do all the work."

                "Hard landing" is an interesting euphemism for a 3,579 mph collision. :laugh:

                      Umm. This isn't "a fall." They are intentionally crashing it into the Moon. They aren't even trying to land it safely. They are doubtful it will even work after the crash. So they'll probably get a split second of impact data and then nothing, just a TV sized heap of twisted metal on the Moon's surface.

                      India. And the US and a few other countries. But India should still get a bill. Just hope there isn't a sacred cow grazing where the probe crashes eh ;)

                        are you sure whoever told you that wasn't talking about native indians (red indians)? by the way indians can drive as well as fly also just wait and watch until 2025 :-)

                                      are you sure whoever told you that wasn't talking about native indians (red indians)? by the way indians can drive as well as fly also just wait and watch until 2025 :-)

                                        I had submitted a very detailed and superb article, on how to do this. But somehow it never showed up on the site :(

                                          Don't we have new programmers still writing "Hello world" program? Or do you suggest them to google and download the binary, execute it, and enjoy watching the magic text on the screen? ;)

                                          ... because "hello world" and landing on the moon are totally the same thing. :doh: The correct answer is, you do not share space rocket technology because it's only a short hop between crashing a TV into the moon and crashing a fistful of warheads into someone's city.
