1: Do you think the earth has been visited by life from other planets?
2: Would you ride a spaceplane into orbit?
3: Should humans return to the moon?
4: Have you touched a moon rock?
5: If you are old enough, where were you when man walked on the moon?
My answers:
1: Do you think the earth has been visited by life from other planets? I doubt it is carbon and oxygen based and I don't think we would recognize it if it walked down the street.
2: Would you ride a spaceplane into orbit? If it was a comfortable as an airliner, yes.
3: Should humans return to the moon? Yes. For a fraction of what we spend on defense each year, we could.
4: Have you touched a moon rock? A couple of times in the Smithsonian.
5: If you are old enough, where were you when man walked on the moon? We were living on the farm, my parents bought their first color TV so we could stay up late and watch.

1 - 4 No.
ReplyDelete5. At school in the arts building where we watched a terrible black and white tv set with a terrible picture.
One of those rare moments when the world stopped and watched.
Delete1: Do you think the earth has been visited by life from other planets? Doubtful
ReplyDelete2: Would you ride a spaceplane into orbit? Just to orbit? No.
3: Should humans return to the moon? I would have to understand what the benefits would be. I know useful technology was developed as a result of the first moon program, but it could have been developed at a fraction of the cost of a moon program.
4: Have you touched a moon rock? I had forgotten. Yes. At the Air & Space Museum.
5: If you are old enough, where were you when man walked on the moon? Working as a camp counselor in Rockaway, NY.
It was a pretty summer day in the midwest
Delete1. I do.
ReplyDelete2. I have little desire for that.
3. I'm still not sure why we are truly going again.
4. I have not.
5. I wasn't even 6 yet. I was bored and changed the channels on the tv. It was all the same feed.
The moon walk feed was a couple of guys walking around taking soil samples and picking up rocks.
DeleteI was 12 years old on the date of the moon landing, summer holidays from school, living with my parents and sister at home, watching it on our b&w tv.
ReplyDeleteIt was an exciting time. I was 11.
Delete1: Do you think the earth has been visited by life from other planets? Yes, and they gave it a lousy review on Travelocity
ReplyDelete2: Would you ride a spaceplane into orbit? Do they have warm nuts in first class?
3: Should humans return to the moon? Yes, and they should stay there. I'm tired of them living next to me.
4: Have you touched a moon rock? Yep, and my hand didn't start glowing, or fall off, or anything.
5: If you are old enough, where were you when man walked on the moon? In the family room watching in amazement.
Fly Me to The Moon,
Delete1: Do you think the earth has been visited by life from other planets? Yes
ReplyDelete2: Would you ride a spaceplane into orbit? Yes
3: Should humans return to the moon? By all means. I look forward to that happening.
4: Have you touched a moon rock? Yes, once
5: If you are old enough, where were you when man walked on the moon? In my childhood home in Quincy Illinois, watching it on an old black and white TV with the rest of my family.
The color spectrum was very black and white from the moon, most of the color was what man brought with them. There was a boom on color TV sales that summer.
DeleteSuch cosmic questions for a sunday. I vote no aliens have been here.
ReplyDeleteWhat if, we are all alien, sent here to colonize this planet as another one was dying?
