dunno if this as already been posted but............

why are the Americans spending 50 odd billion quid on a new spacecaft to go to the moon.

50 odd billion surely be put to better use down here on this rock.

this money would be able to wipe out a huge amount of world debt, feed millions of people who are starving in the world, provide homes, shelter etc... for people who haven't got them.

spending 50 billion for a few people to walk on the surface of the moon is way too much and what use is it going to be?

its just wrong, america is just wrong.

 

cos they never went to the moon back in 1969 it was all staged and these programmes about conspiracies seem able to prove it was all a con

 

so in conclusion then, its the the yanks being *****(wnkr)

 

On the face of it then it appears wrong.
However a lot has been learnt from space travel about our own planet, a lot of technology has come about as a result. The effects of hurricanes such as Katrina would almost certainly have been a lot worse withut space travel as it is that technology that has enabled us to have weather satellites in space so that these storms can be tracked. One comment I saw when many people had managed to evacute was "that is the value of the space programme".
And I think I read somewhere that the space programme only costs $50 a year per US citizen.

 

The conspiracy theories have been proved to be just that - theories, not fact.

 

Yes, we all know that the moon is actually cheese.

*looks at your profile picture* ff

Perhaps the money could be spent in a better way, but hey, we're talking about the US government here. Should they spend it on nuclear weapons and missiles and tanks instead?
Exploring space might be a good idea, because if we keep destroying our planet like we do now, we'll have to live elsewhere in 100 years!
Besides, I really want to go to space during my lifetime, so they'd better hurry up! (H)

 

at the time

the russians were leading the space race so the yanks had to come up wi summat

 

typical tyke

thick as ****.

It's been proved that all the conspiracy theories regarding the moon landing are utter tripe.

Bit like Barnsley going up.

 

RE: typical tyke

what about 1997 where were donny?

 

LOL

It was eight years ago, worst goal difference in Premiership history, five of the worst ten defeats in Premiership history and you want to brag about it?

Hows about living in the present. Will you start to mention the FA CUp win in 1912 next?

 

Doncaster Rovers have always lived in our Shadow.

A tinpot ground will not change that

 

RE: LOL

aye and we were runners up in 1910 when did donny win the cup??

 

I sense

a fear of falling down the South Yorkshire pecking order.

Must be bad to go from second best to smallest in 8 years.

 

RE: I sense

smallest have you looked at the league tables arent we above both donny and rotherham

 

RE: LOL

Never have, when was your last promotion?

We're on the up, you guys are on the way down.

 

RE: I sense

Is it the end of the season then?

 

RE: LOL

howd you make that out?? we are higher than we werew last season and you are lower so we are on the way up your going down

 

Heh heh.

Are you sure you're not a gunner?

 

RE: LOL

Must be bad if you want the season to finish in September. I'll wait until May myself.

 

RE: LOL
