Hey, thanks for protecting our planet for millions of years.
We would like to take the opportunity to express our appreciation by turning you into our personal toilet.

We've already sent some white trash over there and it came back ...

my first thought exact :helpme

Why bother with the moon, just blast it in to space.

That's the dumbest thing I've heard and he's supposed to be some space genius?

That means your wife will send her in-laws to the moon too. Shrewd business plan.

No music? Well, that's really the only question, Icke really got it otherwise.

or why not send it back in time :1orglaugh

does it not seem most cost effective that the waste be re-cycled or treated or plain stored by private companies for tons of cash instead of seeking a solution in space?

Of course it makes more sense to setup Solar on earth, but the OP's subject is moon based, so...

But actually yes you can use Microwaves to transmit energy. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_power and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-based_solar_power

Why weren't people in the audience stoning this guy? It's bad enough that this guy is so clueless, but he's spreading his own ignorance to others, and probably charging people to hear it too.

Stoning? Are we jihadists or something? Some rotten eggs and tomatoes would be so much better alternative.

But really, probably the audience had paid for tickets and were listening fascinated.

How would you counter his arguments?

Last night the moon hit my eye like a big pizza pie. Deeno was right, it truly was amore. If it had been riddled with radioactive garbage that would have really sucked.

Don't fuck with the moon.

How about the studies about the Moon? And common sense, "It isn't real" is similar to "It's made of cheese".

Would he have us believe that we already know all that is knowable and therefore the only explanation is a hollow moon?

Threads like these are what keep me coming back to GFY....

What studies? They are just making guesses, but they don't like guessing that it's aliens for some reason.

He says it's an ancient spacecraft, and yes, it is hollow

What? "What studies?" LOL.

Studies about the Moon. You know, examining it from here, it's effects on Earth (like tide), and not to mention the evidence from the Moon itself and studies done there, like Moon rocks and so on. Studies, I can say it with only 4 languages, but I think you understand it best when I say it with English: "studies".

I'd hit him over the head with a couple of books about Science & Physics and then let Buzz Aldrin lay into him about what a disservice he is doing to mankind. Then I'd remind him about all the rock samples collected by the Apollo program and missions 11 and 17 (And how they were found to be 600,000,000 years older than any rocks on earth, and how we have been to the moon 9 times already. You can bounce a laser off the moon like they did on Big Bang Theory (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_L...ing_experiment).

Also anyone with decent algebra skills can easily calculate the mass of the moon using basic information. On Jul 19 1969 Apollo 11 orbited the moon for 2 hours at 1737 km from the lunar center.

When the orbiter was in orbit, it balances the gravity of the moon against its outward centrifugal force. This is why it didn't fall into the moon, and why things like satellites stay in orbit.

Knowing this information you can calculate the total mass of the moon. The solution and exactly how to do it can be found here : http://spacemath.gsfc.nasa.gov/moon/5Page19.pdf

(it's 7.34767309 × 10 to the 22 power kilograms by the way).

This guy is nothing more than a fool who just cannot comprehend that reality is what it is.

there is no argument, this is how he spends his afternoons when his mom goes to bridge and is off the internet...

I think he watched the Star Trek episode: "For the World is Hollow and I have Touched the Sky" and became a little obsessed.

But at least McCoy got some space punany that time.

Nuclear waste will eventually be a form of fuel.

That's basically impossible with our technology, the cost would be absurd.

"The speed a rocket needs to attain to reach the Sun: about 30 km/s, because it needs to cancel out Earth's orbital speed - so it is about twice as hard, in terms of speed needed, to reach the Sun as it is to reach the outer planets (about 4 times as hard in energy terms, because energy is proportional to speed squared)"

it's a trap

Sorry Mark, that stuff is bogus. I spent several years working in microwave telecommunications. Large scale, high power, long distance transmission of power via microwave does not work. Even if between two fixed points on the same continent...
If it worked then we would be powering homes with it. Or at least using it to send power to more remote towns and cities rather than laying millions of kilometers of very expensive copper.
