Google has detailed pictures of the Moon's surface. Look at the incredible detail! moon.google.com/ |

I love when you close in the image turns to swiss cheese!
Man that moon surface is ugly though! I'll stay here on earth for now...

Indeed; very cute, that cheesy photo.
Anytime I see closeups of the moon, I get misty-eyed for the times I met Buzz Aldrin at the Space Symposium. Once, I was even able to give a talk with him (when I was in 9th grade) to some grade schoolers about why space is fun. I remember that I was going to bring him the Nintendo Power issue that had all the maps for Starfox (he said he loved playing that game back then on the SNES), but I couldn't find it in time.

Truth be told, I didn't realize quite how good I had it until I was no longer going to those Space Symposia. I guess I had a good time in junior high that way  |

If you pull away... the moon gets very small, about the size of a sound stage that would be effective for filming the first moon landing. Just throwing that out there. A great google site is the earth version, unless you have a MAC... earth.google.com/-Radar |

If you pull away far enough from the Earth version, it looks smooth and almost blank---almost like the minds of conspiracy theorists who think the moon landing was faked.  Just throwing that out there. |

You are welcome to believe everything you are told. Personally, if I was running the government, I would lie to you when I thought it was for your benefit. Should I have any less assumptions about my elected leaders?
I like it when my government lies to me. I don't want to know how close the asteroid is coming to kill us, I don't want to know under a grass field, men in suits are torturing a man for information. These things aren't my business.
But years from now, once they have proven they were serving us by lying, tell us the truth, or just let those who seek it find it. -Radar
