Of course I knew about the moon. Not many people knew that the moon has its own moon though.
I heard about the moon and I know it is made of cheese. But I have to admit that I don’t know how this giant cheeseball ended up in the sky. Perhaps a Cosmic Cow was involved? I imagine the Hindus have the answer. If so, please enlighten us Americans.
I’m still not convinced this moon exists. I mean if we really landed on the moon in 1969, why wouldn’t some airline at the time, like Pan Am, have been selling tickets for a flight there?
Fish swimming at the edge of my consciousness.
I not only knew what the moon was, I was the Moon. In the school play. I had this big yellow circle with a hole for my yellow painted face. I shouted out my 1 line, and then the stars danced around me while the lead character sang a song.
And then a rocket smacked into your eye?
Sounds of disgust from the people who got mooned.
I was 21 months old at the time, so I didn’t know what anything was unless it was within reach right then.
We were elementary school kids. The school district would never give us that kind of special effects budget. One of the stars kicked me in the nads.
I still, to this day, insist the moon is a movie set.
I didn’t know what the moon was until I saw a Twilight book cover. Now I’m good to go.
Well, it is. It’s cheaper to film kung-fu films there, everybody weighs less so you don’t have to spend so much on wire crews to lift everyone in the air for their high kicks.
Well, I was actually born on July 20, 1969, so I can honestly say, no. I did not know what the moon was before that date.
However, I’m pretty sure I had it figured out by the time I was, I dunno, three years old or so.
I know it’s blue, and that it saw me standing alone, without a dream in my heart.
M-O-O-N spells WIN.
Sure, what child hasn’t stood in the yard some summer evening and been told by their parent about the même in the moon?
That’s no moon – that’s a space station.
I was four. I didn’t even know we landed on the moon at the time, let alone what it was. I think my parents might have tried to get me to watch the historic event, but I have no memory of it.
I was -18 in 1969, not old enough to have a brain that could hold knowledge ^_~
I knew what the moon was from a very early age, though.
I was 25 when we landed. I knew it was a rock but everybody was guessing how deep moon dust might be or it it was a hard rock with no dust.
My moon is so big it has its own moon, and my moon’s moon is bigger than your moon.
