[hijack] Are you as excited about the new movie as I am 
?[/hijack]
It’s about the only film I’m looking forward to for the remainder of this year. (Maybe Narnia…we’ll see.)
Stranger
Hmm, sex on the moon. Now THAT would be intresting.
Hopefully one of the ladies comming along for the ride will think so too!
Also I’m bringing a trampoline. And that in noway relates to the above mentioned. Unless you’re into that kind of thing. Then I’m all game.
I think the trampoline would get kind of old in a week.
Will there be cable?
I’d go, even if I had to pay NASA. (Hell, even if I knew I’d probably die on reentry.)
I’d go tomorrow, even if I knew it was a one-way trip.
(No hesitation at all if it was a first-in-line for the Biosphere 3 off-world colony deal, that is. I’d probably mull it over for a while if it was just a chance to live on the moon for a week and then take a vacuum-nap – but I think I’d go anyway.)
Hell yeah.
Me too, but what’s with the hydrangeas?
During my moon trip I plan to eat Space Food Sticks, play with Lem, the lunar module dog, walk around a whole lot, take approximately 12 quingigillion pictures, sleep in in the afternoons, and send video greetings to all the folks back home.
Yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes!
My mind is there all the time, anyway, it would be nice to pay it a visit once in a while.
Seriously, though. Yes. And hell yes again. There is no “why” or “why not”. There is only YES.
Look, Askia! A distraction!
beats Askia unconscious with a penmanship trophy and steals her spot in line
Seriously, though, I’m more inclined to agree with Mangetout. While a week on the moon, by itself would be awesome, I’m rather less enthusiastic about space flight, reentry in particular.
Hell yes.
Let’s go sign up everyone! Next DopeFest on the moon!
Moonfest? Count me in.
Now that is the hard part - though if it weren’t for librations, it’d be impossible.
Seems like I’ll be rising 60 before they go back up there. I’d go in a heartbeat.
Hell, yes. (Why the references to air tethers? You folks do remember a dozen Apollo astronauts in self-contained lunar suits, right?)
Do I get to pick the spot? I’d like to look for He3 in a polar crater.
So, in the 1960s NASA went from no manned spaceflight at all to a manned Lunar landing in less than a decade. Now, NASA boldy proclaims that it can get back to the Moon in only 13 years. Jim Lovell will be 90!
Oh man, no. A thousand times no. The whole idea seems to combine everything I don’t like – being confined in small spaces, wearing bulky clothing, sleeping in a bed that isn’t mine, eating questionable food, and the most important thing – not being able to get up and go home if I care to. Ugh. Thanks, but I’ll pass.
In this troubled and divisive time, when left snipes and right and right snipes at left, it’s nice to know that we dopers can all be brought together by our shared utterly unattainable fantasy.
Abso-fricken-lutely. I would do it even knowing I would die there. I mean, I would be one hell of a trivia question.
Q: Who was the only human to die on the moon?
A: Madd Maxx
Plus, I have a number of “experiments” that I need to test that those uptight folks at NASA have been neglecting for years. Not to mention I’m spending at least a day or two writing my name real big in the lunar dust. Only once, in 2060, for 7 days…
Great googly moogly, YES!
Just don’t take any pictures of my terrified face as I ride a controlled explosion up, up and away.
The cramped and inconvenient conditions would be a small price to pay for that kind of experience. Heck, I’ve put up with cramped and inconvenient (including being continuously seasick) for 5 weeks at a shot just to make money.
Ewww! Do you have any idea what those moon ladies look like?
Are there any sheep on this moon?
What’s up with this big rush to the moon anyway? Does Neil Armstrong need rescuing?
I’ll post to provide a token “no” vote.
No. What would I do on the moon for a week? If I had a week’s vacation with “all concerns aside”, I’d go to Paris or Rio or Aruba or something. Space and spaceships have never had much grip on my imagination, and I wouldn’t want to go through some cramped, unpleasant ordeal just for the bragging rights to say I’ve been on the moon. No appeal whatsoever.
