This is pretty cool. I still say we have the collective technology to build and maintain a prison colony on the moon. Prison overpopulation a problem?? To the moon, Alice! To the moon! Bang. Zoom...




"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

The rover is a LOT bigger than I thought it would be. I was thinking something the size of a desk; NOT something the size of an SUV. Or slightly bigger... Eek
