I'm sure that all the countries secretely are wanting to be the one to "take over" things, and "win" the moon. Could you just picture all these countries, racing in shuttles, etc... to the moon, and trying to "own" it? OMG, the comedy of it all... but, then again, I'm shut up, in my room, almost 24/7.... all I've got it time... time to think... time to dream.

Yes Heck, that I do remember. But, you know what I'm saying.. about "owning" the moon, and using it to harness some power over the earth, or whatever.
Whidden, that would be a trip.
I think about the movie: The Fifth Element. Remember that ship that was like a HUGE ass floating hotel, with an ocean on it? HOLY CRAP! That's what I wanna go and live on.

U.S. and Russia signed this treaty during the Space Race making the moon like international waters and prohibits anyone from putting WMD's up there. Can only use it for peaceful purposes... for now I guess.
