The Modacity Space Race

photos taken on the moon can't be in colour. the atmospheric density(or lack thereof) prevents proper particle refraction, and thus colour cameras end up taking photos that look like grey blobs. also NASA had photoshop back in 1969, thanks to a time travel device built around tsiolkovsky's cryonically preserved brain.

1) Wasn't trying to be scientifically accurate. Was going for kitsch. I just used Google.

2) Way to be a Debbie Downer about it, shit.

those of us who're outspoken on these subjects are taken away by men in blue vans and implanted. we can no longer record what we mean, and are thus forced to spread with oblique words the truths so callously taken from us.

What the hell?


Aeroywn, are you the one who hid all the water???

[Rob Oplawar]

No, it was me. As some of you may remember, I used to live on the moon before I went to college. Remember that they haven't actually found water per se, they've found H2O in the soil. And, well, when you gotta go you gotta go, and when you've got all that open space you don't really need to be too discerning about where you do your business.

You told me you were from mars you son of a bitch.

If that were true accurate, then we wouldn't be able to take pictures in colour at all in space because there is no atmosphere to speak of there either. Unfortunately for your argument, we can. I think the washout in the pictures is due more to a combination of the massive glare from the surface and the primitive camera technology of the time.

It's kinda funny actually.

Well, if you're gonna be a smartass, at least try to make it funny...=|

He didn't have to. He really intended for people to take his post seriously so we could laugh at those taking him seriously.
