Necro for activity.

Regardless of whether or not they actually manage to land on the moon by that time, let alone put a base on it, the work they're doing into heavy lift rocketry alone seems pretty valuable. It's also good that they're apparently going to cooperate with other space agencies.

Now I am intensely grateful for close relations between Trump and Putin. If we get pulled into participating, NASA might actually see sane funding again. Start a second space race, but with more friendliness and less looming nuclear war! Better yet, four-to-eight of cooperation will make it difficult to pull out of diplomatically.

Haven't seen any real post-Primaries stuff on what Trump (or Hillary) thinks of space.

We have to go back to the pre-runoff era, and Trump's statements then (including awful diction) aren't encouragong.

Yeah, that's why I'm pleased. If there's one thing that'll get the Trump off his rump on space it's the idea that America isn't going to be the biggest and the best at space any more.

Trump is walking manure? You can plant your potatoes directly on him?

Nonono, he emits manure from his orifices. Including the main head-orifice.

I still believe Hugo is Huge Hackman in full wolverine attire for some reason. Maybe the super moon got me bad.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

Now we just need Cave Trumpson, and then we add moon dust and curtain experiments. Success! Also Clinton-ine is in control and releasing the neurotoxin on everybody but the scientists, so that's good too.

oh geez

that was supposed to be a veiled something

but it got too weird

TrumpxClinton ships are just no
