is there any planning to hold olympics on moon?

how are you supposed to swim on the moon? what about snowboard? i think it is pretty hard to do sports without much gravity.

I'd like to a base on the moon, where we can launch our craft to explore Mars.\n\nBut I do not think it will happen in my lifetime.

No, there's nothing really to see on the moon, and the environment is a bit harsh to do much of anything without a spacesuit.\n\nMaybe in a few hundred years, we will have more advanced technology that lets us visit other places more easily.

Several people have written books trying to disprove our landing on the moon.  I have not actually researched this, but for one thing, supposedly there is no dust on the moon like the ton of dust our astraunats walked through that day.  The photos have been disputed as made up and I believe our corupt government is capable of pulling this off.....)(

Not anytime soon, no. First, we have to send people back to the moon and then do manned missions to Mars before we can go that far into the solar system!

No, that is not even possible. Even if an explosion big enough to do the job were set off on the Moon, if it were set off at the Moon's south pole it would push the Moon away from the Earth, not toward it. And nobody on Earth, not the US government, not anybody, has the ability to make an explosion that big anyway.

A large part of the motive to put men on the Moon was political --- the space race with the former USSR.\n\nAs someone else pointed out in answering your question, mankind MUST develop the means to tap into the immense resources that exist on other bodies in our Solar System. If we don't our species is doomed---if we don't destroy ourselves first. Mankind can not stay locked on this planet forever and survive.\n\nThe lunar landings were our first baby steps away from home.

Yes. I believe the original idea was to build a rocket base from which to explore the solar system. But somebody realised the same thing could be done from Earth via an orbiting space station for a fraction of the cost.\nThe only other reasons for going to the moon were - \n1. To stop the Russians setting up a military base there.\n2. To collect moon rocks.\nWhen the US realised that a Russian moon base wasn't practical, and they had souvenired as many moon rocks as they were ever likely to need, they never bothered to go back.

There are a lot of unanswered questions surrounding the moon landings. Like why, after 40yrs, and with highly advanced computers etc, do we not have some sort of permanent lab up there or a large telescope of some sorts. These would benefit scientific research no end.

Well, I hear, don't know if this is true, that China is presently re-creating NY City.  For the Olympics.  Cool huh, I am sure it must be out of the wilderness.

I own a very fine acre of the light side of the moon. It's kinda left a bit from the middle. I could send you a map.

You know something is wrong with this picture.  There is the Olympics and the senior Olympics but no inbetween Olympics.  I think you could actually be onto something here.  I suggest that you get a committee together and begin the process of starting up an "Olympics for Late Blommers". We are  missing our chance here, after all what about all of us late bloomers?

China has Started a manned Space programme and has said it's aim is to land on the Moon.\n\nSo the Yanks will Try to get get there first.\n\nBut their Space programme is still not up and running properly since the Columbia disaster.

none *in* the moon, but 12 have landed *on* the moon.\n\nsee link below for pix of the famous 12.

Fast cars and submersible boats?  Man on the moon?\n\nShoot next your gonna tell me the Cold War is over and the Empire State Building is the tallest building in New York!?!\n\nWe will land on the moon again.  It will house launching and repair facilities for more aggressive space travel.  Its unique gravity and lack of atmosphere will also make it a more viable environment for Medical Research.  \n\nThe Dark Side will be developed into a state of the art incarceration facility housing Earths worst criminals and those that believe our entire life is one hoax after another.\n\nCan't wait.

maybe you would want to measure the helium content on moon and compare it to earth.

Yes, I believe man has really visited the moon. Propaganda for what purpose? To beat the Russians? Please don't drink any kool-aid.
