hmm doesn't really matter now i think.. cos everyone's going back to the moon now
2004 that bush guy ask nasa to go back to moon
2005/2006 europe spacecraft SMART 1 was supposed to take photo of Mare Tranquillitatis which is where Apollo 11 landed and everyone don't believe. so they supposed to prove it either happen or nv happen.
in the end, after they say they going to take photo of it, i can't find any news of whether success or not but they did take photo of some other craters. dunno what happen la.
2007 august this year japan's spacecraft will go to the moon orbit to study it for future visiting by japan astronauts. the interesting thing is that NHK (japan tv station) also built a High Definition TV Camera to put on the spacecraft so that they can beam HD "Earth"rise video and other HD Space movies to earth.. (Earthrise means u see the earth rise from the moon.. instead of the moon/sunrise on Earth).. i'm interested to see this HD thingy lol
2008 US will return to moon orbit since bush say so and hope to find water ice at the lunar poles, if got then good lor got water.. if dun have then too bad but they still have to go to the moon just maybe can't stay long or have to send water there.. either way bush sae must go so they must go.
india and china also launching stuff.. yea.. actually US will be the last to get there..
