Hiya Cadets,

Here's a spot where you can post anything interesting you might hear in the next dozens of hours while you listen to the real-time audio of the Apollo 11 mission from 40 years ago. Read my post about it, or click over to We Choose The Moon to learn more.

I gotta admit, having a sitestreaming audio in psudo real time is really awesome.  You gotta love the feel that people of the late 60's must have gotten from listening to the thing on their shortwaves.

Yeah, we went there, found rocks and dirt, and haven't been back   Sad thing is, a moon base is probably key to getting off earth and going to say Mars or something.

Something that always got me about the space program, is how much stuff we bring back from space, such as water, how come nothing was ever set up there to just store stuff?

Anyhow, the site is cool, check it out, there's lots of interesting little things to read and a realtime audio thingy that's mostly boring, but does have cool stuff in it.
