• OK! TIt's timne to end this cosmic bogeyman BS about the hazards of lunar dust. - Jacob Samorodin - 11/18/2006 6:49:05 PM
  • Agreed! It's time to end this cosmic bogeyman BS about the hazards of lunar dust. - Ken Murphy - 11/19/2006 6:30:07 PM
    • re: Naming games to solve engineering problems?... - Chris Vancil - 11/19/2006 11:53:21 PM
      • Please clarify... - Ken Murphy - 11/22/2006 10:07:59 PM
        • re: Sure... - Chris Vancil - 11/25/2006 3:17:16 AM
          • I guess you'll just have to forgive Ken his ignorance of the topic, Chris (n/t) - E.P. - 11/25/2006 8:05:08 PM
            • re:I think you're confused I doubt Ken is ignorant just focused in a totally positive direction toward lunar exploitation. It's a bit like Lunar CAPS and you. - Chris Vancil - 11/26/2006 6:31:24 AM
      • it looks like it would make great fire-brick (n/t) - Scott Evil - 11/20/2006 10:59:12 PM
      • Well it's partially magnetic, so there's one solution - SDF - 11/20/2006 2:20:39 PM
      • Naming games: here's a few from the Mars Society. - E.P. - 11/20/2006 1:27:37 AM
        • re: You know Ed, when someone start name calling and try to change the subject they usually have lost the argument. (n/t) - Chris Vancil - 11/22/2006 1:43:43 AM
  • re: Not sure where you are coming from. Dust on the Moon is an engineering problem yet to be solved. - Chris Vancil - 11/18/2006 11:23:46 PM

            • Can you document that the reflectors have degraded? - et - 11/20/2006 7:23:02 PM

      • OK, you have a point there - R.L. - 11/19/2006 3:44:53 AM
        • Three. Thermal cycling and radiation belts. Also,no gyros needed. - et - 11/20/2006 9:42:28 PM
          • Again, no attitude.... - R.L. - 11/21/2006 3:49:01 AM
