To The Moon in 2012

[Star explorer]

well since he is only 16 he probly won't be making it to the moon in four years even though he will be 20. but hey maybe in his middle age life he will build a rocket and fly to the moon you never know. besides building his own rocket he could become a nasa astronaught he is only 16. its just like any other teenager (including me) they still have a chance no matter how small it is until there over there 20s

At least, that's what I told Deke.

Ha ha you think you're the first and only to come up with that plan?

Well you're not.

Face it, you're not getting to the Moon in 2012.

Deke, you honestly believe that load of bull I fed you? I could read right through you all along! The only true part is the 7 by 7 by 7 spacecraft. And my age.

So because I outed your plans you're going to say you lied the whole time?

1) Typic reaction of a kid.
2) What if I had been serious? Then you had lied to me all along.

I think things have gotten a bit out of hand here. Might be a good time to step back.

At what age do people become cognisant as to how the World actually works? I think, by 16, a lot of people aspire to be astronauts - knowing there are risks. But one who plans to fly himself there - not knowing the insurmountable challenges?

Astronaut pilots have to go threw the military pilots training, then if they pass, they maybe, might have a 1% chance of getting into NASA, then a half chance to be added to the list of future missions.

There is no way someone individually can get into space, especially without a government funded program.

good idea, close the thread

 

[C3PO]

I'm up for it.

:ditto:

I've decided to close this thread after I was informed about it from a couple of our members.


To SpaceCowboy:

Although your dream of landing folks on the moon by 2012 would be really cool, I seriously doubt it will ever happen. Taking into account everything others have mentioned here about budgeting, design, construction, testing, and actually carrying out the mission is a very tall order in such a short period of time, especially given your company hasn't even been created yet! I think you will find it hard for anyone anywhere to truly believe you.

Furthermore I am not certain this isn't some kind of scam to obtain private and personal information about the members of this forum. For these reasons I am closing this thread and forbidding you from "recruiting" members of this board for your fantasy mission both in the public forums and in private messages
