NASA’s Big Hit: LCROSS Impacts Moon
- sp332 17y agoNASA put up a twitter feed for LCROSS as it was approaching. Check out its last words: http://twitter.com/LCROSS_NASA http://twitter.com/LCROSS_NASA (It's top-posting, so I put a chronological version here: http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/174096756/m/912000971041?r=718000971041#718000971041 http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/174096756... )
- maximilian 17y agoI tried to wake up to watch the impact live, but 4:20am was very early and the alarm got switch off very soon after it went off... Its a pretty zany idea though, i gotta hand it to NASA for a cool experiment.
- dmfdmf 17y agoI drove out to Moffett Field in Mt View to see the show. It was pretty weird driving on to the base at 3:30am and I was impressed to see probably about 4-5000 people there. They had a giant 50ft screen and an excellent sound system, tent area for the kids/families and concession stands for food and drink (coffee was critical at that hour). Kudos to Nasa-Ames for putting on such a great event. As far as the actual impact, I saw nothing and like most people I was a bit disappointed.
