Even one of those black boxes or maybe a crate made of diamond, even if it were REALLY indestructable, it may possibly have a seriously negative effect on the moon, such as a) knocking it out of orbit, if the package were huge enough (rediculously huge), or b) making these gigantic craters and cracks that would eventually break the moon apart.<BR/><BR/>But I really like your idea, it works marvelously in theory. You could always just send automated ships full of supplies up there, although that kinda defeats the whole low-cost thing. I dunno, I'm not as imaginitive as you, but I really like your idea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9601729.post-1159830431038906042006-10-02T17:07:00.000-06:002006-10-02T17:07:00.000-06:00Good luck salvaging the pieces of your base that s...Good luck salvaging the pieces of your base that savagely smashed into the face of the moon. They are going to be smashed into bits, or burried under feet of moon-dust. And thats only if you can get enough power into your gun on Earth to shoot the pieces at over 11 kilometers a second to break free of Earth's gravity, actually be a good enough aim to HIT the small target of the moon, and build a gun that big in the first place...) Give it up Shelton, you can't shoot stuff at the moon and expect it to make it, or make it in one piece. It sounds fun, but this idea wouldnt work. Physics says so. (Gravity of the Earth, force needed to get away from that gravity, motion of Earth and the Moon, momentum, impact velocity. Not mention things like electromagentism and ECONOMICS!
