It's a weird angle shot of the Moon

Oh ok... there's 0 proof helium exists on the moon...

The abundance of helium-3 is thought to be greater on the Moon than on Earth, having been embedded in the upper layer of regolith by the solar wind over billions of years,[5] though still lower in abundance than in the Solar System's gas giants.[6][7]

@NeoGhost thought to be but not proven or actual evidence

I want proof

i agree they make a lot of claims

Ok

without much evidence

The moon is a big pile of useless shit

@Rat King It's a combination of 2 sources. 1: Moon rock analysis. 2: The fact that the helium-3 isotope is a very common product of thermal nuclear reactions, aka solar wind, hence the lunar soil being saturated with it. It's quite well filtered by the Earth's magnetic field so it never makes it to Earth.

Even if the moon has helium it's useless

We've made more helium-3 from nuclear weapons testing than natural helium-3 that exists on Earth lol

The moon is a balance weight

So is that a good thing or a bad thing

@Rat King What's it balancing?

Then moon controls the tides

@OffensiveTaco It's a " thing "... not good or bad.

Fair enough

oh, you mean the helium-3 made from nuclear testing?

The moon actually controls the ocean tides

It's just a thing 😛

@Rat King Most of it, but so does the Sun 😛

the moon is a dried up ovary

every year the moon moves 2 inches away from the earth

@Rat King Sooo... you're saying I've got time? 😄

I said 2 inches

Could be 2 miles

Can't remember

Yeah, you keep saying 2 inches a lot. What are you really thinking about? 🤔

Haha

🤔

Jk, it is about 2 inches per year 😛

If the earth is 500 billion years old

How close was the moon then?

There's actually a few dedicated telescopes that make the measurement every few weeks. The most well known is the Apache Point Observatory in New Mexico. They use a huge 6megawat laser and bounce it off the Moon... A glorified radar gun 🤣

You can also do it low tech style with a HAM radio but it won't be superbly accurate.

@Rat King The moon didnt exist 500 billion years ago

I've seen people bounce their own voices in an audio steam off the Moon for a distance ping 🤣
