Paint the Moon???

[Benm]

That might indeed very well be visible.

But the 'paint the moon' moon idea from that website (from 2001...) is fundamentally flawed, and would not stand a chance of achieving a result even if all humanity pointed their dilda at the moon at the same it. Even if everyone owning any laser pointer would participate, it would be well beyond a million times short of creating a visible result.

I wonder why the people behind that website went through all the trouble, when they could have determined it is not possible in 5 minutes of crude calculation.

What if you want to light a match that's on the moon or pop a balloon?

Where can I buy this?

NORAD is the cheapest seller, i think.

Uhm, wait, aren't you serious, right ?

 

[Invader Zim]

Of course not .

u can probably get some for free. remember the soviets had a number of nuclear submarine accidents and some are still lying on the ocean floor with nuclear tipped ICBMs

btw, minuteman might not have enough delta-v to achieve a lunar transfer orbit coz it was meant for sub-orbital strikes. this means it probably doesn't even have enough power to achieve Low Earth Orbit, let alone lunar transfer hehehe.

That sucks. I already ordered it.

Maybe it won't be visible for us down here, but it sure would be a spectacular sight for the man in the moon.

Well, i think a nuclear explosion on the moon can be visible enough also from here ..... nuclear fireworks, yay !
