Title: Dark Side of the Moon Post by: notbatman on March 20, 2015, 07:47:53 AM I've tried to visualize the dark side of the Moon and this is what I'm getting. I see a giant skull face, the moon appears to be an artificial construct. Inside the eye sockets are terawatt stereoscopic imaging radar transmitters. The Moon need only turn and cast its gaze upon us should we anger it.

Where would that energy come from? Title: Re: Dark Side of the Moon Post by: Lethn on March 20, 2015, 08:15:19 AM I imagine space Nazi's.

The other side looks like this. http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130221005853/starwars/images/9/9d/DSI_hdapproach.png Title: Re: Dark Side of the Moon Post by: bitgeek on March 20, 2015, 05:24:46 PM I've tried to visualize the dark side of the Moon and this is what I'm getting.

Where would that energy come from? Even a 100 megaton of TNT explosion would not be enough, not even close. Its a whole different scale of energy required to something like that. I have not calculated the number, but if you said 1000000 nukes, then would it be more realistic.

Where would that energy come from? The Moon rotates on its axis every 27.322 days, having it turn 180 degrees would only be a matter of de-synchronizing it temporarily. Tesla has been famously quoted as saying he could move the earth if he could wrap a wire around it.

and you wanna scream and shout, cause decksperiment's playing the Dark side of the Moon.. Now that can be freaky when your already dis-orientated due to crowd consumption, lol..

Title: Re: Dark Side of the Moon Post by: nsimmons on March 21, 2015, 06:32:28 PM FYI, rough math assuming solid moon.
71701720.8413 Megatons to stop rotation, considering the largest explosion ever was about 50MT, we'd need 1.5 million of those. assume the moon is solid, workout the moment of inertia and kinetic energy.

Sound reasonable. Side note: It is true what nsimmons state, that the largest human made explosion ever was about 50MT, the Tsar Bomba. However it is a 3-stage hydrogen bomb, 100MT, but was scaled down to 50% for the test explosion.

Where in the future they used nukes to excavated on the moon and split it in half. This is what i think would happen. http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/timemachine/images/3/32/Timemachine02_moonboom.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20111007233838 |
