This whole mission has just been made of awesomeness, not only did it bring us the best newspaper headline ever "Nasa Bombs Moon" but also Hitchhiker references, awesome.

The mission was a success. They got data from the probe of the impact of the booster and as far as I know also from the Lunar Orbitter (can't remember if that is the name though). True nothing could be seen from Earth but that was a best case scenario anyway. The important thing is that data was gained and science is being done on that data.Da Joz said:

The child looks up and with eyes too wizened for his features, remarks... "We don't go to the north side..."
I'd probably like to chill there, reminds me of "we don't go to ravenholm"
Anyway this was epic. I hate twitter, but I love the HG. Its nice to know that no matter how educated you are and how many millions are on your budget, people can come together with literature.
ahem. "good" literature.
Just think, if DNA were around these days, he'd probably have a Twitter account and a blog, and he would have been cracking jokes about the moon bombing left right and center.
That was a sad computer class the day he died.
