Or it's a place where the world governments have been storing nuclear waste. You know, like in Space 1999. |

the Mayans were really big on mathematics and astronomy, so their calander, instead of being based on earth's revolution around the sun, is based on sol's revolution around the center of the galaxy. modern mathematicians found that the Mayans were off by about four hours, last I heard. 2012 is the last year of the current Mayan calendar. many stupid people read this as OMG END O' THA WURLD! but it's actually just the Mayan new year. The Hebrew calendar is similar. |

Arrrgghhh, there's no oxygen in space to make a bomb explode. It's physically impossible. The bomb would just smack into the moon and go 'clunk'. |

.... That is not neccessary how explosions work. An explosion is a rapid expansion from a source. The expansion creates the force. Yes explosion that are fromed purely from heat expanding the air will not work... But it is more then possible to create an explosive that contains its own materials to expand suddenly and to send out shrapnel. Effective as it would be on earth? No... but still possible. |

And if you impregnate an explosive fuel with oxygen it will ignite in space. That and it wasn't a bomb, it was a rocket, its impact force was supposed to cause the explosion. |

In space, if that was ignited, wouldn't it expand and then just kind of implode? And Dan, I realize that. I've just been around people lately who think that NASA are going to try to hit the moon with an explosive bomb that needs oxygen. |

I'm pretty sure NASA would know which type of explosive or the different requirements should it be required. I doubt they'd have launched a rocket and at the last minute go: "Crap! We used the wrong explosive! *facepalm" |

considering we already have a flamethrower/rocket that could work in space i think making a space bomb would be simply a matter or supplying it with its own oxygen...look up hypergolic fuel. it was a joke anyway why the rage over it? either way hitting it with a bigass rocket makes the moon know where it stands, weve put up with its shit for too long lol. |

Although some may say it would only cause damage on the outer skin of the asteroid. The only absolute way to destroy an asteroid is to send 2 shuttle teams of celebrities to drill a hole into the core of the asteroid and place nuclear bombs inside. |

Space. A place that is full of mysteries. Did you know that there is still gravity out in space? Just very little of it. Why do you think astronauts feel weightless? It's because they're in a constant free fall towards Earth, meaning that they are moving along with the thing that they are in. Though I'm sure you people already knew this. |

At least one of the celebrities would have to die in order for that to work. Asteroids require human sacrifice. The ritual usually includes the sacrifice choosing, in the most dramatic way possible, to die so their loved ones may live. The ritual also includes the use of music (perhaps Aerosmith) and unrealistic sound effects.
Umm... The cosmic muck? Universal sand dune? What shade is this beige? The top ten from their website. I'm leaning towards skyvory or primordial clam chowder. |

I prefer magnolia. It may look small compared to the rest of the universe, but look up close and inside, and you'll see it's actually quite large and spacious. |
