CHINA.

See the link below. From the article:

"(CNN) -- China's Chang'e-4 mission, the first to land on the far side of the moon, is shedding light on one of the moon's biggest mysteries, according to a new study.

For all of the jokes suggesting the moon is made of cheese, researchers have actually been trying to understand the composition of the lunar mantle, which exists between the crust and the core.

Impact craters are how researchers can learn more about the moon's evolution and how it formed. When asteroids and other objects collide with the moon, the crust is cracked and pieces of the mantle reach the surface. So the Yutu-2 rover went looking for some of those pieces. The study detailing its findings was published Wednesday in the journal Nature."

I wonder how much this cost. Maybe BARRY. could investigate that and give us a report.

So, they will see us on the Dark Side of the Moon?

Were they ticking away the moments of a dull day when they came up with this idea?

Did it cost "Money"?

Enough.

Didn't that happen back in January?

I don't think they will see anyone on the Dark Side of the Moon. If they do, it will be a real story. Cigars for everyone.

Per the article, it did, but it is a headline this morning. Slow news morning?

Whoever is running the Moon needs to get control of its borders.

Build a wall between here and the moon, and the ChinaMexicanadians will pay for it!

There IS no far side of the moon, really. As a matter of fact it's ALL far.

It’s a headline today because some scientific findings from the rover were published yesterday in Nature.

So just wondering.....is the moon as flat as the earth?

It cost nothing. They did it with our technology.
