My wallpaper for the week comes courtesy of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. It's an artist's rendering of what the new moon lander could look like. Maybe. Someday. But I wonder if it will be in my lifetime.
Apollo 17 landed on the moon on 11 December 1972. Seventy-five hours later, on 14 December at 22:54:37 UT, man left the moon and has not returned since. It is too soon to predict whether it is NASA, China, or a private agency that first makes it back. But I can say for sure that if someone doesn't at least try, we never will.
Have a Great Weekend, Everyone - Aloha!

One thing is for sure. ESA won't be going or trying. Unless, maybe, they can hitch an almost free ride along with somebody else.
