Kamikaze moon mission kicks up dust, maybe diamonds?

Posted by : TheFatherMind on Saturday, October 10, 2009 - 12:55 PM PST (Hits:614)

It kick up ice?  It kicked up GOLD?  Maybe it kicked up Kryptonian Rock.

Yesterday NASA fired a rocket into the moon to kick up debris and analyze it.  Following there after "William Harwood" wrote this well written article on cnet discussing it.

<rant>The title of the article is "Kamikaze moon mission kicks up dust, maybe ice?".  Why did he say maybe ice?  After reading his very well written article I felt a bit mislead.  The editors of these articles will say ANYTHING they want in the form of a question to make you believe something is there or true that is not.  He states very clearly in his article that the representative from NASA totally refused to make any speculation as to what was contained in the debris.  They got some spectroscopic data near the impact point that showed a smear or light that they did not believe to be frome the impact.  It was also stated that "it could be methane, it could be hydrocarbons or organics".  They chose to write "maybe ice?" instead of "looking for ice" to imply that something within the article you are about to read firmly depict ICE.</rant>
