Live: Moon Bombing!

NASA TV will broadcast live coverage of the LCROSS impacts with expert commentary 3:30 a.m. to 7 a.m. PDT on Friday, Oct. 9, and also broadcast a post-impact news conference a few hours after impact.

You can get NASA TV here.

So, what happens if they drop the bomb on the moon and it just, like, splits in half?  Does earths gravitational field get all screwy?  And then we die?  Really hope that doesn’t happen.

Wind up battery …

In theory, this might be a genius idea.  In reality, I think I’m probably just too lazy to spin my AA battery for 20 minutes to get a full charge.  If it were real, I suppose it could be a lifesaver … like, say, the next time you’re stranded in the middle of nowhere and your handheld GPS runs short of juice.
