Lunar Explosion Bears Investigating
This blog would like a spacecraft to photograph the area where the lunar explosion occurred.We could possibly ascertain what kind of space rock hit the Moon.Was it a meteor or even a small asteroid?Exactly how large is the crater it left?The incident also indicates that there are some rare hazards associated with human exploration of a moon which has no atmosphere for celestial objects to burn up in.
On the other hand,human explorers are far more at risk because of the lunar surface receiving radiation bombardment from cosmic rays,solar storms and and even gamma rays.It could be so intense,they could immediately fall ill with radiation sickness,a recent German study suggests.

Who Invented the Telecom Satellite?
It was the science fiction author and futurist Sir Arthur C. Clarke CBE (1917-2008).He correctly perceived that geostationary satellites would make ideal telecom relays.He made this discovery while serving as a Royal Air Force officer in World War II.Clarke wrote a number of highly regarded scifi novels,including Childhood's End;2001:A Space Odyssey;and Rendevous With Rama.He had a first class degree in mathematics and physics from King's College in London.Clarke spent the last three decades of his life in Sri Lanka,where he had gone to scuba dive.He also hosted the TV series Arthur C.
