Normally I'd be more excited about a moon mission, but I'd vastly prefer if any other nation was doing it. Can't really care about it when the US is bombing civilian bridges in Iran and then bombing the first responders (and as of today, apparently announcing genocide. Not their first time, I guess).

I do not want to see pictures of the moon taken by a country that starts illeagal wars, threatens it's allies and causes the oppresion of people who do not do as they say.

For humanity my arse.

@clive The lunar eclipse photo is so ethereal and visually perfect that it looks like the best CGI from a sci-fi movie. Amazing!

@clive it's a shame they're such small JPEGs, I wish they had released the full size ones or the RAWs.

(wait... can we FOIA them?)

@EvolLove @clive I'm not sure they realize that they need to build underground, but all of the large craters have a relatively shallow depth. So is the crust impenetrable? Or are they hoping to find caves and tunnels?
