BAD HARDWARE WEEK

Who says? Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, the second man walked on the Moon.

Where he said that? In France.

Who said it earlier? Theoretical physicist and astrobiologist Paul Davies.

And even earlier? Science fiction writer Jules Verne in 19th century in his novel From the Earth to the Moon. As you know, Victorian age technology wasn't enough to conquire even the Moon.
So he used brave people to get the Moon and REMAIN there, because the only available technology wan't enough to return them back.
The names od those people: Michael ARDAN (pretty close french spelling of Aldrin), Nicholls (quite close permutation to Collins). Please note one more permutation of Ardan and Collins names !.

Where they were from? From France too.

How they reached the Moon orbit? By super gun.

Who created the best gun at the moment of Verne Moon mission concieved? Englishman Armstrong.

Where Moon shot was made? From the place only 300 kilometers from Cape Canaveral. Well, that was called good prediction. Some 100 years earlier.

Is today exists any plan to shoot supplies by gun out of the Earth? Yes, there is. By two stage shells.


The only really unsolvable problem, as I see?
The men you initiated current NASA Mars mission initiated the tide of terror suicide missions world wide. Would be there some patent right infringements on suicide mission?
How the patent disputes would be solved. What if one of sides wouldn't be satisified with the court descision. How to solve that conflict peacefully?
