MOON Landing?

Which also might actually be less healthy. There is some truth to the idea that you need to be exposed to dirt for better immunity.

It's true. There are correlations between more technologically developed places (with more sanitation) and having far more hyper-immune disorders like allergies and Crohn's Disease than in places that don't have such a high emphasis on sterilization.

Supposedly there have also been successful attempts at "distracting" people with hyper-immune disorders' immune systems by introducing a benign parasite such as flatworms with lifecycles that are very unlikely to place their spawn in important organs.

"Where you live" as in... with kitties? ;)

Cats are only the most common hosts of Toxoplasma -- the problem with T. gondii is that it's fairly indiscriminate as long as it's inside a mammal. Dogs are fully capable of carrying T. gondii as well. It's just that non-cats are accidental hosts.

I'm no expert, but since dogs are boys & cats are girls, wouldn't the correct term for the latter be "hostess"?

You "half-lings" of the mythical place of "Australia" are so foolish! Cats are better than dogs for at least a million reasons! Toxoplasmia is nothing to be concerned about unless you are pregnant!:areyoucra

Why? the burden of proof always falls the person claiming something happened, not the other way around.

The burden of proof is on someone making an unsubstantiated claim, whether that claim is to prove a negative or a positive.

So Meow Mix expressed the reasoning for burden of proof perfectly well. There is plenty of evidence it happened, it has been proven, and is widely accepted with general consensus.

The suggestion that it hasn't happened is not the general concensus view, but the skeptic view, which is unproven therefore it requires substantiating.

This is interesting for the sake of it

Right: A glass spherule (about 0.6 mm in diameter) produced by a meteorite impact into lunar soil. Features on the surface are glass splashes, welded mineral fragments, and microcraters produced by space weathering processes at the surface of the moon. SEM image by D. S. McKay (NASA Photo S71-48109).

This rock could not have happened on earth because of our atmophere, would burn anything that small up, before it reach the ground.


Also when Apollo 11 went to leave the surface the master engine switch was damaged when they put their suits on to walk on the moon. Buzz aldrin stuck his pen in the switch. The engine only had a 50/50 chance of working to begin with.

They also almost ran out of fuel while landing.

We also gave rocks to a bunch of countries, who didn't complain they were earth rocks, like russia who would have during that time.

we went for sure and need to go back, there are important reasons like helium 3 there, as well as billions in resources.
