NASA Reaches the Dark Side of the Moon

I recently read an article online about NASA saying they had reached the far side of the moon, they also had a video clip!  This video was recorded on January 19th of 2012.  These snapshots and videos are great because they can be used to study that side of the moon; the shots can also be used to give to students between fourth and eighth grade for them to stud the dark side of the moon with.  I think this is a great idea and that NASA is doing something to educate people.  I also think these snapshots and videos could possibly be useful, maybe they could show us something that we might have never known before, or maybe telling us something about the future, who knows?! I think what our space program is doing is very useful and important; what are your thoughts on this?

  1. I saw the video and it was really cool. To think that that part of the moon has never been seen before in astonishing. I hope the hype and interest sparks a public interest to attempt to go back to the moon.
    Seeing as we have not put a man on the moon since 1972 I personally would like to see another lunar trip conducted. I hope NASA can get the grants and the interest they need to put another human on the moon. Do you think something like this is good for our economy? or is it a waste of money?
