For example...
if aliens from another planet
were to arrive on our moon..

they would find on the
surface of the moon this photo:
http://www.universetoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/AS16-117-18840.jpg

Would they ask "What happen to the moon people?" Obviously someone came and left..


The problems with yous people in the 'scientific comunity'..is that
your theories are...limited.

Alien visitor of the Moon would not see anything on this picture, since 
photographic emulsions of colour-photos in the 60th have been quickly 
destroyed by uv-rays (which are abundant on the surface of the Moon).

It would only destroy the red channel...and get faded by the
sunlight..the blue channel would have details that can still be seen...

Also depicted in the first episode, unless my memory fails me. 

Is the Starmaker revealing that Earth won the war against the Mysterons and finished them off? 

Or, not for the first time, that he is an idiot/ Or a troll? 

To be fair, I do derive some amusement from his antics.

Not much war, really, just Teach Them a Lesson harassment, I think.
I always had the impression that if they'd wanted to the Mysterons
could have just turned the Earth off and still had time for breakfast.

Supposed the Mars was inhabited by Marsians, these people would have 
developed civilisations.

So there have been the equivalent to our cultural structures on ancient 
Mars, too, like tribes and states and so forth.

If Marsians had been as aggressive as we believe they were, they fought 
wars upon their ancient oceans. For this they needed ships and to build 
them, they needed wood.

So the Marsians cut down all their own forests, to build ships and all 
the other forests, to prevent the enemy to do so.

Then all the forest were gone.

And then the sun was shining directly onto the ground and heated that 
up. So the ground got bone-dry. Subsequently there was no more other 
vegetation.

Then the atmosphere heated up and also the oceans. This made the water 
evaporate and the atmosphere expand.

Then the atmosphere got blown away by the solar wind.

Then scroll down the article 'til the next story "Repulsive Progession" appears.  

The story will explain in detail what happened to the Martians.  And the story takes only three minutes to read!

"I" said me

Isn't the correct...usage,  ""Me" said I"?


'Me' is the body, and "I" is the conscience. So that would mean it is the body
that shot the arrow, not the "I".



"With my bow and arrow,..." 

Here again, it is the "my" that is the body.


me, myself, ...and I.
