If I was in the Space Agency I would just load up one of the rockets or probes they have with a few tons of blue paint and splash it over the moon. It would be a great P.R. exercise. It would prove they could actually fly to the moon. I suggested it before but there was just stunned silence... But why not? Then we could all look up and see some evidence of the space program... [I'm sure it wouldn't be that difficult to make a "mark" on the moon we could see through a reasonably small telescope from earth] Thank you. Hare Krishna!
