Astronomy & Space - June 2006

I am going to buy a telscope. My purpose is to just watch stars, not to take a picture or anything. I'd like to see nebula, galaxy more than planets(Mars, Jupiter, etc). I prefer 8" aperture. Here's what I like best. --> http://telescopes.com/products/celestron-starhopper-8-inch-dobsonian-25831.html#

I love that telescope. I reli wanna buy it. However, I'd like to know what eyepiece will be good for my purpose of watching? Again, I am gonna watch mainly nebula, galaxy, etc.

How authenticated is the sale of land on moon? There are many realtors selling land on moon. Is it real that land on moon is on sale? Can we trust those companies about their authenticity?
I mean, how can they own moon to be able to sell it?

Surely, if a body is propelled verticaly from Earth, even at a low speed; as long as this force is kept applied for long enough, wouldn't the time come when the body would be free from gravity and travel on even when the force has ceased?

ok i understand the possiblities of space, but at the same time there are more possiblities on our on planet, on land and in the sea. We know life is in the ocean, we think its in space. And on top of all that our oceans have resourses we can tap, and it can tell us about are world, and others world. PPl ask why did god put life on this planet, and no others, we will never know if we dont see whats on this planet. You think about how asturnauts train to go to space, inside the water, I think there may be more things to learn about space, in the ocean then in space itself. And of cousre UFOs, there are such things as USOs. Any way the true subject of this question is why do we try to jump, before we learn to walk first, we are but babies, and unless we learn about ourselves, and test the water so to speak, why would we want to leap forward, to thing outside our prespective?

when you ask a nasa official about if man kind can go on the moon again this year, 2006, why do they say no. was it just a hoax in 1965 when they said that we landed on the moon or was it real? wasnt the us competting against the russians in 1965 and thought that the only way they can outrun the russians was to send man to the moon. if they did then why cant they send man to the moon again. the technology is much greater today than 1965, so why cant we go up there again? was nasa lying about neil armstrong going to the moon?
