[QUOTE=Ryuken;29504460]the ambition of the humans is enough to end up doing this [img_thumb]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_09-1_TXF3BQ/TJLDakUp40I/AAAAAAAAAL4/Qo8HLfA5Ebg/s1600/091009-mooncrash.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] I'm sorry, but the world doesn't work the way you think it does. Humans are animals, we want only 3 things: Food, Sex, and Power. Every other animal on this planet thinks the same way we do, we are not special, we are not evil. We just are. If you look into the past you will see we are helping the environment a lot more as time goes on. This is not Avatar my friend, truly evil people never are given a lab nor enough power to do something like the picture above. Eventually though if we expand enough in space we can blow moons up for the hell of it, I mean they aren't worth anything are they? Just hunks of matter circling another hunk of matter. [editline]29th April 2011[/editline] We also would never risk losing all of those minerals by cracking the moon.

Just hunks of matter circling another hunk of matter. [/QUOTE] The problem is when some of those chunks of matter decide they no longer want to circle. Not they we could do that to the moon if we tried.

[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;29505709] We also would never risk losing all of those minerals by cracking the moon.[/QUOTE] I thought that part of the movie happened because some rich eccentric moonlandlord decided to make the planet's biggest swimming pool by nuking the moon, but instead it caused the entire thing to fracture, triggering an apocalyptic rain of meteors to come down on earth and wipe out civilization.
What movie is it from, then?
[QUOTE=fskman;29506167]Yet.[/QUOTE] By the time we have the ability to strip mine the moon to a husk hopefully we'll have the sense to leave it mostly intact.

Aeiou.
It still makes for a damn good portal conductor. Bad part is that it's pure poison.

[QUOTE=AlienCreature;29511988]Well. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade...[/QUOTE] What about... a combustible lemonade?
[QUOTE=Tyrannosaur;29509201]Is that from The Time Machine?[/QUOTE] yup, it is
[QUOTE=Clipper;29512047]What about... a combustible lemonade?[/QUOTE] Don't be stupid, liquid is hard to burn. Except for gasoline and oil and such. Wait... JOHNSON, USE THE BLOOD-TO-GASOLINE LASER ON THE LEMONS!
[QUOTE=ForgottenKane;29505709]truly evil people never are given a lab nor enough power to do something like the picture above.[/QUOTE] 9/11, on a larger scale.
[QUOTE=eatdembeanz;29523662]Don't be stupid, liquid is hard to burn. Except for gasoline and oil and such. Wait... JOHNSON, USE THE BLOOD-TO-GASOLINE LASER ON THE LEMONS![/QUOTE] I BLOW YOUR FUCKING HOUSE UP WITH LEMONS!
Why hasn't anyone mentioned Mass Effect 2 yet?

Honestly though, it would be bit bloody difficult, exacerbated by the fact that the moon isn't tectonically active.
[QUOTE=FPSMango;29531583]Why hasn't anyone mentioned Mass Effect 2 yet?[/QUOTE] They're too busy probing Uranus.
