girls will see the moon everyday and be like MOON!!!?!!!?!!?!!?
hey god, its me again, back with my silly little moon imagery
“the moon is made of cheese” is obviously a myth, but over-exploitation of the moon’s natural resources led to a catastrophic depletion in cheese deposits so now what little cheese remains is of low-quality and next to impossible to extract
also most of the moon cheese you see for sale these days is artificial; if you read the fine print, it’s “produced under moon-like conditions”
authentic lunar cheese is incredibly expensive ever since legal harvesting was outlawed in the 1990’s to allow cheese deposits to recover, but the black market demand has ravaged what’s left—illicit cheese harvesting is incredibly dangerous and something like 4 out of 9 cheese smugglers actually die within three years of taking up the trade
part of the reason the moon cheese ecosystem collapsed is because of anthropogenic contamination of near-surface milk aquifers (milkifers) in the 1970’s. insufficient decontamination methods used on cheese harvesting equipment and spacecraft resulted in the introduction of terrestrial bacterial species that displaced, out-competed, or directly killed huge swaths of the indigenous bacteria, slowing the lactification process tremendously.
further degradation occurred due to large mining operations disrupting rennet mole habitat and migration routes; as many moles were unable to access their traditional whelping basins, populations became isolated and suffered genetic bottlenecking that decreased overall fitness, litter size, and rennet production in most remaining populations. efforts to expand the gene pool by reintroducing captive-raised rennet moles have been met with some success; due to slow maturation, rennet mole studies have not been done beyond F5 generations to assess long-term population stability.
the scientific community mourns the tragic passing of our respected colleague, premier moon cheese researcher and conservationist Dr. Nadia Ardavan, found dead from a head wound at her field station on September 14, 2020. Dr. Ardavan was an outspoken proponent of moon restoration efforts and a self-professed “rabble-rouser” who frequently found herself butting heads with corporate interests. investigators found evidence of a struggle; foul-play is suspected in Dr. Ardavan’s untimely death. she is survived by her sons, Cosmo “Bullrush” Ardavan-Mackenzie and Caligula Ardavan-Jalaqua, and her widow, Dr. Miriam Jalaqua. Dr. Jalaqua requests that donations be made in honor of Dr. Ardavan’s life and works to the Rennet Mole Conservancy.

Why not just harvest the other moons? There is more then one moon in the galaxy just saying.
Only Earth’s moon, Luna, produces cheese. It is unlikely that other moons within our Solar System have conditions favorable to creating cheese deposits on a geologically noteworthy scale.
Emerging evidence suggests that the layer of ubiquitous red dust covering the surface of Mars is actually paprika–the desiccated, pulverized residue of a primordial Capsicumious Period. Ancient jungles of pepper once covered the Red Planet’s surface in a lush carpet of dense vegetation. Unlike the widely extolled moon cheese, Martian paprika is generally considered of vastly inferior quality to fresh paprika made from Earth peppers.
Does that mean Europa is a soup? It gets blasted by a large amount of radiation so I assume that means it always in a microwave. I am really interested and am considering studying the other moons, and our own, to see if they could be used for future emergency food reserves.
Unfortunately not; only Earth’s moon has been proven to produce edible foodstuffs (Martian paprika is pending FDA approval and is unlikely to pass). There is, however, a recently-discovered exoplanet, colloquially known as “The Meat Planet”, described here:
The Meat Planet may be too far away for humanity to visit (or taste) in the foreseeable future, but some scientists hypothesize that Uranus may be edible, though bacterial contamination of acquired samples makes experimentation inadvisable.
This is fucking stupid, the Moon is NOT made of cheese, cheese is processed from Milk that you get from Cows or Goats. Neither abimal existed when Rocks formed in space
The Moon isn’t “made” of cheese any more than Earth is “made” of soil–it’s something that’s produced through natural processes similar (but not identical to) the cheese we get from cows and goats. We are still unsure whether the Moon’s milk deposits were there when Luna was formed or if they arrived later; it is possible that lipid-rich asteroids first brought the building blocks of dairy onto the lunar surface and infused the crust and mantle with the chemical components that would ultimately lead to the synthesis of groundmilk and the eventual formation of moon cheese.
So wait, I might actually get to eat Uranus?
Theoretically, and with proper decontamination measures.
I respect the moon's unwillingness to be photographed on a phone

Did you see the moon is wet?? I think that's why people aren't handling things well
i found out like this
I went to look this up and this was the first article
Love that everyone collectively and without words agreed to not be normal about this
M O O N: MOIST

Did you know why the moon is male in some languages and female in others? Let me tell you.. In French, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian, the Moon is female and the Sun is male; in German, Dutch and Polish, the Moon is male and the Sun is female. Just as an example. The Greek Hermetics says: “… everything has male and female elements, gender reveals itself on all levels.” The female, receiving principle can be ascribed to the moon, the male, creative principle to the sun. But there are also other male moon gods and female sun goddesses. For example, there is a god named Mani from Norse mythology. It is worthwhile to look at the individual cultures, times and languages in order to understand why the moon is male in one culture and female in the other. In my mothertongue the moon is male and the sun is female. But the gods and goddesses I know are exactly the opposite sex. Only when I took a closer look at it I understood a part of it. If you add the Chinese idea of the Yin & Yan principle, it doesn’t really matter what gender the planet moon and star sun actually are. Because yin & yang stand for interrelated principles.

fuck dude it sure is

she is WHAT? sickening
I’m not even kidding I teared up a lil
mom
This is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen
