The Moon
Posted: Mon Jun 08, 2009 5:16 pm1. Moon travel.
I think that a moon travel could be a real possibility in the future.
I wouldn’t enjoy a moon travel, because I think that it could be dangerous and depressing, but if I did it, I would value more the Nature in the Earth: the sea, the forest and the animals.
I think that it could be useful for the Scientifics to know more things about the solar system.
I think that the money spent on space travel should be used for other things, for example to help the Third World, but there are also Governments which spend money in worse things like armaments.
2. Moon expressions and idioms.
“You are in the Moon”: you are distracted.
A person who falls in love can promise the moon (things that are impossible to reach).
Where I live there is the expression: “to be in bad moon” that means to be in a bad mood.
3. Moon stories
Selene (the goddess Moon) and the mortal Endymion, a mortal who was a handsome shepherd, fall in love. Selene asked Zeus to grant him eternal sleep so that he would stay forever young and thus would never leave her. Endymion accepted to live forever in sleep. Every night, Selene slipped down to stay with him.
