Damn dude, did someone flush the toilet just before they took that picture?
That is the out-house at the other end isn't it?

I'm personally looking forward to my 100th birthday party on the moon.

I love that photo.

Go here for a super high resolution version. You can see incredible details.

When you open it, it will scale down to fit your screen. Just click your mouse anywhere on the photo, and it will open to full size.

Hell of an idea; maybe they'll have In and Out Burgers on the Moon by then to party at! A few burgers and few beers on the moon!
