中国月球探索者发现潜在强大的东西

对于那些不知情的人，中国已经登陆月球，尽管......

Oh...

For those not in the know, China has landed on the Moon, albeit with a series of three unmanned spacecraft named Chang'e 3, Chang'e 4, and Chang'e 5, launched by the China National Space Administration.

Chang'e 5 was the first spacecraft since NASA's Apollo and the Soviets' Luna missions of the 1970s to land on the Moon and return to Earth with samples taken from the lunar surface. Within those samples, a new Moon mineral was found. Named Changesite-(Y), this mineral contains Helium-3, which could be a potentially game-changing fuel source for nuclear fusion reactors. Of course, we have to figure out the whole nuclear fusion thing first, but... well, baby steps, as they say.

Anyhoo, there's no external views of the Chang'e 5 lander on the Moon, aside from artist's illustrations. But here's a look at what Chang'e 5 saw after landing. 享受...

This particular example, a Super Sport (not the way-more groovy plain-jane Malibu, but we won't hold that against her), was finished in custom paint; Pontiac Verdoro Green, to be exact. Enjoy...

The Missing Page

Recently your blogmeister acquired a Playboy pin-up calendar from 1961. He got it for real cheap-like, but only because Miss October was MIA. Well, we just hadda see what we was missin', so... here she be...
