The Moon

Science Daily: The moon once had an atmosphere
summary - A new study shows that an atmosphere was produced around the ancient Moon, 3 to 4 billion years ago, when intense volcanic eruptions spewed gases above the surface faster than they could escape to space.

Yea, the Moon I'd love to go there, but I could never wear one of those spacesuits I'm way too claustrophobic.

I hear ya. I prefer environments where I can freely breathe air. Call me old fashioned. ;-)

With Pruitt at EPA we might need to wear face masks soon to breath here.

It's like placing a shark in charge of taking care of the minnows. He is so out of place, it's one of the many reasons why Trump is such a bitter old disgrace, his Pruitt appointment.

The Trump regime is anything but Populist. It's deeply reactionary or worse.
