Speaker 1 (00:01):
Fact of the day, day day day, day. Do do
do do do do do do do do do do
do do do.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
I just wanted to make a cook addendum, if I may,
yes to me Yesterday's fact of the day about how
the moon looks bigger on the horizon, but when it's
up in the sky it's exactly the same size, but
you think it looks smaller.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Yep. Somebody messaged in saying, did you know you can.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Remove the illusion of the moon looking that big if
you turn away from the moon, bend over and look
back at the moon through your legs when your heads
upside down.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
I saw those ticks coming in and I was like, yeah,
and I googled it and it sounds like a truck
to make you do that, to make you look stupid,
to make you look silly.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
And there's some grabs your button, Yeah, some punches on
the Now.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Apparently it works. It's this thing, and no one's quite
sure why. There's a theory that it's flipping it upside
down so it stops the Earth being something that you
recognize as.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
The Earth and to you, but it will remove the
illusion of the moon looking really really massive. How bizard
or just by going upside down. Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Anyhow, today's BacT to the day I hear at moonweek
is about walking on the moon. Okay, what do you
think the time was from the first person walking on
the moon to the last person having walked on the moon?

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:21):
How long a period was it between the first and
the last?

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Ages?

Speaker 3 (01:28):
But the ages will give me a number.

Speaker 4 (01:30):
Ages, number, I don't know, thirty years.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
No, three and a half years, oh, three and a
half years between the first person walking on the moon.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, Neil Armstrong, of course. Oh that's right.

Speaker 4 (01:45):
We haven't had someone up there for ages.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
We haven't had no there's twelve people have walked on
the Moon through the entire history of it all, and
the first one was in nineteen sixty nine and the
last one was the end of nineteen seventy two.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
Why why have we not put people back there?

Speaker 3 (02:05):
The cost of it?

Speaker 2 (02:06):
And also we've done it so like what's the point
it got just to be like.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
I'm on the moon again.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
So apparently since nineteen seventy two, no one has either
landed on the Moon nor been in the lunar orbit,
so been in a craft that's just orbited around the Moon.
We've sent unmanned to you just got to the point
where you can send unmanned.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
But we don't want to go back land on personed. No,
I think we do. Does a Trump that wants to
go back to the Moon quite badly? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
I would have dipped a toe on the Moon just
to say.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
I've done it.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Undone it. Yeah, So twelve people have walked on the
Moon in total, the first of nineteen sixty nine in
the last of nineteen seventy two, so only three years
between them. Jesus, fact of the day, day day day day.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
Yeah, did
