| Apparently, tonight is a sturgeon moon.
I have no idea what that means. _________________ |

The Full Moon in August is named after North America’s largest fish, the sturgeon. https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/moon/sturgeon.html _________________ |

| NASA has fired a rocket at the moon. It seems to be practise for sending people back there. _________________ |

| I feel like the Hall of the Wendigo should launch a moon mission. Is it expensive? _________________ |

| It doesn't look that far away. It can't be that hard. _________________ |

| Looking at the moon, it looks to be about the same distance away as Rotherham.
That's about eight miles.
You could probably get to Rotherham in an Uber for about £10. _________________ |

| I wonder how much it'd cost to get to the moon by Uber? _________________ |

| The app's taking forever to open. Maybe I should have used Deliveroo instead. _________________ |

| I have got the app open.
It is refusing to make me an offer for a trip to the moon.
I shall try to be more specific. I shall type in, "The Sea of Tranquillity." _________________ |

| According to the Internet, the moon is 226,000 miles away. Therefore, it is further away than Rotherham. The Uber fare to Meadowhall, from here, is £15.32. That means a trip to the moon should cost £18,696,528. The Internet tells me that the first moonlanding cost $28 billion. That makes Uber considerably cheaper. _________________ |

| That's assuming I use UberX, and not Exec. _________________ |
