Explanation:
Using the new camera on the
Hubble Space Telescope,
astronomers have been able to confirm that the Moon is
made of
green cheese.
The telling clue was the resolution of a marked date after which the
Moon may go bad.
Controversy still exists, however,
over whether the date resolved is truly an
expiration date or just a "sell by" date.
"To be cautious, we should completely
devour the Moon by tomorrow," a spokesperson advised.
Happy April Fool's Day from the folks at
APOD.
The above image (slightly altered) was actually taken
in 1965 by the
Ranger 9 probe minutes before impact.
The popular
Moon is
made of Green Cheese myth can be traced back almost 500 years.
It has been used historically in context
to indicate a claim so clearly false that no one -- not even
April Fools
-- will believe it.
