Moon Missiles?!

So ... NASA is launching missiles at the Moon tomorrow to see if there's water in a crater there.
You can even watch it on NASA T.V.!:

This makes me very uncomfortable. The Moon is responsible for so much of OUR Planetary function ... why do we want to mess with it - by BOMBING it?! I also think it's strange that hardly anyone seems to know about this ... perhaps because we would protest it, and now - as it's happening at 4:30 a.m. PST tomorrow - it's too late for that.

Let's hope for the best!
