    Default Should we recover Apollo 10 "snoopy"

    https://www.skyandtelescope.com/astr...snoopy-module/

    Not well known is that Apollo 10 "snoopy" has been orbiting the earth for several decades. NASA never bothered to keep track of it, because it was just considered space junk after its usefulness was exhausted.

    Earlier this year (2019), the British spotted it by accident and they now have a trackable orbit. Trackable, means that technically a capture and return could be possible, although expensive and risky (think 10x more difficult than rescuing something at the bottom of the ocean)

    Only thing stopping anyone is: Should we?

    Let it go man, just let it go.

    And I'm not just talking about this Snoopy but all of the delusions and madness that are/is bottled up in your head.

    But just don't let go of them here as I think we have seen enough of what you are and what you're about.

    Reddit, ooh there is plenty of space there for you to have your fun.
    Will fuck off, again.

    But if I did reddit, then noone would ever bother with sub-forums. And I like you peeps.

    "Its next close approach won't come until July 10, 2037, when it will pass 4 million miles from Earth, equivalent to 16 times the Earth-Moon distance."

    I mean, it would take a hella lotta fuel since technically its orbiting the sun, at earth type orbit. I can imagine China might take a shot at it as droneable - recoverable space salvage.
