Sadly, they're not doing much if they're up there. Just hunkering down waiting for some water.

Really interesting thanks for sharing it highlights the dangers to other forms of life as humans start deep space exploration, it's akin to the dicovery of the Americas within 100 years the accidental transfer of viral infections had wiped most of the origional inhabitants

Interesting but the shocking thing for me is we've already littered the moon ! I hope Armstrong got a council fine.

Do they have little moon boots on to stop them from floating away?
