Episode 1 – Earth bombs the Moon

In a galaxy far far away… on October 9th, 2009, the Earth carried out its first attack on a neighbouring celestial body by bombing its trusty moon with a missile/rocket/thing, in the name of SCIENCE! Is this a worthy attempt to aid humanity with its energy crisis; or the hallmarks of an aggressive space-faring civilisation in the making? (or an NWO/NASA/Roswell/Bildeberg/Illuminati conspiracy?)
