[AstroZon]

does 13 fit the brief. People have actually walked on the moon

Sting's narrative is about domestic life on the moon, i.e., a lunar colony. I suspect that's it's a loose allegory to something else anyway - not unlike science fiction of yore (before it morphed into meaningless space fantasy.)

And BTW, Space Oddity, Rocket Man, and Major Tom are about astronauts.

 

[Cal Weldon]

And are fictional.

 

[drewburn]

so should science FICTION be

 

[gasboss775]

so should science FICTION be

My reason for omission in both cases was tied in with the no politics rule on the forum.

I tend to agree that the avoidance of politics and religion is conducive to creating a harmonious environment.

There are a myriad of online places to discuss the controversial issues that were highlighted in the ommited posts.

Discussions about speaker cable should be added to that list 😉

 

[scottjoplin]

[scottjoplin]

Nar, it's cool....no one gets hurt...
