I don't think BA wants us hot linking to their site, but here is the logo URL:

http://www.google.com/logos/google_moon.gif

You should be able to view at this URL long after they've removed it from the main page.

Go to the new map site http://moon.google.com/ and zoom in for a close look.

Actually, its only proof that aliens are on the letter O. :roll:

It also disproves that the astronaunts could not fit through the door of the LM with their backpacks on; the LM is a quarter the size of the moon!

It's not proof--everyone knows the moon is made of green cheese....

What about the astronuncles? How come no one ever talks about the astronuncles? Well, sometimes there's mention of the rich astronuncles, but the regular guys? Not a peep!

It's a cover-up I tell you! It's been going on ever since Gloria Steinem's brother had a kid. It's about time the media blew the lid off this Dutch oven of suppression. If not them, then at least Robert Vaughn and David McCallum!

Without the backpack and the bulky suits, an astronude surely would fit through the hatch. 8)
