If you were given a space ship, a time machine, and some spray paint, what message would you write on the moon for the astronauts to find?

I would write: "Location abandoned due to cheese shortage."

"Beat you by <insert gratuitously large number here> years! Suckers..."

or, for the comic effect:

(In Russian) "Glad to see you found our secret hiding spot."

Spray paint would be ineffective on the moon. I would use a very low albedo (in other words, very dark) dust, and make a great big smiley face that you could see from the Earth.

A few ideas come to mind. Assuming the message is found in July 1969, my top choices are:

"Spock says 'Hi' "

"I can't believe you guys fell for it."

"For a good time, call Gurfloog. 763-987-2234-4356-0012"

Or one handwriting saying: "My mother made me a whore." And then in a different handwriting: "If I provide the yarn, will she make me one?"

Ancient egyptian heiroglyphics would be fun too. :)

"Death Star Mark 3"

OR maybe

"Help! I'm trapped! Let me out! I don't want to be the man in the moon any more!"

"Meet us on the far side of Pluto by December 31, 1999. There isn't much time left until IT begins..."

Hopefully, it'll frighten/interest the government enough so that they invest heavily in the manned space program, and the space program of the altered timeline isn't as anemic as today's.

Thank you.

"Here's how to build a time machine:" followed by instructions.

I don't know if that's such a great idea.

Richard Nixon was President of the United States at the time. Do you really want to give Richard Nixon the secrets of time travel?

Absolutely! The greatest president since Lincoln (or hasn't your corner of the universe been updated yet?) :D

I reckon it'd be funny to tag it.


Or better yet, tag it in Russian.
