See? See? I told you something would have to give if NASA engineers weren't able to get to the moon:
In an unprecedented scientific endeavor — and what may be one of the coolest space missions ever — NASA is preparing to fly a rocket booster into the moon, triggering a six-mile-high explosion...
Why would you do something like that? Use the $ for more important stuff.. like end North Korea.

As for ending NK, I think we should go back to broadcasting news and TV channels into their borders, if we aren't still doing that. Give them instructions on getting around firewalls and security measures so they can get western news on the intrawebs. Aside from that, cut off all trade and relations then just ignore them entirely.
