Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for May 21, 2023

“That’s one small step for a man, …. Whoa what did I step in??”

If extraterrestrials ever found those bags, I wonder what they could determine about Earth biology.

I’m sure they left the goodies on the moon, they wore diapers? I’m picturing them changing in the small space of a capsule…you and your BFF

Just goes to show man will befoul ANY place we go. Not just here!

Just like Americans, We’re always forgetting our sh…

He’ll probably say he brought them on board so that he could have escargot in flight, instead of just chips and peanuts.

Mt. Everest has people poo, too. Along with yellow snow, dead bodies, empty oxygen bottles and other trash.

There’s a cow-pie joke in there somewhere but darned if I can find it. A little help….

Mega escargot.

Take care, may Venetian blind aficionado Thomas “I Got These At Walmart And These Out Of The Dumpster Behind Target” O’ceeDeeord be with you, and gesundheit.

They were his support snails as he was afraid to fly.

I have always decried man in space as both wasteful. We are trashing the moon, Mars and other orbs. That we leave S—T behind is a hallmark of out space program. So. don’t say " GO NASA"!

We better hope those bags are, “still there to this day!”

So the Moon ain’t green cheese after all.

Tap water in Italy is also more controlled than bottled water. Not sure about the rest of the world, but I wouldn’t trust commercial water to be kept at higher standards than tap water.

So much for being guardians of the galaxy

Leaving behind waste on the moon is unconscionable! We’re not supposed to do this when visiting or camping our National Parks and Forests; how do we justify doing it on celestial bodies? We are such freaks!

Why didn’t the astronauts mix the excrement into the moon’s ‘soil’ to start a garden plot for future visitors.

Maybe a future trip to the moon can bring the waste bag. Every good dog owner would understand.

If Venice is sitting on all those tree trunks, why is the city sinking???

Ah, humans…

The traveler should have been deported to planet of origin.

So much for that fancy “welcome home” French dinner for that traveler from Michigan.

NASA needs to fund a mission to put porta-potties on the moon.

Seems to me that using “their” as a singular is a step backwards in the evolution of the language. It can lead to ambiguities. Language should become more precise as it evolves. Although I like the idea of having gender-neutral pronouns, I wish it was some other solution that was adopted.

Drinking water in Canada is not great for its indigenous tribes.

Decaying infrastructure at water plants and a lack of trained operators has, on many reserves, rendered the treated water undrinkable. Since 1995, more than 250 First Nations have been affected, according to court records.Dec 24, 2022.

I was curious to see if you couldn’t just sling that stuff back into space. But despite there being low gravity on the moon, there isn’t NO gravity on the moon.

Escargot no es cargo.

Look! Up in the sky! It’s bird! It’s a plane! No! It’s astronaut poop!

I hope they got all the snails! That could create havoc on the environment.

Later it was found that some of the passengers on the flight were missing. Talk about a slug fest!

How pleasant. Astronauts are leaving their poop on the moon.

In the U.S. tap water is also held to a higher standard than bottled water.

Thanks to the snails,their baggage was slower getting to the claim carousel than normal.

Of course the bags are still there…the moon doesn’t have trash pickup yet.
