How will cows survive on the Moon? One of the most vexing questions asked about space, scientists have spent decades debating this key issue. Finally, after extensive computer modeling and over a dozen midnight milkings, engineers have designed, built, and now tested the new Lunar Grazing Module (LGM), a multi-purpose celestial bovine containment system. By now, many of you will not be surprised to be wished a Happy April Fool’s Day from APOD. To the best of our knowledge, there are no current plans to launch cows into space. For one reason, cows tend to be large animals that don’t launch easily or cheaply. As friendly as cows may be, head-to-head comparisons show that robotic rovers are usually more effective as scientific explorers. The featured image is of a thought-provoking work of art named “Mooooonwalk” which really is on display at a popular science museum.

🌕🐄 你有冇諗過，牛會點樣喺月球生存呢？呢個問題一直以來困擾住科學家，花咗幾十年時間討論。終於，經過大量電腦模擬同埋不斷嘅午夜擠奶，工程師們設計同製造咗全新嘅月球放牧模組（Lunar Grazing Module，簡稱 LGM），一個多用途嘅天體牛隻飼養系統。
不過，大家可能都唔驚訝聽到，APOD 想祝大家「愚人節快樂！」至於牛隻上太空，暫時冇任何計劃。因為牛隻體型較大，發射成本高昂。而且，相對牛隻，機械探測器通常係更有效嘅科學探索工具。
今日分享嘅圖片係一件引人深思嘅藝術作品，名為「Mooooonwalk」，而家正展出於某個受歡迎的科學博物館。
