The Moon

“Shoot for the moon, even if you miss you will land among the stars”

My family heard that quote, just like everybody else, and of course we immediately pointed out the error that the stars are millions of light years farther away than the moon so the only way you could do as that quote says was if you had in incredibly fast spaceship and an incredibly bad sense of direction. Then it might happen, but you would still need talent.

So we tried to come up with some quotes of our own that are more correct. They are not as touching as the original, but space travel is nothing to mess with. Here they are:
“Shoot for the moon, and once you blast off you will realize you forgot fuel.”
“Shoot for the stars, and when you miss you will only be stranded on the moon.”
“Shoot for the stars, and you might get lost in space.”
“Shoot for the moon, and you will get hit by a meteor.”
“Shoot for the stars, and you will get sucked into a black hole and spagetified.”
Okay maybe they still need some work. We were only trying to discourage those with fast rocket ships and a bad sense of direction.
