Car Nack Predicts

All this conversation about using hovercraft, fans, ducted fans, propellers, etc. is for naught, because everyone knows there is no atmosphere on the Moon.

Car Nack has spoken.

Well, if any air-moving robots show up at St. Louis then we'll have to send them over to Car Nack's pit. For special inspection.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-09

I leave Chief Delphi for a few hours of work and Car Nack speaks. Wouldn't you know it? The power, oh, the power of the moment.

Once again, it is demonstrated that Car Nack is wise. We should listen to Car Nack, for insightful is he that can see through the fog of confusion and discern the clarity of vacuum.

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-09

I'm sorry, Car Nack, but I think you got this one wrong:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_the_Moon

Specifically, ~8x10^4 total atoms per cubic centimeter. Of course, one would need quite a fan to do anything with that

What about static electricity? There should be plenty of that on the field, so that was our entire game plan ><

Re: Car Nack Predicts #1-09

The power draw of a hovercraft would be so great that your robot would die before the match even started
