Is that personal money or tax player's dollar

Jesus Christ QTRResearch

This is literally the stupidest idea ever. What's the point? the Moon's atmosphere is uninhabitable. Why don't we focus on saving this beautiful place called Earth, that has oxygen, rivers, trees, oceans, animals, humans & mountains. It's an amazing beautiful place full of life.

You could get a lot of people to chip in if that human was Newt!

... first ... on the moon?

Pretty sure that money should go to NASA back in 1969

alchemeast ...где-то икнул Рогозин....

After noticing he said 2 billion instead of 2 million. 😂😂😂

How surprising

Why not the same award for whoever finds a cure for athletes foot?

Be nice if they offered assad $2 billion to fuk off and stop killing Syrian kids.

Elon & Newt! Awesome Goal!!! Love You Too the Moon!!
