Hello everyone,

today i'm gonna tell you how astronomy can give you a lot of money! You can trade on NASA stocks, or any other stocks about space agency in the world or simply.. study astronomy! 

By the way (and jokes), few days ago i was watching the famous tv show "Who wants to be a millionaire?" and, as other times happened, the questions with highest jackpots, often concerning astronomy. Even this time, the 1 million question, was about astronomy and in particular reads 

What did Gene Cernan leave written on lunar soil, the last man who walked on the Moon?

If you are enthusiast about astronomy, it's easy :D 

The partecipant admited that "I didn't know it, i dared". Lucky man!! here's the moment of stunning win https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5KR17wal1o

Yes, Gene Cernan left the initials of the name of his daughter.

He passed away 3 years ago in 2017, at the age of 82. Often nobody remember the name of the astronaut next to the Apollo 11, cause space missions on the Moon already lost their appeal with the Apollo 12. You can remember astronauts for their "shows" on the Lunar soil (playing golf, experiments). In the next posts we will see together how the "played" on the Moon.
