Nuking Earth a few thousand times hasn't had all that much effect (the local effects of the two that were dropped on actual cities excluded, of course). Not much reason to think blowing one on the moon would.

It wouldn't have any effect on the moon, let alone on Earth.

If I ever reincarnate as an individual spacefaring species with enough authority to do it, I would do this to a pre-space society in their industrial revolution phase in their language (obtained via stealth research and observation drones/teams).

When they discover the truth, they will at least have some comfort/dread knowing the cosmos is full of punsters.

Also, a couple years after they see the rest of the phrase, I would have my fleet return and intimidate them a bit while I give them a lecture on the dangers of using fossil fuels too long, and then give them entry grade fusion reactors and the knowledge of fission too, and wish them luck in avoiding a catastrophy.

The trick is, by getting fission knowledge too, if they are potentially dangerous, then since everyone gets the nuke at the same time, if they are too warlike they will either destroy themselves with it, or hurt themselves enough that EVERYONE on the planet decides to never do this again and it may change them for the better.

tl;dr, if any of you can interfere with an industrial revolution society, give them perfect, easy to make fusion reactors, but also give them nuclear weapons. The planets whose sophants survive will be the ones worthy of joining the galactic community.

The moon gets hit harder with space rocks and doesn't budge, so no

I mean, I'd definitely try to get rich in the moon rock rush.
I imagine another couple billion people would do the same.

How much did the nukes set off in Nevada affect you? Now think about how much further away the moon is.

Its Chair Man I think. If I remember. A villain in the 90s Tick cartoon. He was writing his name on the moon but Tick stopped him before he could finish. And the best part is they kept that on the moon for the rest of the series, everytime the moon was on screen

We should find out. For Science.

Rise up, CE! Rise up and (collectively) run for president of the United States. When we win, we will nuke this image into face of the moon.

His full name was Chairhead Chippendale.

And yes, those letters were visible any time they showed the moon. Also, I believe a chunk got taken out of it at a later date and they kept that too.

Any fluctuations to the Moons orbit would be catastrophic. Theres a fictional novel called Life as we Knew It that goes into detail.
