A quote by Paul Brandt is actually,

"Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon."

I agree with this quote, however, The Oxford Dictionary's definition of "sky" is "the space above the earth that you can see when you look up, where clouds and the sun, moon and stars appear" so the moon would count according to that definition.

A more realistic version of the quote (by me) would be "Don't tell me the sky's the limit when we've sent satellites to the edge of our solar system."

Anyway... yeah...

yea but does the moon technically count because that's where the stars, moon, clouds, and sun appear but to actually step on the moon you would have to go past the sky because you would have passed the clouds.

I doubt it... pretty much all supposedly older texts simply contain hymns, mantras, spells, ancient 'medicine' etc and are not very valuable in confirming science. 

Precisely why you'll be surprised if you actually read them instead of just listening to propaganda/marketing/evangelism.

The moon landing was fake....that's why

Yeah the landing was fake, the earth is flat, and the moon is just a reflection of light hitting my toilet bowl!

So, if you are standing on the moon, you can look up into the sky.  That is the moon's sky.  Otherwise, you have to make up a new word - "I'm looking up into the ...."  the what?  Finish this sentence.  And as for footprints, that would be looking at the ground.  Not the sky.  Not even the moon's sky... why am I even writing on this ridiculous thread?  MORE COFFEE PLEASE !!! tongue.png
