Given the number of emails I get from "hackers" I must have the most-hacked computer on the planet. Nah - they're just emails from scum out to scam. This one's from Argentina. Hackers should be ticked by all the con artists trying to pass themselves off as hackers.

OOPS. This simulation of China's Chang'e-4 lunar lander on the Moon was shown on last night's PBS Newshour. Chang'e 4 landed on the Moon's far side. The 'oops' is that big blue planet in the sky on what is supposed to be the far side of the Moon. #spaceexploration #lunarlander
