Why don't birds fly to the moon?
It would be freaking awesome!! And why stop there too?

Other worlds await the eager and adventurous birds willing to take a risk.

OMFG the higher you get the more stronger gravity becomes + the higher you go the less oxygen there is to breath.

Seen it 100 times and still come up with a retarded statement like that?

The fact that there isn't an atmosphere in space is more important then the lack of gravity.

Re: Why don't birds fly to the moon?
Let’s see now. If da widdle birdie flapped its wings with sufficient continuous force to propel him/her through space at 50 mph, it would take …hmmmm

Distance of Earth to moon: 238,000 miles (average distance)

Hours needed to traverse that distance at a wing-breaking 50 mph: 4,760 hours ( 238,000 miles divided by 50 miles/hour equals 4,760 hours).

Number of days to reach the moon: 198 days (4,760 hours divided by 24 hours/day equals 198 days).

Forget the limitations imposed by gravity;
Forget about escape velocity;
Forget about the lack of oxygen.
These concepts, believe it or not, are above the intellectual capacity of a few (????) unenlightened members of our society .

It’s all about the food. Every fridge-raiding, buffet loving, chip dipping, wide butt couch potato on the planet knows that a bird can’t go 198 days with no food or water; hell, these finger lickers can’t go 4 hours without a 4,000 calorie snack!!! Even those more slender members of our fast-food society can comprehend the nutritional needs of other life forms. They certainly understand that a bird cannot endure 198 days without food or water, especially when it is burning calories at an enormous rate while feverously flapping its wings the entire time.

And when the exhausted bird finally lands on the moon, what in the hell is it supposed to eat? Damn, that would take another 198 days for a return trip to the more hospitable Earth. Birds can’t fly to the moon because of the food, and they don’t even try because, apparently, they are smarter than some humans.

I hear that there are restaurants on the moon. The food is great, but no atmosphere.

Re: Why don't birds fly to the moon?
I have answered this before. I will answer again. I have nothing better to do.

From my understanding most birds do not fly at night so they are sleeping when the moon is out.

Maybe birds do not know there is a moon.

If they could get out of the atmosphere they would explode due to space vaccum and there is no food or water for them.

Re: Why don't birds fly to the moon?
Long before the lack of oxygen becomes a problem, the air becomes too thin to support the weight of the bird in flight. Gravity is actually the correct answer.

Noobs.

Why don't birds fly to the moon?
Well, this bird can't speak for them all,
but this is my tune:


tweet tweet, tweet tweet


To fly to the moon would be really sweet,
but i will not fly solo,
& my traveling companion,
i have yet to meet.


chirp chirp, chirp chirp


For whatever it's worth,
i think we're all tiring
of this same ole thread-theme.
Try something "new under the sun,"
would ya? And think up a new meme!


Cuz i don't mean to scold... scold... scold,
but these threads are gettin' old... old... old.


sigh

Re: Why don't birds fly to the moon?
Someone actually asked this question!?? :O

1. There is no atmosphere in space. A biological organism would simply explode via the oxygen leaving every cell in its body.

2. There is no oxygen in the first place to even let the bird get that far. They would simply pass out and fall to the ground looong before they leave the atmosphere.

3. And they wouldnt even get a chance to live out the step two scenario. At 40,000ft the temperature is -55 C. Even for our feathered friends.. thats 1/3 as cold as liquid nitrogen.


4. Their not that fucking stupid. They are birds.. yet they know better then the op. Shame on you!!
