What are creative ways to commit murder on the lunar surface?

Asked by Rarebear (25192points) March 27th, 2010

For example, rigging a space suit to decompress, or catapulting someone into space.

Ideally, this murder should be untracable to you.

Forcing the astronauts to eat all that cheese at once, without any crackers and wine.

Poking tiny holes in the space suit (sabotage) would do it.

To make sure nobody would notice, i would do my killing on the dark side of the moon.
I wouldn’t do the killing on the moon though, i would let Stanley Kubrick stage it all on the moonlike surface of the Canary Islands.

@RealEyesRealizeRealLies
Thanks.
You did pretty well yourself.

Equip your victim with a Toyota rocket pack.

The pack itself will actually commit the murder at some random future time. ;-)

This duplicated somehow. Not sure why so I modified this one.

Bribe or blackmail the man in the moon to do it for you. As long as the cow and the spoon don’t dob, you’ll be fine.

Seriously? Load the person with an overdose of blood thinning drug. They’ll bleed to death in low atmospheric pressure. Like a full body hickey.

@Brian1946 Oh I have to laugh… hahahahahahaha

the first thing i thought of was to have one astronaut stand on the other’s hands, and the one on the bottom PUSHES them up as hard as he can lol. Or if he pushes the other guy really hard down onto a trampoline that they have there for some reason.

If you want to see an American murdered on the moon there is only one meaningful way you can help. Vote! As a first step vote out the Obama administration and get someone into office who supports America returning to the moon. The election after keep voting with the eventual goal of a moon base. There will need to be a large number of people one the moon before you realize your goal of an untraceable murder occurring there.

Switch the LRV AKA Moon Buggy with a Toyota Prius or any Toyota for that matter !

When they leave the capsule, change the locks.

Tell the astronauts that all the stories of hot alien women on the moon are true, and when they run off you close the airlock and save yourself.
I call it the “Ha-Sucker Directive.”

Snakes on a Shuttle?

It didn’t work on planes.

Tell them that their air is contaminated and tell them to depressurize their suit…outside the ship.

Poison gas capsules in his urine bag.
He urinates on the moons surface, the gas fills the suit…dead.

True story about Buzz Aldrin on Apollo 11’s moon mission:
He was much later walking on the moon than he was supposed to be. He was having trouble with his urine bag. It was supposed to be taped to his leg, but it came loose, and dropped to his shoe. He struggled to reposition it, but was unable to, and left the LEM with it in his shoe. As he stepped onto the lunar surface, his foot crushed and burst the urine bag. He said he never felt such conflicting emotions.

@filmfann: Thank you! I cannot believe I have not heard this story before.

DarkScribe's avatar

@filmfann Pretty pissed off was he?

Kick up a dust storm so they get lost and they run out of oxygen.

Spike their tea with LSD and ask them to nip outside to pick up that rock you dropped.

Force them to eat beans and then send them out for a moonwalk.

Rarebear's avatar

Ah…I left to go out, came back, and saw some fun answers. Thanks for the laugh!

Take your fellow spacewalker by the legs, twirl him or her around and LAUNCH THEM AT THE SUN D:

Tell the Moon People that the Astronauts are free marsh mellow gifts from Earth.

I’d buzz Aldrin’s arse crack with a lunar probe then place the blame squarely at the door of Mickey “quiet man” Collins.

Very simple. Invite mossad to come along. They will quickly create a Dubai sequence video for you.

Tell him/her that His health insurance doesn’t cover outer-space

chamelopotamus's avatar

Oh yeah or do what my friend did to me: tell them that the R2 button shoots missiles when it really ejects you out of the helicopter for you to fall to your death. Do that, on a spaceship.

Fill the oxygen tank with carbon monoxide. Coma style.
