Mars. They blew up the moon to check if there was ice. Mars is known to have ice, so they'll have some succes there.

Wouldn't shooting planets fuck things up? I heard Mars or someother planet protects us from incoming meteors

the "bomb" was to find water, read the whole thread before posting. If there is water there, it would be easier to put a station there. Water is a heavy resource that is required for people to survive space travel. 10 gallons of water is a small person in weight. I dont know the cost in fuel per pound of equipment that they put into space, but i can promise you its several thousands of dollars per pound at least. If the water was all ready there, it would be very cost benificial if we are to continue space travel.

It's about 100 gallons of fuel per 1 pound of weight, last I heard.

Anyways, as people have said, we didn't hit the moon for no reason. The moon gets hit with meteors bigger than that several times a month, and there were absolutely no explosives involved.
