    Saturn V recovered

    The Saturn V rocket that took the astronauts to the moon has been salvaged from the ocean and is being studied by forensic engineers. According to reports scientists are baffled by a notation found spray painted on the side of one of the tanks. "Go Jackets---O.F. was here, 1969".
    Mysterious. Anybody? ?

    Did it also say "One nation, under Dodd..."?
    "A compass, I learnt when I was surveying, it'll... it'll point you True North from where you're standing, but it's got no advice about the swamps and deserts and chasms that you'll encounter along the way. If in pursuit of your destination, you plunge ahead, heedless of obstacles, and achieve nothing more than to sink in a swamp... What's the use of knowing True North?"

    I think I read where they can't actually identify which flight those engines were a part of due to serial numbers or other identifying marks (save the O.F ones) not being recognizable.

    And Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com's founder, was the primary funder of the expedition.

    I was once asked if I believed that Crocodile Dundee was actually raised by aborigines. But that was from an eleven year old.
