The Finisher

Space: The Final Frontier. NASA tweeted today that we're going back to the moon, and this time it's personal. Big news: permanent moonbases, coming by 2024. As JFK said, "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard." But keep in mind: it's going to be boring. No dance clubs, no bowling alleys, no water parks, just hiking and stargazing and rock collecting as far as the eye can see. The best way to fill those hours as far as I can see is Magic. So let's say that the Magic Mics were selected to be the Moon Mics. What Magic things are you packing in your airtight foot locker when you boldly go where no Magic player has gone before?
