"FORE!"

*hits ball*

*ball shatters window in spacecraft*

MC: "Dammit, Shepard, you had one job. ONE JOB!"

[Immuuni]

You need air in order to play golf? So what happens if you hit a golf ball in space? It doesn't move anywhere? How can meteors move in space if there's no air? It's a real deal. Damn you conspiracy theorists with your confirmation biases.

LOL people still take this comment seriously? goddamn!

[Racamonkey]

lmao you're fucking retarded

[nIcecreamovie]

It actually has a very tiny one. I said atmosphere to express how the ball would escape the moon's gravity. Whatever, my first comment was meant to be a joke...

[Gerard Banks]

Some people are just unbelievably stupid 

[Gerard Banks]

oh my god. what next, the ISS is fake?

[Gerard Banks]

did you just say the moon's atmosphere

[nIcecreamovie]

Not if he had hit the ball with enough power. Then it would leave the moon's atmosphere and enter space, where it would fly forever in vacuum.

[ukchristian28]

It wouldn't be. It would come down still. It's not zero gravity on the moon.

[nIcecreamovie]

Some say the ball is still flying...
