I forget what's it's called but no using I. I'm not sure about the we but I don't think addition is helpful.


* I realized recently, part of the reason the Moon people might be having so much trouble with the Mites is because their weapons are made of gold. Gold is, while heavy (under usual gravity conditions) a soft metal that would be less effective made into sharp edged or pointy weapons like spears.

** Of course it does seem out of character for Scrooge to use a far more expensive fuel for his rockets, unless using gold has it's own benefits. Maybe gold is actually far more efficient and thus actually (slightly) more cost effective?

*** Still pretty horrifying considering that, unless she got a big and heavy enough piece she would have had to saw her leg off rather than just chopping it off. Unless of course instead of actively removing her leg, it came off more naturally due to gangrene, which isn't much better.

* It's been established that Della went into space before the triplets were hatched. How did she know what gender they were going to hatch into? She clearly states that the lullaby was something she sang to them ''before'' they hatched.

* The far side of the moon turns out to be hollow, but made mostly of gold. The high density of gold would compensate for the missing mass, combined with the tidal locked orbit, would leave the true nature of the moon undetectable from earth.

* So Della's been transmitting this whole time to Earth and yet no-one's received them. Why? Because the Moon Planet inhabitants were hiding themselves with clanking technology. It'd stand to reason that this could've including blocking out any transmission leaving the surface.

* No wonder Scrooge almost went bankrupt when sending so many ships to search for Della; they're fueled with GOLD. Normal rocket fuel is expensive enough; using gold, plus the obvious expenses from making the ships, would be a huge funds-drainer, even for Scrooge's fortune.

* Della's characterization shows traits from all three of her sons:
** Like Huey, he is an enthusiastic Junior Woodchuck.
** Like Dewey, he has an impulsive, daredevil attitude.
** Like Louie, she recognizes narrative patterns (like how she may become FireForgedFriends with Penumbra).

* The reason Della was screaming out the iconic Moon Theme when she went full LeeroyJenkins and attempted to jump off the moon's gravity: it's the lullaby she used to sing to her kids. The tune reminds her of them, and steels her determination in order to get back to them. [[RealityEnsues Not that it helps her much in that case]].

* It's clear that her {{Apocalyptic Log}}s also serve as her SOS transmissions which was her first method of getting rescued. Throughout the first year of her disappearance, Scrooge had been burning his Money Bin to look for her. How did her transmissions not get through back to Earth?

* Della not being able to blow out the boys' birthday candle makes some sense considering that Moon has no atmosphere and Della is getting her oxygen from the Oxy-Chew, thus there's no air she could use to blow the candle. Although that begs the question [[FridgeLogic how the candle can burn in the first place]]...

** It was probably an emergency flare with its own internal oxidizer. Though that raises other questions, like why didn't she use that to signal with when the [=McDuck=] search ship had passed overhead...

** To be fair, the rocket was not supposed to be launched for at least another month and the rocket was completely untested, so the rocket neither having any backup supplies or backup gold makes sense, Scrooge didn't believe that Della would find out about the rocket that early and would steal it for a joyride before it was even tested.

* The presence of the [[BatmanCanBreatheInSpace Oxy-chew]] seems to be an AssPull as to how Della survived on the Moon without oxygen and food. However, considering that the [=McDucks=] were going to space in the first place, having no backup supplies in case of helmet damage is nothing short of folly.

* The Moon Mite is revealed to be stealing metal because [[MonsterIsAMommy she's trying to keep her baby fed]]. The city of the Moon Planet inhabitants is filled with gold, the Moon Mites' preferred food. Since the Moon Planet cops have been actively hunting the Moon Mite, she probably wasn't able to forage for food properly, meaning that she (or worse, [[AdultFear her baby]]) could have starved to death.
