I mean I know it's a joke but you can't actually break orbit just by throwing something from the moon, right?
-
Not the moon, but this comic would work on some asteroids.
-
How small would it have to be?

This comment makes me want to play some Kerbal Space Program again, where you can launch yourself into orbit from Minmus (the 2nd moon) with a jump.
-
Nor can you throw a spaceship around on the Moon.
So maybe that cartoon isn't about the Moon.
-
The escape velocity of the moon is 2.38km/s (compared to 11.2km/s on Earth) so you'd have to be throwing it pretty hard
-
Even if you went to some asteroids that have low escape velocities, a spacecraft still has all of the mass of a spacecraft--probably a few 1000 kg. So you probably can't get it going fast enough, even if you can escape yourself by jumping.
-
Man even a 5.6 is only 0.9km/s. I thought we could give the moon a ring of bullets.
-
-
When it eventually lands, they're in for a hike.
-
If your fastball is 5324 mph, give the MLB a call!

Who else has done exactly this before on Gilly in Kerbal Space Program?

just jump after it
Just remember to aim your jump exactly....... Or die floating in the void.
No pressure… because there’s no atmosphere.
