Did Aperture Science go through actual bankruptcy reorganization? I'm guessing they did because their name changed over time and I assume that was part of the reorganization process...Alexcranson 18:30, June 13, 2011 (UTC)
- I'd say so, Black mesa spent time exploring alternative dimensions whilst Aperture were causing US Astronauts to go MIA, Though i'd expect some sort of goverment bailout regime took place
- Though it does seem Cave spent alot of money they didnt have, with the "We couldn't buy $7 worth of moon rocks" comment

That quote always confused me, if the ccompany literaly didnt have $7 to spend how could he have even employed anyone? not to mention seven dollars would not even buy a swab of moon dust, the term "seven grams of moon rocks" would likey have more apropriate, i assume this was a mistake that was never caught.

The thing is, if they couldn't afford to buy 7$ worth of moon rocks, then it wouldn't even be possible to buy the moon rocks that he did. I have the feeling that when Cave says "We literally couldn't afford to..." he doesn't actually mean literally. Either that or its a mistake. It is safe to say that Aperture did go through some tough times financially speaking, though.
