Yep. They didn't really launch it into orbit with rockets,
that was all faked. They actually hauled it up there with
a crane, let it go and pulled the earth away at the last
moment.

The use case is to have a very easily set up way to serve basic pages
and files, without a lot of configuration files and other
infrastruct

Some Python users have told me that isn't a good idea, but
without any specifics.
We don't know *why* those people told you not to use these modules. We
also don't know your use case. So it is very hard to advise you.
