content: Well, despite NASA poo-pooing the idea of a lunar landing, we really do need to start colonizing other worlds and the moon would be the right place to start, since it's within range of quick rescue and easy contact. It can be used as a production hub for deep space exploration vehicles, which means less material will need to be lifted from the earth which means the overall cost will be lowered; the moon has an abundance of He3(sought after in fusion research) so it can provide raw materials as well. Also, we missed the Nazi moonbase the first time. We need to stop dillydallying and find it.
