A lunar polar station would have been a great test bed for a whole range of things from mining to manufacturing and livability. I think it would have led us to mars by now or at least set us firmly on that path.

If you can live on the moon, you can live anywhere in the solar system. There’s really no harsher environment than the moon.

Almost the same - radiation has bleached the flag white, so future visitors will think that France beat us to the moon!
