I would at least like to have had the Eagle transport.
I've thought that also for a very long time. It should at least be studied.
Ive thought that too. My understanding is that its not necessarily a bad thing to dispose of it that way, the problem is the failed rockets/atmospheric distribution of the material that would quickly be considered a problem.
According to my thought experiments, which are damned exhausting for my 87.97-year-old brain, the numbers, depending on the tides, are:
The Moon’s Top Layer Has Enough Oxygen To Sustain 89,503 People for 726 Years...☠
This result is "hockey stick" supported...👌
This should, finally, get me the Nobel I was cheated out of 46-years ago...
“The Moon’s Top Layer Has Enough Oxygen To Sustain 8 Billion People for 100,000 Years“
So what happened? -Man-made Lunar Warming???
Funny how the moon is so rich, but our earth is SOOOOOOOO fragile! ( and I don’t mean Italian)
This is good.
Can cotton also be grown there?
I remember a math teacher asking us to figure out how old we would be in 2000. I remember thinking how incredibly old I would be. I hope 2000 never gets here, Then Ill have to decide what I want to be when I grow up.
I suppose there’s not much chance of getting a congressional delegation led by Pelosi to go investigate further?

Every square meter of the Moon’s surface get about 1.2 kW of energy fairly constantly..................
Lets look at the whole system, What is the total analysis?

“Energy is free”
What kind of statement is that? Energy is AVAILABLE, not free. Boulder at the top of a ridge is potential energy, not ‘free’ energy.
Fortunately, the Sun shines on the Moon. Thus the energy is both AVAILABLE and it is RENEWABLE. Not free.
There is a whole bunch of electrical energy generated by the iron core of the Earth rotating within the magnetic field of the magnetosphere too. We COULD harvest that, and we see it as lightning, but we choose not to.
Shimizu took off with the idea in 2013 in the aftermath of Japan’s 2011 Fukishima accident, which produced a political climate demanding alternatives to nuclear power plants. Shimizu’s plans call for beginning construction of a lunar solar power base as early as 2035. The solar array would be 250 miles wide and span the lunar circumference of 6,800 miles. They’re calling it the Luna Ring.
We COULD harvest that
We could have global warming, so lets take action. There are a lot of things that could happen.
However choices get in the way. If you chose one thing, you can’t choose the other.
Problem definition is important. Think what would have happened had we measured auto pollution as per mile instead of out the tail pipe at idle.
I like science fiction more than most, but it is science fiction.
My point is look at the SYSTEM. It has no application today. Don’t just look at the shiny thing.
Harvesting available electrostatic field energy and converting it to AC is not a stretch. Tesla BUILT it. The issue with that is if renewable electrical energy is free and can be harvested, even transmitted over the air, then you can’t meter it.
It’s why diseases don’t get cures. There’s no money in cures.
If you want to put a Moon base on the moon, you could harvest oxygen and energy from the Moon’s surface, but now you are giving away the store.
Can’t have that. The Moon, apparently, can wait.
