A compelling reason to go back to the moon...

A ginormous lava tube. If it has water/ice...it's a ready made site waiting for us to move in. A game changer in terms of us colonizing the moon.

That is interesting. It could certainly help speed up the establishment of a moon colony.

Wait, isn't that where the giant space worms live?

I figure if the moon was made of solid gold it would still be too expensive to mine it and bring it back here.

can you imagine loading up a few tons of it and bringing it back to earth?

"oh no, we're coming in too fast! Look out below!"

I heard it said you could mine an asteroid and bring it back and completely destroy the commodities market, but you could only do it once. Prices won't stay high if you're bringing in a ton of it all at once.

Exactly wrong. If you understood physics it would be readily apparent why.

What about the one from Empire Strikes Back? That thing was a whopper, I think bigger than the sand worm.

Yeah that's the one I was originally thinking of.

You cant go back to a place you've never been to...

Wolfhound · Oct 23, 2017

I think that eventually a colony would be possible. It may never be profitable or practical.

Hoosierkav · Oct 23, 2017

Gold? I thought the moon had cheese.

Another reason, we have to stop the nazis that have a base there.

And an Iron Sky reference?

Like the 'ancient astronauts' (i.e., aliens) on the dark side of the moon would give up their gold....come-on people.

Half way through that movie I thought "what the hell am I watching, why am I still watching this?". Then at the end I thought "what a strange and Awesome movie"

An interesting movie, and the German gal is major hot.
