  • I'll bet Mars is more valuable.

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

    In the very long term - yes. However, the moon's much closer, and therefore cheaper to traffic things back to Earth, so you can bet that the moon will be the location of the first extraterrestrial base.

    Can't argue with that. If they have crafts that can land and take off again without being launched the moon would make a handy waystation.

  • Well, I prefer an asteroid traveling in our immediate part of our solar system,

    so we could mine it for rare earth minerals, and cool gems, then when

    the asteroid orbits around closer to earth, all they would have to do is

    shoot it to the earth.

    I should have been a scientist...

    But seriously, the mars rover, I read, has found indications of a lake.......

    we need some amazing, futuristic propulsion system that can warp ten.

    Like, at least half of light speed. Which about 186,000 something per second. Feet or yards....

    I think it was.

  • Why not use the moon as the testing ground for all the techology that will be needed to colonize Mars. How do we even know we

    have the basic power systems needed to do it? Think of all the questions about radiation traveling to and from Mars. This will have

    to be an international effort. All the best minds on earth will have to come together for this to happen.......just like in the movies.

    Traveling to Mars and back does not to be a suicide mission. Would you want be on that first flight?

    I'm sure that NASA has the expertise to make it happen.

    the top 10 centimetres of regolith (moon soil) at the south pole of the moon appears to hold about 100 times the concentration of gold of the richest mines in the world,

  • There will be a moon base next week if word gets out soon on all that gold.

    I think the 'moon people' may have something to say about that...just a hunch....😉

    They have a base on the moon
