Moonbase 1

Postby Workingman » 27 Apr 2017, 13:26

A good thing or the end of the Solar system as we know it.?

Europe and China are collaborating on an agreement to build a Moon village. Sounds good. It could be used as a base to build and launch spacecraft to Mars and beyond, or so goes the hype. Then comes the bad news. It could also be used to develop space tourism or lunar mining.

So, not content with trashing our home planet we are now going to trash its moon. Then what? To trash infinity any beyond!

No wonder aliens keep themselves hidden from us, we have this penchant for destroying everything we touch.
