    • SaxxonPike, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11we could just film it here on Earth
    • Layzie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+39Yeah...

      http://www.nasa.gov/pdf/163560main_LunarExplorationObjectives.pdf

    • Vicken, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7"Study the lunar regolith to understand the nature and history of solar emissions, galactic cosmic rays, and the local interstellar medium."

      Oh, how fun!
    • Junkyarddawg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This list scared me, because none of the things it lists are planned.
      It may be that once it's in place there might be money to build also a radio telescope (which, however, should be on the dark side, where the moon base WONT BE), but it's not planned and no money have been put aside for it. If any telescope, or spaceship manufacturing plants, or helium-3 mining operations, are to come from the moon base, they're probably a century away - and the moon base isn't necessary for any of them except the space shipyard.

      E.g., at present the only reason to build a moon base is to build a moon base and to do some really pedestrian science (e.g. the lunar regolith study Vicken mentions - which one don't need a base for). It's the same "build it and they'll come" philosophy which gave us the ISS fiasco.
