Big Beef City posted:Of all the conspiracy theories out there I kind of want the 'fake moon landing' one to be real because of how awesome it is. Well the more grounded version of the conspiracy was that they weren't going to make JFK's 'end of the decade' deadline so Apollo 11 was fake while later landings were the real deal. I like the conspiracy theory that Apollo 13's problems were a hoax to show the public how insanely dangerous these missions were. The moon could be a good source for some stuff that you can get on Earth (titanium, uranium) but the initial costs are huge. We'll probably developing asteroid mining first because that doubles as a weapon (which is why we went to the moon in the first place - competing with the Russians to build the biggest possible rocket for delivering nukes)

redshirt posted:Bringing asteroids into orbit is fairly simple. It's the mining/manufacturing that's hard. the material required to go to the moon and set up mining there is not much compared to the material required to go out to an asteroid and bring it back to earth. the fuel alone is astronomical (ROFL). one thing the moon has is fuel. another thing the moon has is physical structural materials. a little bit of mining equipment makes a lot of bit of building material and fuel supply. trust me on this one geezer if we both live to see it i'll bet you the moon is used as an intermediate base. my plans have been laid for a long time. first the moon, then the asteroid belt, then the outer moons, then the galaxy.

What? Walk me through your logic, since from what I know the resources required to bring an asteroid into Earth orbit are reasonable (big rear end rocket, space craft, some kind of towing apparatus) and in fact this is currently in NASA's horizon, as opposed to a MOON BASE which would require tons of material and human habitations and multiple launches (dozens).

redshirt posted:Not really. It's not concentrated and would require massive resources to extract. It would be easier to get it from ocean water here on sweet, sweet Earth. Even easier to breed tritium from lithium and let the tritium decay into He-3 There is literally no reason to go into space for economical reasons. If platinum bullion was sitting on the moon in nice stacks it would be too expensive to go pick it up.

Neil Armstrong and wife lost a young daughter to a brain tumor, and Neil named a crater on the Moon after her, so, ironically, her name will live on hopefully forever, while her body only lasted 3 years.
