You know those large machines that make tunnels (chunnel and other tunnels), we need to get one of those babies up to the moon, then start boreing, of course we wont have an easy access to water to make the cement, but I am sure we can think of something to stengthen and seal the walls.
One of the things I wonder about is who owns what. I think it is whoever gets there first and is occupying it. Ohh I am sure there is some LAW on the books, but that law don't mean squat till more than one person/country is up there actually going places.
I would like to see a post on the moon, though some of the books I have read say that the moon is just another gravity well. If there was a Base in one of the Lagrange points, that makes more sense (to the authors).
I have read one of the big things would be to build at the pole's and make a large solar array so it could always face the sun as the moon rotates around the earth, that way they would get the max amount of energy, then I thought if the solar panels acted like a sail then we would have to have a twin at the south pole otherwise the moon would start to spin, BUT if you have a panels on the north and south, then is would be a sail then perhaps it might wobble a bit as it rotates around the earth.
