  • NASA plans to return humans to the Moon with the Artemis Program, as well as create a moon base. But China also plans to colonize the Moon, and they've already started.
    But how will we make a moon base? Who will colonize the Moon first? Is colonizing the Moon even a good idea?
    (yes)
    This is a new Space Race, between the United States and China. Whoever makes a moon base first will be a global superpower. But who will do it?

      Its because they actually dont care much about politics, when a country like the uk or us wants to develop something they need to go through a massive amount of bureaucracy and always the risk of lobbying or senate or courts disagreeing with the ruling party, or if the new election changes policy to reverse what the previous administration has done

    Indeed,we must settle on moon first before we go to Mars.
    The no-atmosphere condition is perfect for interplanetary ships to operate.

    First. The United States of America was the first-ever country to go to the moon during the Apollo landing during the height of the Cold War. Neil Armstrong was one of first people to walk on the moon. The first-ever human being in space was Yuri Gagarin, a Soviet Russian cosmonaut.

    There's really no point to a lunar base, though. In fact, it'd be an enormous drain on resources to support, and decades before the base yielded anything worthwhile in terms of a return. I'd also argue there is no second space race. The point of the original space race was to show off how far each nation's ICBM technology had come. The moon in that context was the ultimate "we can hit you with a nuke anywhere you can feasibly exist". Going back doesn't really prove much at this point, and there's not much on the moon worth returning for. Yes, space colonization is a big achievement, and maintaining a permanent colony somewhere would be quite the notch for any nation to have in their belt. But there's no real purpose beyond bragging rights lol. It's why the US never bothered to go back.

      we used to build cathedrals that took centuries for zero reason that never returned anything. and you say that there's no point to a lunar base because there isn't a return for decades?
