Should We Develop The Moon?

from the time-for-expansion dept

Apparently there's quite a debate going on about whether or not we should be allowed to develop the moon with business (and, of course, hotels with special lunar golf courses and tennis courts) or if it should be left alone as a scientific preserve. There is, of course, the compromise solution of industrialize some of it, while leaving the rest protected. I hadn't even realized we were discussing sending anyone back to the moon, let alone colonizing it in any way.

    I am against developing the moon. Among other things they would make the moon a giant billboard and sell ad space that we could see from earth.
