Rooting for all of it. I'm building a game set at the lunar south pole, and that low sun makes it the most dramatic place I can think of for a base.

Our teams are excited to be part of the vendor pool for @NASA's CLPS 2.0 landers and support the Moon to Mars goals.

月球基地真正的分水岭，不是任务数量，而是谁愿意持续买单。商业交付、核动力漫游车和轨道转移都能立项，难的是形成可重复采购，而不是一次性奖项。

Nuclear power is the key difference from the solar Mars rovers. I am curious about what the thermal rejection looks like in permanent shadow versus full sun, and how much margin is left if the radiators pick up dust.

Easier to create artificial gravity In moon orbit than on the moon? Get a few days at earth normal Gravity. Then back to work on the moon.

核动力漫游车目前推进到哪一步了？挺好奇它能在月面连续工作多久。

How long until we can compete in Moon Rally?

NASA you’re doing all these great things, but explain to me how you are still having astronauts exit the capsule into rubber boats bobbing in the ocean.. and you’ve been doing this since the 1960s!!! get a ship like SpaceX has and put the capsule on the ship!!!

How mush area can be claimed as a base?

H3 mining work?

Nuclear-powered rovers? There's no need for that pollution on the moon. The 60's battery technology was absolutely impressive, those rovers and astronauts went for miles and miles with no solar panels help. Right? ;)

In my mind's eye, I am looking up at a crescent moon. In the darkness there are pinpoints of light, shining from NASA's Moon Base complex. It's a grand thought! Go NASA! Go NASA Moon Base!

Starship will carry comm satellites to lunar orbit in 2028? That'll be a light load and require fewer refillings in LEO but will still require some, afaik. So they're adding to their load in that short period of when they're flying the demo and then the crewed Artemis 4.

Better get on it before China or Russia thinks that can do it before you.

Y'all need to step this s**t up man. I'm an old man who wants to see humanity as a permanent multi-world species before I die ffs! You know, survival of the fittest and all. 🫡
