Colonization of the Moon | Is There A Place Beyond That?

 

For centuries, mankind has been staring at the sky, and each movement within the sky would increase its Curiosity.

He kept wondering what the moon, sun and stars are?

Is there a place beyond that?

As time went on, man became technically self-sufficient through his own quest. Even now it is happy to establish colonies on the moon, Mars and to set foot on other planets.

Establishing colonies on the moon was a dream. Early ideas were fantasy and science fiction, but modern engineering, and the development of the spacecraft industry has now given rise to new hopes.

A design for Lunar City, a city to be built on the moon, was launched in 2005 [accepted at various aerospace conferences], first reported that the Lunar City with a diameter of 25 miles (ca. 40 km) and 5,000 feet (1.52 km) from Shackleton Crater. A huge pitcher in moon’s South Pole is called Shackleton Crater.

At first glance, this embankment may seem structurally impossible, but materials such as basalt fibers and S glass can make such a structure possible.

About 160 million tons of silica will be needed to make the Shackleton Dome. The substance found on the surface of the moon, Anorthite, can also be used. It has to be equivalent to 2.5 million tons per hour for digging, processing and manufacturing.

The design and structure of this dome is such that the anchoring system, maintenance system, repair in case of any disaster will be facilitated by all assembling autonomous robots.

The basic unit is a hexagonal pentagonal surface structure of glass with a titanium frame attached to similar units, the glass shield module is two to three meters thick.

According to a conservative estimate, construction could began in 20 years and be completed in about 15 years.

The original city will be built underground. The city will consist of several sections that will connect to the passenger rail transport system. As the underground infrastructure expands, large-sized sub-domes will be built and integrated into the system. Will be done The dome itself will be a substantial structure and, upon completion, will allow for the first lunar settlement, the actual housing, recreation and business areas for human settlement on the surface of the moon.

Due to limited resources and space, life on the moon will largely depend on vegetables, while fish farming is also being considered as an option. The moon is rich in natural resources, such as vast reserves of helium, and hopes for new opportunities for the mining and engineering sectors in the future.

Helium 3, is an efficient energy source. You can estimate that twenty-five ton helium 3 can keep the entire United States lit for a year. Life on the moon is very different from life on earth. One day of the moon is equal to 5 days of the earth.

Since the cities will be settled on the South Pole of the moon, which is the brightest part of the moon, the nights will be less.

There is no doubt that a dome city on the moon is technically feasible. The development of the technology required for this project will result directly from the technology required for the mass production of space solar energy satellites, and helium 3. If developed, this lunar dome project would be the next step. NASA has estimated the settlement at 10 billion and will require 2 billion per year to maintain it.
