The commercial value and military value isn't necessarily in the moonbase itself but rather the technologies that are developed because of the moonbase.
How about a robotic moon base, no humans?Yeah but satellites are blah... a moon base has "cool" factor and the liberals could really rely on nationalistic pride to push the budget through.

A robotic factory building robotic probes...
I don't know what you are referring to.Will humanity become the next "Red Race"?
The truth is, a moon base is useless theres no scientific advantage to having a base on the moon except scientific prestige at having tons of money spent on you to do things you could be doing on earth.:rofl

Ah.Saberhagen's Berserker universe. The alien doomsday machines were created by the Red Race and then wiped them out in their programmed mission to destroy all life everywhere.
Right, but in such a generalized query, you are expected to make a few assumptions. I assumed the OP was wondering if we should begin to establish a base on the moon in the next decade or two.
Ah.
I was thinking more along the lines of scientific probes...
How did that, in any way at all, pertain to anything I said or that has been said in this thread?Can't do that. The Messiah, harbinger of hope for the future, decided to cancel American efforts to research and develop future methods of manned space exploration because the Messiah has no vision beyond that of a low-level community organizer aparatchik cog who believes socialism actually works to help the common man.
Anyone who can be that wrong about history isn't going to be doing the right thing when it comes to space exploration.

:lol:Like VeeGer in the first Star Trek Movie?
Or he knows a moon base is ****ing useless.
:lol:
Point, although I don't clearly remember the explanation for how it morphed from just a space probe into a massive search for all knowledge...
And I was thinking more on a solar system scale, not galactic.

Bold part is a bad idea...Then having established one up there, let us deport all Politicians from every country up there and let them sort out the problems prior to being permitted to return to Earth.
Also let us deport all sexual deviants to Venus.
