 Hydrogen has many proposed applications in a lunar environment. These include [[In-Situ_Propellant_Production#Hydrogen|rocket fuel]], energy storage, [[Ilmenite reduction#Hydrogen Reduction|reduction of metal]] and carbon oxides, and many other uses. Hydrogen production and recycling could become major functions of a lunar outpost.
-Deuterium could be used as fuel in nuclear fusion reactions, although the percentage of deuterium in lunar hydrogen is significantly less than on earth, which could make its production difficult.

+==Lunar Hydrogen Production==
 The moon is significantly depleted of hydrogen compared to the earth. On earth, hydrogen is most commonly found combined with [[oxygen]] in the form of [[water]] (H<sub>2</sub>O).  The Moon is much smaller than Earth, and its gravity is not strong enough to retain a gaseous atmosphere permanently. In addition, the moon lacks a magnetic field, allowing the solar wind to directly interact with its surface, constantly stripping away any atmosphere it manages to cling to. As a result, most of the volatiles of the Moon, including hydrogen, have long since evaporated and escaped into space.

 '''Hydrogen''' is the simplest, lightest, and first element formed after the big bang.  It is the most common element, making up approx 90% of the universe by weight.  Hydrogen is one of the highly useful and necessary elements believed to be in critically short supply on Luna.  Its most common nuclear permutation (isotope) is a single proton, although it can also exist with one (deuterium) or two (tritium) neutrons.  On Earth, hydrogen is most commonly found combined with [[oxygen]] in the form of [[water]] (H<sub>2</sub>O).  The Moon is much smaller than Earth, hence its gravity is not strong enough to retain liquid oceans nor gaseous amtosphere; most of the volatiles of the Moon, including hydrogen, have long since evaporated and escaped into space.
