The '''Lunar Explorers Society''' is an organisation dedicated to achieving permanent presence of humanity on the [[Moon]]. The Society is open to all people in the world with an interested in [[Lunar exploration]]. It hopes to bring the best of humanity to the [[Moon]], and to bring the benefits of the [[Moon]] to all people on [[Earth]].

However, several robotic [[Lunar exploration]] missions have been conducted since the beginning of the 1990's. These missions fuelled the desire to return to the [[Moon]] among many Lunar enthusiast, and this was the background for the establishment of the '''Lunar Explorers Society''' in 2000. The founding members saw the need for an organisation where the members could share knowledge, join forces and pursue their ultimate goal: To establish a permanent human presence on the [[Moon]] to the benefit of all people on [[Earth]].

== Objectives ==
*To support the establishment of a permanent human presence on the [[Moon]]
*To promote international cooperation between scientists working with Lunar exploration by providing a neutral platform for their discussions
*To raise awareness of what could be achieved by returning to the Moon through educational and outreach activities
*To promote the peaceful and fair use of the resources available on the [[Moon]], to the benefit of mankind

== The Young Lunar Explorers Award ==
The Young Lunar Explorers Award is presented to a worthy candidate once every year, at the anual International Conference on the Exploration and Utilisation of the Moon. The awards have been given to the following winners:
*2005: The [[SSETI]] Express team
*2004: [[International Space University]] (ISU)

== History ==
The '''Lunar Explorers Society''' was founded 14th July 2000, during the 4th International Conference on the Exploration and Utilisation of the Moon (ICEUM4). There, the 156 ICEUM4 participants signed the founding declaration of the Lunar Explorers Society.
