| |
| − | o Polar Sites
| |
| − | + Pros
| |
| − | # Both poles have "peaks of eternal sunshine" for power generation
| |
| − | # Thermal conditions do not vary greatly through the sunth (lunar month)
| |
| − | # Both poles are in the center of extensive coldtrap or permashade areas
| |
| − | where we expect to find water-ice deposits
| |
| − | + Cons
| |
| − | # Both poles are rugged highland areas in which construction may be difficult
| |
| − | # The sunlight always comes in at, just above, or just below the horizon
| |
| − | creating visibility and location identification problems
| |
| − | # The high amount of total tonnage needed to erect a solar power tower system
| |
| − | # Expected polar ice-deposits are of unknown quantity, concentration, and
| |
| − | difficulty of extraction
| |
| − | # All our efforts mastering the challenges of the polar areas, will not
| |
| − | prepare or enable us to set up outposts elsewhere on the Moon
| |
| − | # The polar highlands do not offer all the resources needed for
| |
| − | industrialization
| |
| − | # Solar wind hydrogen, with which to make water, is available anywhere on the
| |
| − | Moon
| |
| − | o Mare-Highland Coast sites

| − | + Pros

| − | # Access to both major regolith suites
| |
| − | # Some coastal sites are also ilmenite rich
| |
| − | # Some coastal sites may involve potassium and phosphorus rich KREEP deposits
| |
| − | # Some coastal sites involve subsurface lavatubes
| |
| − | # Maria provide extensive areas of obstacle free transit
| |
| − | # Some coastal sites are much closer to the nearest circumpolar coldtraps,
| |
| − | than either pole itself is to the nearest coast
| |
| − | # other
| |
| − | + Cons
| |
| − | # Extreme dayspan-nightspan temperature swings are a challenge to vehicle and
| |
| − | structure design, as well as to lubricants
| |
| − | # The need to store up enough power during dayspan to get through the lunar
| |
| − | nightspan
| |
| − | # Counterpoint: mastering these twin challenges will allow us to set up shop
| |
| − | and settle anywhere on the Moon.
