| − | :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 sibility 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
| |

| − | :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.
