Nuclear Power would be the most stable power source that we could use to keep a steady flow of power. Running out of power would be a disaster as the inflatable pressurized shelter is what would be keeping us alive. The first ideal would be solar energy however, just like earth, the moon only gets sunlight part of the day. Power would be needed to keep the pressurized shelter inflated if that’s what we had to be used. An inflatable structure would only be a temporary fixture as sunlight would most likely breakdown the structure over time.
One solution would be to ship an inflatable structure that could quickly and easily be erected on the moon. Living in a pressurized shelter on the moonĪ pressurized shelter would need to be shipped to the moon as the raw material is not present on the moon. Growing plants’ process needs elements that are not present on the moon, so these would need to be shipped. If there were a colony on the moon, you would have to multiply this by the number of people. Getting food on the moonįood would be a problem as humans eat around 450 pounds of dehydrated food per year. Or at least a lot easier than we once thought it would be to get water on the moon. However, with the recent discovery of water on the moon, extracting water from the moon should be possible with this discovery. Shipping water to the moon would have been expensive and needed to be routinely carried out trip. Water is a critical element of human life and would have been a huge problem until very recently. It shouldn’t take too much to turn the oxygen in the ground into breathable air, so one less item to ship. Is Breathable air Possible on the moon?īreathable air shouldn’t be too much of a problem as the soil on the moon contains oxygen. But how possible would it be to do this? Let us find out. Getting these resources extracted from the moon itself would be the best, as shipping to the moon will cost a lot. To even consider the possibility of living on the moon, you will need a couple of critical elements. There are many space missions ongoing trying to overcome the challenges so we can, at some point, live on the moon. Because we simply don’t have the resources on the moon to support life on the moon.
Can we live on the moon? It’s something I have pondered over on many cold nights as I look in amazement into the night sky.Īt the moment, we can not live on the moon. The same happens when we view the brightest object in the night sky, the moon. As you find a distant object, amazement can lead to questions like how far away is the star in our eyepiece. Having a night of backyard stargazing as your eyes gaze around the night sky, your discoveries lead to questions.
