The moon, lacking atmosphere, shielding from cosmic radiation, and a number of other important factors for life, is almost certainly never going to be able to support it. If by some freak accident that changes, it almost certainly won't be for millions or billions of years. Why is disrupting a hypothetical future that probably won't happen and that we have very little chance of realistically disrupting an ethical concern? I can only respond to this with "wat." | |

| Jan 11, 2019 at 19:29 | comment | added | Nuclear Hoagie | It's effectively impossible to prove a negative; we will never be able to claim with 100% certainty that any celestial body is completely devoid of life. Does that make the prospect of stellar colonization an unethical venture from the get-go? | |
