The JAXA lunar probe SELENE has found a potential location for our upcoming moon base. Why do we need to worry about where on the moon we're putting our evil facility? Watch and find out!

  • Rofl... did she really say "lava tube"? I got some pre sumerian beach front property I wanna sell you too.

  • @SeeTheWholeTruth You're not familiar with lava tubes? Earth, Luna, Mars all have them. Likely other planets too. If you're one of those goofball conspiracy theorists, feel free to move on.

  • the burned side of your body burns the frozen side away untill your a scattered stream of atoms dissolved into the regolith surface. Which burning, freezing process may take some hours,

    But the end result will be as i said.

  • Even if they did land between light and dark for the purpose of averaging the temperature. It doesnt work. In a vaccuum that which is heated and lighted trough light radiation (sun/starlight) is 100degrees above zero celsius. And surfaces that are out of any visible light are 100degrees below zero. Which would mean the the front of your body facing the sun is 100degrees plus. And the back of your body at minus 100.

    Eventually one side will burn away, and the other side will freeze away until

  • u stupid the astronauts wont land between light and dark just so it'd be the right temp. That's why they wear special suits so the temp. would be perfect for them! also they have special visors so they dont go blind from the sun! do seriousely think we r that desperate to be on the moon, c'mon!

  • How do you protect astronauts from the shifts of temperature? By digging! A mere few meters below the surface lunar rock retains a cozy >20C regardless of lunar day/night.

  • Mars and the moon has no molten core like the earth, that creates a magnetic field, to protect us from the sun and other cosmic radiation.

  • awesome vid carri

  • That was the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

    The giant laser is at the bottom of the lava tube, and then an elevator brings it up so it can shoot.
