Sounds to me like it's about time we build an observatory on the moon.

I hear you, but let me propose: prison on the moon, and we send Elon there.

I'm okay with the Moon eventually becoming a good place to visit maybe after several several generations -- hopefully this time with less of a chance to displace native populations. It's only slightly more hostile to human life than Australia after all.

That raises an interesting question. What would we do if the moon declared independence and was self sustaining?
