The Moon is by far the most attractive location for an off-Earth colony. Its nearness and one-sixth earth gravity make it much more easily accessible than for example the closest planet, Mars. This book follows MOON Base Colony from the Apollo 11 pre-history to its founding in early 2100 AD, and then for 10 centuries, 20 generations, of living on the Moon.
Everything is described in detail, including the life support recycling systems, and the social and physical changes that result from living close together underground, and in the greatly reduced gravity, for 20 generations. Written by a professional scientist, MOON Base Colony presents scientifically sound projections of what life would be like, for people living on the Moon over 20 generations. MOON Base Colony is science fiction now, before very long it or something like it will be be science fact.
If you like reading about people living on other worlds, you will enjoy reading this book about people living on the Moon..
