Um, question. If there's a minimal atmosphere and no weather, wouldn't the water be a finite resource?

Oh oh. It's only a matter of time before we get some wild-eyed moon huggers saying, "Hey, you can't use up that water! You're going to destroy a pristine environment!"

Once you have the necessary supply of water inside a dome, you can, at least in theory, create a more or less self-perpetuating ecosystem. Kinda like a starship...

Oh, okay. Sounds like a hard job. And an expensive one. You'd have to get Bill Gates on board.

You know there is an old Celine Dion song from her second English Album called "Water From The Moon" it's been stuck in my head ever since I saw this. :vulcan:
