About Those Lava Tubes Discovered on the Moon

In surveying M. Kaiku's new book (2001) on the future of technology the intersting point was mentioned about lava tubes discovered on the moon in 2009. These would be larger, evidently than that at the crater of Haliakala.

As any homeless person in a cold climate would know, it is warmer indoors than outside in a tent. Obviously future lunar troglydites could have a good time raising swine in the spare lava tube to provide methane gas and barbeque.

The doctor of theoretical physics also mentioned the possibility of rebirthing the neanderthal race thanks to complete mapping o neaderthal genomes-obviously we can see a natural role for those odurate individuals in lunar habitation.

Space colonization is primarily limited by the cost of launching to and from planetary or moon surfaces with heavy gravity. Hopefully N.A.S.A.'s new motto will be 'we shall overcome expensive launches'.
