Russia announced that it would establish a permanent moon base by 2040. “This process has the beginning, but has no end,” said deputy prime minister Dmitry Rogozin. “We are going to come to the moon forever.”
Please! Let us not fall behind. I am SO into the space program!! We NEED to expand from this one little planet! So easily could we wipe ourselves out. I'm not even interested in my own puny genes..... just I think the human race has a LOT of potential. So let us expand! The more colonies the better!!
And yes, I have read all of RA Heinlein's books. He was WAY before his time!

I'm with you there, we need a moon base too. :)
Hehe, russia? You want the moon? Huh? Well we got a fother mucking planet! XD
I want to say "not the way I do it" but, god, what a lie that'd be XD
I DON'T THINK SO! >:U
Therefore this is not a priority. Let's slash NASA's budget some more.
But don't worry, not all the bases will be Russian, the Chinese will probably have the strength of numbers.
(yes I "own" a piece of land on the moon)
