Well, the moon is about 1.2 lightseconds away, so best case scenario you're looking at 1300-1500ms ping.

Nuclear reactor, robots to create solar panels from moon resources, pre assembled computer chips, land somewhere with water, recycle fucking everything, I mean everything, you are going to have to use your shit as fertilizer. Worked for the Asians.

Prepare to die/go insane from boredom and lonelyness and/or die from making a single mistake.

A trillion dollars would about cover it (this includes research).

NOPE

Signal has to go back.

You have to remember the moon goes black for 2 weeks out of the month, so Solar energy would be useless, considering the price. Best bet is a Thorium reactor, Which is still expensive but would be very very less expensive if our shitty government would spend more money on research.

They're isn't an atmosphere so there is no Water on the moon, It would have to be imported.

Right. so 3s or so. Brainfart.

Fuck, Mars better have its own internet from day 1 of human habitation.

>build solar panels
why don't just bring flexible solar panels from Earth? They aren't much heavy.
>insanity
that's why I mentioned Internet, even if slow if it can be used to communicate with people via tweeter.
Also, ebooks, films, games, some weed and the thought of being remembered forever may help.

Because every ounce counts when you're launching things into orbit. And Solar panels are bulky. And it's always better to build there than take with you.

Computer chips are taken because they are harder to build.

>>3920331

Unless you are located on the Shackleton Crater in the South Pole.

Yes, Mars and the Moon will both have their own internet. These "internets" will not be connected to eachother, or to the internet on earth. Interplanetary communication is fucking limited and a bitch to achieve, and won't be used just so kids can TROLL on 4chan.

>mfw I was awaiting for this
also, wrong quote kiddo.

>>3920359
But >70% isn't 100% are you going to have enough reserve energy from the solar panels to stay afloat.

Is there even going to be enough land mass to fit enough solar panels to keep a positive amount of energy?

>>3920385

>implying Earth is tidally locked too
hint: the supposed radio station is located in one point on the Earth and not on the whole globe.

dude, if someone could've done that, that billionaire dude from virgin mobile would have already done it.

he's funding aerospace travel like mad, trying to get into space.

plus, google moon dust.

There are several project about Shackleton Crater and almost all of those involve a Moon Lab with habitations for several people.
I think it would be enough for a relatively small capsule too.

>projects*

>>3920346
you know what would be crazy? if people lived on another planet and started their own internet, created their own memes and culture, and then we linked earth's internet with theirs...

it's funny to think about the internet like that

or maybe im just high

>>3920451
yeah it would man, it would.

>>3920319
the satellites that transmit signal are a lot nearer though just saying

Moon - Earth can be connected, I don't think it would be that hard to post on 4chan with a 3 second lag.

>>3920797
>Moon-Earth
>3 second lag.
Wat?

>no water
I missed that line. That's wrong.
It's proven that there's water on the Moon (ice) and it could be extracted microwaving the regolith.
