yeah, pretty bad video, doesn't even touch the real problems of a moon colony, like 1/6th Earth gravity, solar wind and cosmic rays fucking you up unless underground, Earth's magnetotail causing charge build up, deadly moon dust, 300 degrees day/night temperature differences and more..

Aside from, possibly, large meteors, can't think of anything you'd need to be 75 meters under for.

<1 meter handles all of that: >>10010349

(Plus it did mention underground a few times, though the imagery was kinda suggesting otherwise, and trading metals is going full retard.)

I was planning to make a thread here and see how many things they fucked up/didn't take into account. They are heavily sugarcoating things and keeping shit sci-fi. It's going to be way harder to start a colony than how they describe it. Not that I wouldn't like that, but if I had to guess I'd say it won't be in my lifetime.

"Getting our shit together" is impossible here, as it's simply no longer possible to set up a new sort of society on Earth without instant interference from all the existing ones, or relying on their good grace to leave you alone inside their borders, which rarely lasts.

Plus, pic related.

...and we can't make another one, eventually, we're all going down with the inevitably doomed ship.

Actually don't see anything really wrong with that assessment, save that it's lacking in some details, nuance, and history (though a good chunk of that history would just show how often we've repeated this cycle).

Though I've not seen their refugee crisis vid, and I doubt I'd be apt to agree with it.

Well, there is water on the moon. Out of water, you can synthesize oxygen and hydrogen, out of which you can produce rocket fuel. Due to moon's low gravity, you could also build a mass driver there, and shoot the rocket fuel out into lunar orbits.

You're delusional if you think you can make moon manufacturing competitive even if lower gravity is accounted for.

It takes countless companies and workers to turn raw materials into usable space hardware. Also, good luck getting material for synthetic polymers there.
