Apparently everyone is going back to the moon to setup bases maybe to use as a springboard to Mars.
NASA is planning a moonbase, China is also planning one and as we all know, Elon Musk wants to get to Mars within his lifetime.
Why all this sudden interest in returning to the moon?
A distraction from events on earth? Another way to add to the US deficit? Military bases in space?
Who knows but expect this to be talked up as the MSM tries to frame it as another big step for mankind when it may turn out to be one the most destructive initiatives ever as earht gets attacked by rougue AI running a moon base.
We asked the Clangers for their comment but all we heard was a strange whistling sound and then Major Clanger told us:
'Sod it, the bloody thing's stuck again' (he was referring to the metal hatch over his undergound cave).
