    Fear as a tool to raise budgets man, works with terrorists all the time.

    Thus why we have a military budget the same size as the next 25 nations
    combined and 24 are our allies, LOL.

    Fear makes BIG money, and besides we ONLY have 700+ bases in 100+ countries
    so we are not quite on track for that global government plan just yet, but it is
    not for a lack of US tax dollars being printed at the Fed at $65 billion a month
    and backed by nothing is the same method used by the Wiemar Republic.

    I think the best option would be a merging of a rover and a 3d printer that can replicate itself.

    Right now I think the sticking point is the IC's, entirely possibly other parts as well.

    The moon was ejected from the earth, so all the elements that are here are there as well.

    If they can get a 3d printer to make all the materials including IC's they got a shot at it.

    Well if they can send a lunar rover that is also a 3d printer, and it holds up better then jade rabbit from China

    Also if it is like the Rep Rap project and the 3d printer can self replicate for the most part or totally.

    Right now they need to focus on why jade rabbit had troubles, and why one of the mars rovers failed as well
    and overcome those oversights.

    I still think it would be better to build out solar thermal here on the planet with at least one major solar array per
    timezone, it would get sun 24 hrs a day, but setting up a global grid would be a major undertaking barring some

    Best power for japan would likely be offshore wind, geothermal, and ocean current

    Geothermal is no secret due to its long use in Iceland, and with binary cycle
