What does profitability have to do with lunar exploration? Damn, this profit obsessed government can’t even conceive of anything else.

If they want profit, they should be working harder to capture mineral rich asteroids to mine at a Lagrange point.

I've never seen the light on the farside of the moon so you can't prove it isn't always dark /s

"They are going to have a lander on the far side of the moon, which is the side that's always in dark."

Not one of his finer moments :)

god it's sad to see a NASA admin say the far side of the moon is always dark. It's brighter than what we see.
