How does anyone feel if they were given a chance to stay on the moon?..Wow..!! Sounds exciting..Isn't it? Only time will tell the possibility.
Hole in moon
Scientists very recently found a deep, giant hole on the surface of moon which is suitable for setting up human colonies and townships. They identified a vertical hole in volcanic hills region of the lunar planet.But there are many more questions shooting out...Is is inhabitable ? Will the surface provide the proper base? and many more....
Many new things have been found and this new pit is considered as 213 feet wide and more than 260 feet(80-88 mts) deep.This is called the Lava tube.Lava tubes are nothing but passages which are commonly found on earth, and are underground cave-like channels through which lava once flowed. Lava does not flow now anymore(point to be noted). This credit of this discovery is to be given to Kaguyo(SELENE) spacecraft of Japan for taking such wonderful images.
Lava tubes
Lava tubes are protected from the environment on the Moon’s surface, so these tubes could be useful for lunar bases keeping future perspectives in mind. There were many holes that have been discovered in the past among which the prominent one was when moon was battered to pieces over the years from rocks of space.
This lava tubes are considered for human settlement becuse these tubes provide shelter from severe environment,of the lunar space, with its meteorite impacts and high energy UV radiation..hmmm. NASA is planning to set up a mission on moon again in 2020 to set up a temporary lunar colony by 2025.
Let's all wait and see if we can buy any part of the moon at least by 2040.
