Moon Settlers Need Nukes, Not Just Cheese Repairs
Apparently, colonizing the moon isn’t just about planting flags and hopping around in bad gravity. We actually need energy—lots of it. As the article puts it, 'If we are to someday establish permanent settlements on the moon, they will require a lot of energy.' So forget solar-powered moon buggies; we’re eyeing extraterrestrial nuclear power like it’s the new space latte. Because nothing says home sweet home on the moon like controlled nuclear fission lighting up your lunar living room.

Oh, I’m sorry, did I miss the part where turning the moon into a giant nuclear hotspot sounded like a bright idea? So let me get this straight: permanent moon homes powered by ‘a lot of energy’ aka nuclear juice. What could possibly go wrong?
Moon bases powered by nukes? Great, because the moon’s charm is totally incomplete without a side of potential meltdown.
Thinking of building permanent settlements on the moon without bringing nuclear energy is like moving into a mansion and complaining about lack of electricity. Priorities, people.
