It seems unrealistic to me to send people and assume that no procreation is going to happen, unless you either send all males or make sure everyone is sterile. Otherwise, you kind of have to assume that at some point someone is going to have kids.

Assuming they don't send condoms/birth control/only send people who's faith prohibits such things.

I imagine they'll get sterilised before they go. Space is a bad place for reproductive cells anyway with all that radiation.

SPACE SPERM.
In zero gravity that could make one hell of a mess. You don't want your oxygen generator to shut down a month from lil' old Earth because you got a little frisky.

The mechanics of a 2-person operation in microgravity are a bit tricky, and our current space population is a bit too busy/disciplined for the 1-person version.

As it turns out, the moon is also red/brown. Huh. At least on that landing site.

Oh man, how did I miss that Falcon 9 launch.  SpaceX just is a never ending supply of good news.

Chinese spacecraft "Jade Rabbit" has successfully landed on the Moon.

Congratulations to the people of China as well as the rest of the world. I'm pleased to see success in extra-planetary exploration by new sources and welcome it in the hope for friendly rivalries if not even better relationships through cooperation by boldly going where humanity or our machines have not gone before.

To late. That one has been posted in one of the other threads before.

Besides, there's no more proof that it is indeed water than when we spotted similar phenomena in 2011(IIRC)

And no more proof that it isn't. We don't know anything about these flows. Therefore, the need to study them.
