Transportation Earth-Deep Space

Furthermore, several craters on the South Pole are known to contain water deposits in minable quality. By electrolysis, water can be decomposited into hydrogen and oxygen. Amongst others things, these elements can be used as rocket fuel.

Because of the lower Moon gravity, it is possible to launch rockets and bring them back to Earth nearly fully fueled. With the help of reusable rockets, it is possible to establish a transportation system without consuming large amounts of resources from Earth.

Phase 1

Phase 2

Phase 3

The final phase of the Lunar Port consists of four different launch pads and two rocket maintenance facilities. These are connected to the hydrogen and oxygen storages. There will also be a laboratory, technology centre, operational training area and accommodations. The whole area is supported by two greenhouses and several nuclear energy facilities.

The typical process at the port starts with a successful landing and transportation of the people by rover to the control centre, which also acts as a terminal in the first phases. From there on, people are brought to their final destinations by a cable car system.
