Why not put a space station on the moon?

Cairo – Samia Saeed – Having a space station on the moon would be very useful because it would provide a stopping point for future space missions between leaving Earth and reaching the solar system or the Milky Way, but if the space station on the moon is not sent often, humans have been sent there six times so far. Only able to send astronauts to the moon.

According to the website,SpaceLandings on the Moon took place over a period of three years between 1969 and 1972, and were part of a series of space missions known as the Apollo missions.

The type of rocket used to send astronauts to the moon is powerful Saturn Vs., Which is no longer in production, which means we do not currently have a powerful rocket to take people to the moon.

Space Research Institute SpaceX New and larger rockets are capable of carrying astronauts’ weight to the moon, and NASA is also planning new missions to take astronauts to the moon.

But there is a big difference between a small trip and setting up a space station on the moon.

It will look like the way the International Space Station was built, with the pieces being taken into space and then assembled by astronauts on the space shuttle.

However, the International Space Station is only 250 miles (400 km) from the Earth’s surface, and the Moon is 230,000 miles (384,000 km) away.

Each trip to the moon takes about three days and requires a large amount of fuel, which can add to Earth’s climate problems.

We also need to think about what the astronauts living in the space station need. The supply of food and electricity to electrical equipment, food production, and the air that allows air to pass are very important.

Scientists are working on how to grow food in space at the International Space Station, and astronauts are experimenting with growing vegetables using earthen mats.

Getting energy on the moon can be very complicated and the best way is to use solar energy from the sun, however, the moon rotates every 28 days.

This means that a space station in a fixed position on the moon will be facing the sun for 14 days, then dark for 14 days, and without light, solar-powered equipment will not work.

One way to overcome this problem is to build a space station on the moon’s north or south pole and raise the solar panels above the surface so that the panels receive continuous sunlight so that they do not rotate and block. Planet, but all of these are very difficult and not easy to implement.
