Should we protect the moon against the mining?
1) Moon as a power station
The Moon (1) is only a remarkable natural satellite of our planet, and it has a very important role for mankind and other species on Earth. In some ideas, the Moon would be terminated by using a nuclear blast, which will launch in the nucleus of that natural satellite, and the bites would collect from the space.
That thing causes that the tidal forces would end, what might cause something, what can have a similar effect with the extinction of dinosaurs, so this is why that thing has ever made. In this "worst of all hypothesis," an extremely powerful nuclear weapon would turn the Moon to the asteroid cloud, which would impact the Earth, and cause terrible destruction.
But Moon is otherwise really important for the people and species on the Earth. One thing that the Moon makes to us is the tidal waves, which are important for many species on our planet.
2) Source of Helium 3
There have been introduced ideas to capture Helium 3 ions to the Mylar bags and return that thing to Earth. Those bags would be extremely thin and thick material, what mission is to keep those ions inside that balloon. The magnetic field would pull those ions in that bag, and it can be used in the fusion reactor, which could be operative someday.
In some other ideas, the large areas of the moon would be covered by using the solar panels, and the electricity would transfer to Earth by using the radio wave or maser ray, which is targeted to the radio antennas. In that way, the energy is easier to transport to electric delivery.
The radio wave is the electricity itself. The reason why the electricity is transferred by using radio waves is that this type of radiation would be safer than using the laser, which can cause terrible destruction if it would point to the wrong point. The mission of those antennas is to deliver the energy to the electric circuit.
3) But what if we would get minerals from Moon? What if that would cause that the Moon loses its mass?
Mass of the Moon is one of the most interesting things and in some ideas, the Moon would be covered by using the steel plates. In this theoretical superstructure, people would live under those plates, which is making the protective roof over people, who live on the hypothetical Moon station.
When the radio waves or electrons are hitting the steel plates they are turning to electricity. The problem is that the steel plates would be acting like radio antennas, which are conducting the electricity to the Moon, which would get more mass from that effect.
The major problem would be that the steel structure will focus the radiation in the center of the Moon, and that can cause that the nucleus of the Moon is starting to melt, which can cause that this orbiter of Earth will be broken. Or the mass of the Moon would start to grow, which causes an increase in the tidal force. Or in the worst case in the Moon would be forming the stable singularity, what would pull the entire Moon inside it, and then the destruction continues on Earth.
For many people, the Moon is one very dominating particle in the night sky and that thing is the small asteroid, which would include things like expensive minerals. But should we just begin the mining industry at our Moon?
This is one of the most interesting questions in the world of technology. If we would start to bring the material from the moon to Earth, that thing causes a really interesting effect, and that is that the Moon is turning sooner or later lighter, and this kind of thing has an effect on the tide on Earth.
The lighter moon causes that the tidal waves would turn lower, and this kind of thing would cause a very big effect on the ecosystem on Earth. This is the problem with the mining industry on the Moon, and if the tidal forces would be stopped, that thing would have many effects on the environment on Earth.
