2:07.8

before that the years had been an advantage to launching from the moon, but you also listed

2:12.8

a series of problems that could create a short life on the surface of the moon. Do we,

2:21.7

at this point, have the engineering to build a grid work of livable modules on the moon

to and from to sustain human life?

2:30.7

Yes, John, definitely we have the technology. We have to fill up soft, soft, soft, and

2:35.5

problems like we talked about before. But those problems, the engineering problems are

2:39.8

solvable. We know how to build these space station like modules. We know how to fly

2:44.8

into the moon. We know how to land things on the moon. Some new technology has to be

developed for covering them in regular initially for shielding. But the engineering aspects
