00:06there are many reasons for that, but it's kind of a gift.
00:09It's so near Earth. We can get there in three and a half days. We can return in three and
00:14a half days.
00:14You can go anytime you want. You don't have to wait for the planetary alignment to be just right.
00:20You can only go to Mars every two years or so.
00:23And so there are a lot of advantages to the moon. Our long-term vision, our dream, is that all
00:30the polluting industry can be done off Earth.
00:33If space travel gets reliable enough and inexpensive enough, and we can get materials from asteroids and near-Earth objects
00:41and the moon,
00:43then this garden planet can be returned to its pre-industrial revolution state.
00:51This is the only way in which the world is worse today than it was 500 years ago.
