This concept paper by S. Akerley discusses the future of lunar resource utilization and its implications for space missions. It highlights the potential for a lunar base focused on constructing and processing materials essential for various missions, including extracting essential resources such as oxygen and Helium-3. The paper also explores the establishment of a material depot at the L5 point, focusing on robotic construction and servicing existing satellites. Through resource recycling back to Earth orbit, the paper outlines a vision for an active cis-lunar economy, crucial for sustained space exploration efforts.
