Japs found the secret hole
>>
>>17044540
Realistically, how do you plug the hole in order to pressurize all of the cave with breathable air?
>>
>>17044544
Very easy, any sort of plugging would do it. Concrete or something.
>>
>>17044540
By the way that picture is 16 years old, from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter in 2010. The Japs had discovered the pit in 2008 with SELENE/Kaguya
>>
>>17044549
So it's legal to keep on your computer by now?
>>
>>17044546
We can syntherize bricks out of regolith and maybe print some structures out of it, but making a humongous dome out of them is out of the question. It would also require quite the scaffolding and sealant.
>>
The moon is artificial. it didn't used to be there within human time scales but something placed it where it is

>>17044544
You would just run some balloon over it, wouldn't take all that long depending on how big that hole actually is.
>>
>>17044540
Hollow
>>
>>17044540
Regolith is abrasive, at least on the surface. Is it likely true for lunar material beneath the surface?
>>
We, Humans, should enter that hole.

wtf? we were allies. don't rat us out like that.
>>
>>17044544
Just use big fan to redirect escaping air back into the cave
>>
>>17044540
Hollow earth was a psyop, it's actually the moon that's hollow.
>>
ur momma after I finish inside her
>>
It’s very likely the walls inside the hole would be porous allowing atmosphere to escape. All the insides would have to be reinforced, not only to stop air escaping but also to protect against lunar regolith which can get into people’s lungs and be very nasty. Like breathing glass.
>>
>>17044648
I don't think so. It wouldn't be pulverized by billions of years of micrometeorite impacts
>>
>>17044540
this is remarkable. japs don't see holes very often, so good for them
>>
>>17044540
Do they get to keep it?

Well, not holes without tentacles in them.
>>17045782
Seems like the type of concrete slurry sprayed on tunnel walls in Earth would work but I wonder how well that process could be adapted to Lunar gravity and no atmosphere to chemically react with.
Guess much of it will depend on how well local resources can be used and how much the cost of delivering resources from Earth can be lowered.

Bingo. Eveything is going to depend on materials science and to what extent we will be able to use native materials for fabrication and construction. Is mooncrete even possible?
>>
>>17046237
>Is mooncrete even possible?
Water shortage makes it hard. Maybe laser sintering regolith into an impermeable layer

It's humanity's hole. We fit right in there. I wonder where it leads...

Apparently to one anon’s future moongooncave

The man is willing to share his water for the tribe and the land. He is truly a hero.

kek, nice joke pic.

As far as this and all other moon stories go... without first finding vast amounts of water on the moon that is easily accessed the entire exercise of terraforming it is retarded
>>
Now they're just ripping off movie plots? This is Alien v Predator 2004's intro storyline.

But the anus is ok to show? Are you suggesting that's the moon's mussy?

Empty lava tube, they're on every rocky planet. It may or may not go very far before collapsing.


>>17044544
You build a habitat inside the tube. While you might want to install some endcaps and paint some sealant, install some cave in protection, the moon is very cold and you will want some insulation/standoff and an inner pressurized wall.

The moon is a little cold to just raw-dog your astronauts against the natural regolith/stone.

A second, smaller hole. You'll never guess what's inside that one.

Even if you did that, it's not like you can just walk around inside. The dust on the moon is like very sharp pieces of glass. You really don't want to get into contact with it or breath it in. Astronaut suits can only be used a few times before they break because of it.

this and the lack of easy water make the idea of doing anything perm on the moon so retarded. How they ever getting funding for that retarded crap is the real mystery.

Impressive. America only found bits of old wood.
