Description: | Recommendations are made for the early stages of a lunar farm. These recommendations include the use of semi-subsurface or subsurface structures for a lunar farm to mitigate the impact of harmful radiation, micrometeorites and severe temperature variations; and the construction of a settlement at a polar location, to increase insolation and access to water ice. |
