Looking over the Falcon 9 heavy proposed launch system, and the proposed powered down landing capability mentioned earlier on this blog, it may be possible to return to the Moon in a short time at a much cheaper price. It would be interesting if such a mission was undertaken with a goal of determining the feasibility of mining the lunar surface. This ought to be a high priority.
If fossil fuels are yesterday's energy, then tomorrow's energy had better speed up. That's because tomorrow's energy might be needed a lot sooner than anyone thinks. And tomorrow's energy isn't here yet.
