I thought of an emergency spaceship for the humans who would work on a lunar base. In case of emergency, the spaceship would transport the humans from the moon to the earth as soon as possible. It took more than eight days for Apollo 11 to return back to earth. This pace would be quite slow for an emergency vehicle. When you do the math, quite big rocket would be necessary for the job. A much feasible alternative would be to deploy an emergency room module with autonomous robotic personal. Then, health intervention would be much faster and deploying the module on the moon would be more feasible than a giant rocket.
The biggest problem with this solution is that there is no such robotic emergency room exist. As I keep repeating, the success on space depends on improvements on earth. Many technologies required for a successful solar expansion for humans rely on systems that would be utilized on earth first. Proper health personal is difficult to source in many rural areas. Robotic health solutions would bring better health service to remote locations on earth. Even the military would benefit from that. The progress on such a goal is very slow. Big goals cannot be attained with slow pace. Like a rocket that requires high thrust to free itself from the gravity, big goals require high momentum to achieve their goals.
On my next article, I will propose a path for such a goal.
