In 2030 ESA will build the first Human colony in Moon

Tales about the existence of a land on the Moon turned out to be a myth. When the first time set foot on the Moon on July 21, 1969, human ensure that the Earth's satellite was dry. There's no rabbits especially goddesses inhabiting it.

However, with the science and technology almost makes everything possible. Including, to makes the barren Moon as a human habitation.

The European Space Agency (ESA) revealed the plans to build a human base on the Moon. Amazingly, a program called 'Moon Village" will be built with the help of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology. The forward base will help humans to explore the galaxy and the universe.

Not necessarily sent the humans to there. The plan, the robot will be the first landed on the Moon, to prepare the Moon's surface to be inhabited by humans. A number of the base concept designs has also been made.

In the future, the astronauts can use the Moon to explore other celestial bodies like Mars - NASA's main target. Previously, the water was found in the surface of the Red Planet, which further fueled speculation alien presence there.

ESA suggests the target of colonies on the Moon in the 2-day conference, titled 'Moon 2020-2030 - A New Era of Coordinated Human and Robotic Exploration' was held at the European Space Research and Technology Centre in Noorwijk, Netherlands. The conference, which followed 200 scientists and experts discussed human leap in the future in terms of exploration of outer space.

Kathy Laurini of a NASA scientist optimistic, the ESA's base on the Moon would be a stepping stone for astronauts to be sent to Mars.

"ESA's space exploration strategy is to make the Moon as a priority goal, which can be used as a stepping stone for a human to Mars," as she told the SPACE.com, as quoted by News.com.au on Monday, January 4, 2016.

"And talk about the 'Moon Village' generate positive energy in Europe - which plays an important role in the scenario of human exploration of the universe," added Laurini.

In 2013, ESA conducted a serial of tests about the possibility of using the Moon soil as a 'building materials' for the manufacture of the human base. With the help of three-dimensional printers - that process the materials to be used as a dome, which protects humans there from space radiation.

"3D printing technology can be used to produce an overall structure," said Laurent Pambaguian, the project leader. "Our industrial team is investigating whether the technology could be used to build habitats on the Moon." *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | NEWS.COM.AU]
