This week, were heading into space to find out how well live, work and eat on the moon. We have space homes and a spacewoman. All of a sudden, it clicked in my head. Wow, the International Space station is a submarine in space. Moon bots and moon dust. The surface is fine and powdery. I can pick it up loosely with my toe.

Youll notice from some of the footage, the landing pads are quite huge on the landing legs and the ladder s far away from the surface. There was a lot of concern of, how much will this lander sink into the surface . How fluffy is this regolith . The surface is fine and powdery. I can. | can pick it up loosely with my toe.
