NASA Now Accepting Applications From Companies That Want To Mine the Moon

[DEAD7]

"The Verge reports, "NASA is now working with private companies to take the first steps in exploring the moon for valuable resources like helium 3 and rare earth metals. Initial proposals are due tomorrow for the Lunar Cargo Transportation and Landing by Soft Touchdown program (CATALYST). One or more private companies will win a contract to build prospecting robots, the first step toward mining the moon. Final proposals are due on March 17th, 2014. NASA has not said when it will announce the winner."

If we reach a point where NASA doesnt need govt. funding, that seems like it would be a good thing for all parties involved.

Cacs gonna cac. Weren't they mining some planet in the move ALIENS(1986)? Wouldn't be surprised or upset if they dig too far in the wrong direction and bring back an intergalactic virus or some shyt along with them. When a person of color sees some new scape or meets a new people, they try to learn about them and exchange cultures a little. When Cacs come across a new scape or culture the first thing that comes to their mind is "How can we exploit it?" Disgusting.

Shut up fool. History has shown us that cacs cannot be trusted. Every culture or locale they have spread to has been destroyed. They are a virus and must be exterminated or we will all die.
