Listing of essential considerations for the sustainable exploration and utilization of Earth's Moon.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Listing of essential considerations for the sustainable exploration and utilization of Earth's Moon. Because of limited useful Lunar orbits compared to Earth’s orbits, exploration could soon lead to satellite congestion and space debris around the Moon. Anticipated to increase in the upcoming decade, there are already over 200 tons of defunct spacecraft and mission-associated items on the Moon. Moon's shadowed regions need protection to preserve potential organic molecules. Both biological and non-biological contamination, including waste from humans and machines on limited ice deposits, have been considered. New regulation for responsible practices on Lunar exploration is needed.
