can a propuplsion module move the space station to lunar orbit?<br /><br />I know, you need fuel, but I don't mean it has to get there overnight either, just take <br />your time and enjoy the trip, and would One ISS fuel module be enough? (thats one <br />shuttle payload worth of fuel, or would you need 2 or 3?)<br />the ISS is already a space base, but it needs a propulsion module, then a lunar module<br />shuttles the people to the moon and back to the station. we need to be inventing modules<br />for the ISS left and right. that was its primary design: MODULES MODULES and more MODULES.<br />I know it costs money, but a moon base in my opinion costs more, so you probably need to wait a couple decades longer for a moon base, if pricing in the future will allow. Its got to be cheaper to design award winning modules than to build entirely new living quarters that haven't been proved and tested yet, <br />and we already have the living qusrters, why not make the most of what we got?<br />Basically move the ISS to <font color="yellow">lunar orbit</font>nd you immediately have a self proven reliable, and mobile lunar base. We would then equip the next modules with lunar projects.<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
