So with the new vision details coming forward, has anything been said about the equipment that will be sent and tested? I figure that they will want to create equipment that will function on both the Moon and on Mars with minor adjustments made.<br /><br />I can think of a few things off the top of my head, but wondered if a tentative list had been proposed. Things like:<br /><br />Astronaut transport ground vehicles<br />Water generator from local materials<br />Oxygen generator from local materials<br />Inflatable habitats and moorings<br />New data transmission equipment<br />Radiation shielding<br /><br /><br />Another question - since the whole Moon is in play, I take it we will explore more of the poles. What about the interference-dark side of the Moon? Facing away from Earth at all times, it must be shielded from alot of the noise we generate.<br /><br />
