    Of all the things to kick-start industry on another planet, isn’t a nuclear fucking plant the most complex?

      Yes but also no, might be significantly easier to cool for instance and no environmental concerns.

      I got downvoted by people without critical thinking skills. A plant on the moon isn’t in space, it’s on the moon, a large cold rock, I don’t understand why no one charitably understood you can dissipate heat into the actual moon which is not warm and quite cold.

        It is notoriously hard to cool things in space. There’s no water or air to dump the heat.

          Can you elaborate more? I’m under the impression space is very cold, and the heat would get sucked out like I wish I was, at least once before I eat shit.

            the cold is helpful but moving the heat, but is the hard thing getting it away from the space craft. Since there is no atmosphere to take away your heat it just kinda sits there. If it is getting the suns rays it can be even more difficult. so basically it is quite hard.

            Space is cold and not dense. Heat needs to move from a high energy medium to a low energy medium to be dissipated. Since there isn’t any matter for the thermal energy to be transferred to, cooling in space is actually quite difficult.

            You need to put the heat somewhere. In the vacuum, heat can only transfer by radiation, which is much less efficient.

          Bro you have hundreds of tons of cold stone on the moon. I didn’t say space.

              That’s on you if you want to dismiss my insights on the basis of the language I use to express ideas. Pretty surface level evaluation tbh, bruh.

                I dismissed your idea because it’s bad. I decided to not waste my time explaining on the basis of the language you use.

                The fact that I have to clarify this confirms I made the right decision.

                  What a pompous position to take. I sure hope you don’t make important decisions anywhere.
