Plan to excavate the Moon for clean engergy gas

Picture MUST credit: Interlune
A full-scale prototype of an excavator designed to dig for a rare gas on the Moon that would be able to provide clean energy has been unveiled.
US company Interlune said the machine ingest 100 metric tons of lunar soil, known as regolith, per hour and return it to the surface in a continuous motion.
There is tremendous demand for helium-3 across several industries, including national security, quantum computing, medical imaging, and fusion energy.
It is also a potential clean energy source for nuclear fusion, offering benefits like low-carbon emissions and no dangerous waste products.
While rare on Earth it is abundant on the Moon.
Excavated regolith would be heated to a specific temperature to release the helium-3, and separate the gas from the soil.
Interlune and industrial equipment manufacturer Vermeer Corporation, also USA based, combined to develop the excavator.
The companies will continue to explore other novel equipment and technology for use in space and on Earth.
The excavator would operate continuously on the Moon and is designed to reduce tractive force, power consumption, and dust compared to traditional trench-digging techniques.
Interlune and Vermeer built the full-size prototype after successfully developing and testing a sub-scale version in 2024.

A gold Omega watch presented to the first man to step onto the Moon, Neil Armstrong, has sold for a record breaking $2.125 million USD / €1.876 million euros
The 18K gold 'Tribute to Astronauts' Speedmaster Pro was presented to Armstrong in November 1969.
That was four months after he stepped out of the lunar module of the Apollo 11 mission on July 20 and spoke the words: “ A small step for man, a giant leap for mankind.”
His watch is now the most expensive Speedmaster in history after dozens of online bids. The sale ended on. April 17.
Half of the hammer price from this historic auction will be donated to charities selected by Neil's son, Mark Armstrong.
He said "This watch, which my father liked to wear on special occasions, symbolises one of the most remarkable achievements in the history of mankind.”
The watch was presented to Armstrong, who died aged 82 in 2012, at a special gala dinner in Houston.
Omega initially created 26 of the gold commemorative watches—known as the ‘Tribute to Astronauts’ watch—to present to NASA astronauts alive and deceased.

A tower designed to harvest solar power for future human bases on the Moon has been unveiled.
UK architecture company Foster + Partners , which is working with US space agency NASA, says several would be erected at the south pole of the Earth satellite.
The company has previously designed habitation pods for astronauts working on the surface of both the Moon and Mars.
The 50 metre tall structure called the Lunar Tower would have two arms which unfold and spread out before deploying pants on solar panels.
Foster + Partners is working with US 3D printing tech company Branch Technology which already makes customised building skins and interiors.
Rather than transport, at great expense, building materials to the lunar surface, the plan is to use 3D printing and the lunar soil, known as regolith to build structures.
