The Value of the Moon

For a longest time, the moon as the nearest celestial body to human beings, appears every 24 hours on top of our head punctually.
It become the most valuable planet for the Earth.
Energy Value: Helium 3 nuclear power generation 
More than 1 million tons of helium-3 minerals have been identified on the lunar surface soil. This mineral is the only source of nuclear fusion power that won't produce radiation, and it also set the foundation for the Moon to become an Earth Energy Server
Mineral Value: Ilmenite, Gold Mine
The lunar surface soil contains large amounts of ilmenite, aluminum and gold, which could be self sufficient for the moon to become an industrial base for building spaceships.

Military Value: the indefensible space-based weapon system
The moon based reconnaissance and attack is able to appear above anywhere on earth within 12 hours. Such a system could offer a whole new solution in global anti-terrorism events.
​Traffic Value: the spacecraft from the Moon to Mars is launched by ejection only
Launching spacecraft on earth would have to overcome gravity and air friction. Since the moon's gravity is only 1/6 of the earth's moon, it takes only a sixth of the speed to get into orbit, and since the moon's surface is vacuous, there is no air resistance, so the amount of fuel needed to launch a spacecraft on the moon is only 1/20 of that on earth. And the recovery spacecraft don't have to worry about getting into the atmosphere and burning up as it does on earth. The moon is the best gateway to outer space.
Communication Value: low gravity wave, no atmosphere, Moon serves as a better communication station for the whole universe
Unlike the manmade green land and FAST interstellar observation system on earth, the moon craters can be used directly for interstellar communication system without being affected by atmosphere, thus it provides the basis for a future communications relay on Mars and earth. And its extremely minimum gravitational waves would provide much better observation quality.

Cost for Transporting to the Moon Dropped Fast

Since the Apollo Program in 1967, humans have not planned to land on the moon again. The reason is very simple--the moon landing is too expensive. However, with the highly marketized competition of space technology, the cost of sending materials to the moon is plummeting. And at least more than ten institutions around the world can send supplies to the space station or the moon. This area is no longer a challenge.
The top 10 aerospace companies: SpaceX, blue origin, Virgin Galaxy, Boeing, Lockheed, China Space, Russian Rocket Alliance... When we look at these ten aerospace technologies, the ark of the great voyages of man into the moon is ready.
Nowadays the cost of transporting each Kilogram of goods to the moon is $5,000. It means that a 500kg capsule will cost only $2.5m, which is barely the cost of an apartment in Shanghai. This opens up unprecedented opportunities for space habitation.

The Challenge of Building on the Moon

Even if we can reach the moon, the moon environment is still very rough.
The near-vacuum environment makes any earth-building technology unsustainable on the moon due to lack of oxygen.
We will face a series of major environmental challenges.

Vacuum environment
The atmospheric pressure of the moon is only 1% of the earth's atmosphere, so we need to make sure only the full maintenance of the air being achieved can we live in a vacuum.

Extreme temperature
Since the moon does not have the heat capacity of the atmosphere and water, the temperature of 12cm above the lunar surface goes from 150C to minus 250C in a day. The moon's houses would be required to balance the temperature difference between day and night by using the greenhouse effect.
Cosmic ray radiation and micrometeorites
On the earth, most of the meteorites get burned off by the earth's thick atmosphere, the magnetic field keeps most of the cosmic rays away. On the moon, houses will always face the impact of bullet-like small meteorites and cosmic rays. The house is therefore required to have extremely high levels of strength and radiation resistance.
Oxygen generation
It is a crucial question how to continue to produce the oxygen that humans need on the moon.

Food
Human metabolism requires constant food intake. While there is no organic matters on the moon. We need a new food production mechanism to ensure food supply.

Energy production
Although there is a lot of helium 3 on the moon, early moon towns may not have the time and capacity to support a fusion reactor. We will need an energy solution.
Water production
70% of the human body is made of water, and if there is a shortage of water, the body will quickly collapse. How to make and recycle the available water on the moon is also essential to the normal functioning of the human life.

Finally, the team realized the feasible integrated solution of lunar base.Some of the results are also included in the architecture department library at Cambridge university. Another part was published in the Geneva conference of PLEA2007. Then the founding members of the Lunarizon team were involved in the development and operation of the world's first zero-carbon village, Bedzed. Subsequently, we will host the construction of the zero carbon pavilion of the world expo, and lead zero-carbon city planning and core building construction in many regions around the world. Through decades of effort we have been able to build and operate self-sufficient autonomous towns on earth.
we have set up a joint research and development center at Tongji university in China in 2017 and work with MIT to study the next generation of lunar housing technology.

Core Technologies for Building Moon Habitat

Because the moon's environmental requirements are so different from those of the earth's, it requires a set of completely different technical logic to make a house.
Materials Technology It is hard to imagine building a moon house with earth's construction technology and sending hundreds of tons of steel glass to the moon through a rocket.So we invented a new material and a building process.It is a new breakthrough in construction industry and composite material industry to use balloon  as moulds and adopt rapid prototyping technology to build houses.
  • Lunarizon has the world's top super fiber, which can achieve unprecedented composite material performance. It can be packaged as a soft package of 1mx1mx3m in transit.
  • Lunarizon's unique radiation curing technology enables the superelectrode fiber to be cured within 40 minutes, and then more than 25 times the strength of the steel
  • A 400m3 house weighs 500kg. Therefore, minimal transport resistance , transport weight and unprecedented low cost transportation can be achieved. The volume of the transport unit is 1mx1mx3m.
Construction Technology
Building technology is more critical than material technology. It is impossible to rely on astronauts to build a future moon house.
  • Air forming Lunarizon holds the global patent for the air forming technology, through the small pressure gas to achieve the design of the entire building.
  • Deformation of airtight space The gas tight door is used in the container and operation stage in the transportation stage.
Infrastructure Technology
Another key point to survive on the moon is to have infrastructure technology from the beginning.
  • Energy infrastructure: Lunarizon will provide unprecedented sky-base energy infrastructure technology. Achieve adequate power supply.
  • Water - sewage circulation: Lunarizon's water - sewage cycle can be used to recycle sewage through microbial degradation to grade a water quality for people to use efficiently.
  • Oxygen - food cycle: The oxygen - food cycle that Lunarizon builds can achieve the basic supply of food and the continuous production of oxygen and the deactivation of carbon dioxide. Realize unprecedented habitat environment optimization.​

We have made a sample of the moon house

Lunarizon's core members have been practicing in the field since 2005 and are used in actual building practices.
We have built a pneumatic super - pole fiber factory in China, specializing in building materials based on gas - forming.

It's time to build on the moon.

Bigelow know, if they don't get there first, Lunarizon will.

Competitor Analysis 

Two of the world's best-known institutions for lunar housing are Bigelow and Lunarizon.

Bigelow was founded in 1999 by the aging owner of the Las Vegas motel, Mr. Bigelow, and finally put a 10-cubic meter of flexible bags under NASA's license to the international space station in 2016.

​Lunarizon, however, has a much larger target, and we will use the high-strength cabin of future technology buildings and the volume will be well over 400 cubic meters. Use the best technology to achieve a lot of lunar small town construction.

In addition, there are a number of differences between lunarizon and bigelow.
