whats the point of a moonbase? just so astronauts can chill out and play with rocks and swim in moon water?

What's the point you say?

It's to show the rest of the world what the USA is capable of,to let everyone know,not to fuck with them,fear them and meet their demands.

The NASA program is the biggest waste of money,it's proven itself that over & over again.

^
controlling the moon gives a major advantage over world domination because the moon makes a great battle station.

^^^ hahahah... well, remember why the states landed on the moon. besides exploration, the soviets had alredy landed/crashed a craft (luna 2 i think) and had started the whole space race off with sputnik. middle of the cold war, of course the states had to flex its muscles.

^ by sending a man to the moon,it sends a clear message to the rest of the world of what the US can do and what else they are aslo capable of doing.

You ever heard of Hitler's "dooms day device"?

How closely is the water content to that on Earth? They might have the same origin but it's been few billions of years it might not be compatible to what we need? I'm sure we can purify it but still
