On the moon by 2020, planned the construction of plants for extraction of resources

Mankind has not yet been able to engage in extra-terrestrial civilizations, the first plan to produce on the moon, because there are relatively affordable and very rich reserves of water ice.
Such conclusion was a big part of scientists and engineers who are entrusted with and defining the place of extraction of extraterrestrial deposits.
In addition to satellite, scientists have considered as a variant of the asteroids and Mars, but thanks to the proximity of the Moon and large reserves of resources such as water, ammonia and methane.
Chief Technician robotics firm Penguin Automated Systems Greg Biden believes that the moon is the obvious choice. In his view, the getters of lunar resources, and pioneers in this business, to a greater extent will private firms, as it can be very lucrative, though, and not exclude state aid.
Recent discoveries have shown that the moon are significant reserves of water. Cold craters, which are likely to accumulate water billions of years old, have a relatively clean water, and extract it to specialists in the cellar.
The value of water not only in what may in the future to support the existence of the settlers of the Moon, but it can be decomposed into oxygen and hydrogen - natural components. These elements can be key components of the fuel. Just imagine what the lunar water could produce rocket fuel, which is subsequently sold at gas stations built on the lower orbit of the planet Earth. This invention will allow satellites and spacecraft to carry out refueling directly in space.
According to the scientific community and the private sector the project will carry out a revolution in space by mankind. From an economic point of view of delivery of fuel from the Moon will be very advantageous, since the lunar gravity and Earth have a difference of six times in favor of the moon, but it significantly reduce the cost of the rocket launch.
After hearing the information about the extraction of water on the moon with the aim of further profitable, some companies are beginning to make plans. Shackleton Energy Company founder Bill Stone says that plans to sell missile fuel directly in orbit by 2020.
Plans, of course, grandiose, and seem to be unrealistic, but almost all of the technology needed to begin operations on the Moon for the extraction of resources, ready and waiting their turn. A robotic miners can operate from Earth.
Due to the closeness to the earth connection between machines and humans can be done almost instantly. The delay will be negligible - 1-2sekundy.
When space exploration will be apparent to many businessmen will be clear what earnings they can get, and space will be more accessible to humanity.
