The flag is still there. It is right next to the plaque that says something about "Human beings from the planet Earth came on yadda yadda date in peace" and a set of reflectors that we use to bounce lasers off of for measurements and timekeeping and such (I swear...saw a show about it).

As for the colonies, we need them because the race is on for the next big fuel source...helium 3...which is ultrarare on Earth but in abundance on the moon and is an extremely efficient fuel.

Only problem is the dust. The lunar dust is so thick from the millions of years of impacts and no atmosphere that it literally grind the gears of machinery to a halt...and it is everywhere. We have to figure out what to do about that, first.

Cool, it's good to know the flag is there... if martians decide to invade the moon, they'll see that little plaque and go "aw crap, they called it!"

I didn't know about lunar dust tho, GWH, thanks for sharing that

Here's a little to add about the flag, China is suppose to be going to the moon, and sense they annouced it, We have been planning to go back as well....The kicker here is...Many people think we never landed and if China get's there before we do then it's going to blow up in the USA's face cause there is no flag there really.... :whistle:
