With the name of HALOhe first module of the moon space station has been progressing more and more in its construction, in a significant advance for science and technology, since it is the first time that spaces are designed to house people in lunar territory, as part of humans’ attempts to understand this star in depth and, eventually, consider the possibility of creating homes on it.
After all, even NASA itself has revealed details about its plans to build homes on the Moon, so it is not surprising that these first steps to conquer the lunar territory They could be the beginning of an ambitious crusade to extend human life beyond planet Earth, which, of course, is not without controversy, since defenders of the care of the ecosystem denounce that little attention and money is dedicated to finding solutions. for the planet we inhabit, versus the large projects that have the purpose of discovering and inhabiting other stars.
However, the facts indicate that the Moon It could be the new home for a few who can afford to live far from home, both in economic terms and in terms of survival, beyond simple space tourism, but as a long-term way of life. And for those who are interested in it, the construction of this first module of the moon space station represents a fundamental step.

HALO is the name that the logistics and habitability outpost of the Gateway space station. This will be one of the four modules in which astronauts They will live, do science, and prepare for missions in the lunar surface to better understand this star, a mission that has been part of human curiosity for hundreds of years and that has now been able to progress significantly with advances in technology, allowing us to discover even less accessible spaces on this planet. starlike its dark side, which has recently been studied by a mission of the Chinese Chang’e-6 probe, which spent two days collecting rocks and dust with a mechanical arm and a drill, to later land with the samples at the end of June of this year and thus, allow us to learn more about this face so mysterious of the Moon.
