  1. We should consider the possibility of mobilizing the Boring company and its signature machines, Godot, etc., to create a massive ‘international’ burrow system for the subterranean infrastructure and possible shelter for any amounts of humanity that may need it in the coming decades and centuries. What would the half-million person burrow look like – say a few storeys deep? The Lunar Underground 2100: the circulation, services, refuge, and control/ admin for our first Outpost exo-GEO.

      • Luna-environmentalists would never let us develop these significant natural features – the Yosemite of Marius Hills.
