Scientific paper
Lunar mission experience derived from the Apollo program allows confident planning to be undertaken in the near term with a view to the establishment of a lunar base around the turn of the century. Attention is presently given to major aspects of such an undertaking that directly bear on the comparative risks of a manned mission to Mars. These involve experience-accumulation in LEO for the longer Mars mission, the development of mining technologies and closed cycle life-support systems required for operations independent of terrestrial supplies, and testbed experimentation for human survival in microgravity environments.
