Re: Malapert mountain

I'm not sure a commercial incentive would exist to go to Malapert without any support from space governmental organizations.

You mean now, or after there was found to be "minable" deposits of water?

At the moment I'm pretty sure that the risks are too high for there to be a any normal commerical incentive- meaning no one has that much interest in going to the Moon compared to other ways of making money- projects which might mean more glory than money might happen (this would have the tendency to limit the project to being fairly small).
As I have said many times, I think there is a national interest (or incentive) to determine if there is minable water at lunar poles.
