re: Not for long

If we are indeed going back to the Moon then as far as I'm concerned they need to open the doors and let more people look at them. A handful should be selected for archiving in the Smithsonian, with the rest parceled out to Lunar studies programs across the U.S. (and only the U.S. - make other folks come here to study them) for use by promising students seeking to unlock their secrets and treasures.

Oh wait, we don't really have any Lunar studies programs (I think there's one college here in Texas that offers a Minor). That might be an issue in the years ahead. It would probably be a good idea for a few strategic-thinking universities to focus a bit on Lunar studies, and Martian studies. (Yes, I'll take a major in ME and a minor in areology, please).
