Space/Science » in reply to Space leaders work to replace lunar base with manned asteroid missions

The Moon, yes, but perhaps no moonbase

Arguments brought up earlier.

The Moon is a place to move on, to explore (the poles) but not necessarily to stay on.
The Moon is close enough to Earth to give mankind the perspective it needs to sense its fragility.

I wonder what is an acceptable ratio for manned exploration:

7 days back and forth with 2 weeks on the Moon surface.

Or

1 year back and forth with 1 week on the asteroid surface.
