to Railroading on the Moon and Mars
Here is a book that discusses Railroads on the Moon as an ideal way to
expand globally on the Moon, starting from an outpost at the Moon's
South Pole.
The Moon: Resources, Future Development, and Settlement
by David Schrunk, Burton Sharpe, Bonnie Cooper, and Madhu Thangavelu
2007, Paperback, Available from Amazon
Be sure to get the 2nd edition. The first edition's title ends with
"and Colonization." You want the one whose title ends with "and
Settlement."
The book is the most comprehensive look yet at how we could develop
the Moon's resources and establish a real civilian frontier, with
railroads being the driving infrastructure.
I recommend it highly
