Humans will soon be able to mine on the Moon. But should we? 4 questions to consider

"By the end of this decade, nations and private companies may well be mining
the surface of the Moon.

But as space becomes accessible to more nations and corporations, we need to
stop and ask ourselves what commercial activities we want to allow, including
on the Moon.

Now is the time to create the rules and regulations that will protect
humanity’s shared future in space and ensure the Moon remains a symbol and
inspiration for generations to come."
