THE HAWAII MOON DECLARATION

The Moon is currently the focus of an international program of
scientific
investigation. Current missions underway or planned will lead to the
future use
of the Moon for science and commercial development, thereby
multiplying
opportunities for humanity in space and on Earth. We need the Moon
for many
reasons: to use its resources of materials and energy to provide for
our future
needs in space and on Earth, to establish a second reservoir of
human culture in
the event of a terrestrial catastrophe, and to study and understand
the
universe. The next step in human exploration beyond low Earth orbit
logically is
to the Moon, our closest celestial neighbor in the Solar System.

Oops, maybe the Zetas where not of that wrong after all, in regard
with the catastrophe!
