Well it ain't no Von Neuman Probe.

I've sometimes wondered how we would react, or what we could possibly do, if
a Von Neuman Probe came along and began converting our moon into a bunch
more Von Neuman Probes. Seems like there ought to be a SF story in there.

We should ask, critically and with appeal to the numbers, whether the
best site for a growing advancing industrial society is Earth, the
Moon, Mars, some other planet, or somewhere else entirely.
Surprisingly, the answer will be inescapable - the best site is
"somewhere else entirely."
