Remember that the LSE-CM/ISS comes with a rather nifty tether dipole
element, thereby we've got terawatts of energy to burn.


Not near the Moon, you don't. The solar wind isn't that strong, nor is the
magnetic field of the Earth that far out.

radiation, it's not actually all that hot and never once a speck of
anything arriving via 30+km/s, thereby offering folks just another EVA


Those craters on the Moon must have been made by the *last* attempt to
colonize it then? Not by any old pesky falling objects...
