Because on the Moon there are few places where water is potentially located at the south pole. And these are great places because we have craters there, where some of these craters are practically always shielded from sunlight, so for billions of years there have actually been ice deposits. It may seem strange, what kind of raw material ice is, but ice in space is, one might say, the most valuable raw material. We have oxygen there, we have hydrogen there, because it is frozen water, so by extracting this ice we can have fuel, we can have oxygen for breathing, we can have water, which is also needed for everything, no matter how you look at it. So this is a very important place on the Moon, and in such places, where on one side we have this ice in the depths of the crater, and on the other side, on the top, on the edges of this crater, we have a place where for 90% of the time, sometimes even 100% of the time, we have sunlight. well, we can install a base and...
