How much energy does it take to get stuff from the earth to the moon though? Is it that much less than leaving earths gravity all together?

- skgoa 9y agoThe point would be that the stuff we would use to explore/colonize the solar system would be made on the Moon with a relatively low investment in stuff having to be send there to set up the base and mining/production process. Ideally only humans themselves and a few personal items would be send up from Earth, with everything else having been produced in orbit.
