Wings aren't much use with zero atmosphere. You'd need some kind of a jetpack, or a pressurised indoor arena to fly in.

- A2017U1 8y agoThe idea is it being in an enclosed livable area. Outside with propulsion would be actually quite dangerous in comparison.
- marssaxman 8y ago> Outside with propulsion would be actually quite dangerous in comparison. Ooh, really? Well, that sounds interesting; just how dangerous would you say it is, compared to motorcycling, or free-climbing?
- A2017U1 8y agoThis is funny to think about, I'm no expert but probably far more dangerous unless your moon propulsion is dramatically restricted. You need a fullbody suit to maintain it's integrity, so taking even a minor spill is not a good idea. There's no terminal velocity either so if you go up a reasonable amount and lose power you'd make a visible crater. You just keep speeding up until reaching the moon's escape velocity (2.4km/s)
