“A space drill developed by a firm based in Sudbury, Ontario, could be boring for water on the moon in less than five years — if everything goes according to plan.  It would also signal the start of the space mining industry. Deltion Innovations Ltd. has announced it’s been awarded a contract by the Canadian Space Agency to advance the design of its “DESTIN” drill and then test it in a moon-like environment on Earth. Deltion spokesman Dale Boucher says the tests are aimed at advancing technology so the space drill would be ready for a lunar prospector mission in 2018.”

The first thing we ever sent out to space to land somewhere else were men.  Scouts if you will.  The second,machinery.  Reminds me of Jamestown.  It’s neat in a sci-fi kind of way but at the same time,we are just exporting our hierarchical sh**ty way of life to another rock somewhere else and tome thats not how its suppose to be.  New planet, new rules.  New life. Or is it just me who thinks that way?
