but seriously, it could be used as a manufacturing and industrial hub for deep space operations like asteroid mining.
think about it like this. if we can manufacture things on the moon we can launch things for almost nothing into both earth orbit and the outer solar system due to how the orbital mechanics work.
this means we can build a million probes and send them all over the solar system, manufacture generation ships, permanent self sustaining space based habitats.
a new era of expansion, exploration, and discovery.
