Business idea
Mine or separate out lunar resources required to create a viable rocket fuel for use around Earth-Moon system and deep space. Oxygen is readily available. Buy it from Lox manufacturer[1]. Aluminum is readily available. Buy it from manufacturer or salvage dealer or create our own refining plant.
Mix the two into a fuel for shipping to customer site or into a solid form of rocket booster suitable for getting off the lunar surface or both.
Market
- Any mass, such as lox, which needs to be delivered to space from lunar surface.
- Short suborbital lunar hopping. Much faster than Rovers or Freight Trucks.
- Mars resupply missions. Need large delta V to Holman to Mars or Aldrin Cyclers.
