nations flock to the cratered south pole and far side of the moon, where critical resources such as water could be mined.

Is capitalism so prevalent, we’re running out of ocean already?

    They aren’t hoping to bring water back to earth. One of the biggest limiters to exploring other planets is getting the resources we need to travel and survive off of Earth. It’s way easier to get off the moon, so moon bases mining water to drink, farm, and make fuel out of are a logical move.
