It‘s our neighbour
It’s visible
Technically feasible and affordable
Stepwise approach – near term relevance
There is a DemandMoon provides a natural platform for Science (Astronomy/Astrophysics, Geology/ Geophysics/Geochemistry, Physics of the Sun and Life Science) and may build a Cornerstone within Mission to Mars
Visible Symbol of European capabilities – lighthouse projectChances for European leadership in science and technology and autonomous access to Space based infrastructurePerspective and motivation of young people and pacemaker for European science and technology
Why to Moon first?

The Scientific Demand
– Lunar far side is permanently free of radio interferences from Earth (quiet
zone)
– During the 2 weeks of Lunar night avoidance of distracting radiations from the
Sun.
The Mission
– Low frequency radio telescope
– Implemented as an array of antennas
– Maintenance and upgrade is possible
– Stepwise extension

Long Term Lunar Presence (2018 an beyond)EUROPEAN LUNAR OBSERVATORY (A)tele-operated astronomical observatory, temporarily
manned
– Main requirements (for astronomical research)· No RF interferences· Low intensity ionosphere· No atmosphere, no orbital debris
– Main tasks· Low frequency radio astronomy· Infrared astronomy· UV astronomy· Planetary defence (focus on detection)· Exploration (physics of the sun, geology, etc.)

If we look to the life cycle of our products her at EADS ST, one detect very soon, that our products show a life cycle of 30 – 40 years or more.
So, if we start with development of new products, we have to think about their application and their markets in 30 or 40years from now.
For this reason we established a working group at EADS ST dealing with long term Perspectives of Space Travel.
In this context we are analysing different scenarios – from Space Tourism untilExploration Missions – always targeted to identify potential applications for Space Infrastructure beyond the classic application of telecommuication or micro gravityResearch.
This is why we look for a close relationship to potential users from very early onwards.And this is why we invited you to this workshop to evaluate together with you the scientific potentails of lunar infrastructures
The purpose of this presentation is to give a global overview our idea of future spaceInrastructure as plattform for scientific purpose
As starting point for the discussion of: What is really needed?
But if we talk about moon, we also have to consider the Space exploration environment, in which the case for moon is to be discussed
