  • Helium-3 could be converted into energy, potentially generating electricity on Earth for approximately 40,000 years.
• Future of Lunar Exploration:
  • The Moon is envisioned as a future powerhouse and launch station for space exploration.
  • There is a possibility of human habitation on the Moon as exploration progresses, especially in the polar regions.
• Geopolitical Considerations:
  • There is an existing treaty that prohibits territorial claims in outer space and Antarctica, which is set to expire around 2032 or 2034.
  • Once the treaty expires, countries may begin to claim parts of the Moon, particularly the south pole region where India aims to establish a presence for potential mining rights.
