If we ever end up with a permanent base on the moon then it may be more feasible but at the moment I just don't see it

I'm putting it in the same category as Solar Roads and Hyperloop TBH...  ;)
But I once put broadband over copper wire in that category  redface:

 lol: lol: lol:
I also (and I was Technical Director at the time) told the company there would never be HD video on LCD screens or indeed large LCD screens - and guess what then happened  redface: redface: redface:

(I did do some good stuff, honest)
Well, whatever, nevermind

That's the trouble with predicting the future; nothing going to turn out as expected. As an avid reader of science fiction I can see that broad stroke guesses may point the way but getting the details right, never.
