The moon is a sensible place, much lower energy requirements than dumping to the sun and no orbit decay trouble. If only launch vehicles were more reliable.
Obviously need that Rope Ladder to The Moon asap.

Last estimate i saw put the electricity cost just over half the proposed rate being paid for Hinckley point output.
Would 20 SMRs distributed around uk get us through the crisis and make electric cars and heat pumps viable?
£13k mentioned this morning as the cost of a heat pump install, my oil boiler cost £700; even with £5k from your donations that won't make the greenwash convincing.
