Astronauts and other explorers will need to consider the following challenges to overcome to live on the Lunar:
- Resources: Astronauts will be required to access oxygen, water, and other life-sustaining resources. They can gather local assets on the lunar's surface and transform them into breathable air, drinking water, and more.
- Health risks: The lunar's harsh environment can pose significant health risks to astronauts. These risks include extreme temperatures, radiation, and the lack of an atmosphere or magnetic field
- Lunar dust: The fine, abrasive particles of lunar dust can damage spacesuits, clog filters and mechanical systems, and pose health risks if inhaled
- Thermal cycling: Thermal cycling can cause materials to expand and contract, leading to fatigue and failure over time
- Packing: Astronauts will necessitate to consider their basic needs for food, shelter, water, and air. They will also be limited in what they can carry due to the moon's lower gravity.
- Communication: A radio can allow astronauts to talk with the Lunar Outpost and call for help
