Lunar construction...Moon Bricks

Interesting approach to making lunar bricks for construction material...

I am sure we could do something similar on Mars, although compressed bricks might be a better option.

Re: Lunar construction...Moon Bricks

CNSA has just confirmed good ascent stage-orbiter docking in lunar orbit

The latest Chang'e mission

I am not sure about having a manned base on the Moon, even with robots it could be a distraction and difficult goal

We are not fully sure what Mars is made of but from Lunar samples from a number of different nations we know the Moon has huge lack of Carbon, Hydrogen, chemical compound like Methane, Water, Nitrogen, Potassium, Iron, Chromium, Phosphorus, Sulphur, Chlorine and other chemicals important to sustain the hunman base or life or any kind of village or civilization.

completely different worlds perhaps
