     The problem of the moon being in darkness for 2 out of four weeks (and 
thus unable to use solar power) could (I think) be solved by using a large
solar power gathering satlleite orbiting in such a way that it could send
power down to the base (either simply as reflected light or by using solar
cells and beaming it down as microwaves.) The biggest problem with this is
that I don't know if there is such a location. Any body know?
