Being able to mine water on the moon could prove valuable for future space missions. Researchers recently claimed to have found evidence that water ice exists on the moon. This could be recycled inside a lunar habitat and used for drinking and growing plants for any future inhabitants. During that time, the satellite can’t do its job, so it doesn’t make any money. The Moon is also rich in natural resources.
