Building Villages On The Moon

Professor Johann-Dietrich Woerner new head of the European Space Agency (ESA), has recently announced plans to build villages on the Moon for scientific research. He has been in his new job as Director General of the European Space Agency (Esa) for a week. In charge of a €4.4 billion annual budget, the former Chair of the German space agency is ultimately responsible for everything at Esa. Europe’s new observation, weather, communication and navigation satellites; astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS); missions to Mars, Mercury and Jupiter; and a sleepy lander on a duck-shaped comet all come under his remit.
