A new policy paper argues that a future NASA base on the moon should include a specialized biocontainment facility designed to keep Earth safe from any potentially hazardous biological material brought back from space. The proposal comes as scientists and space agencies prepare for more ambitious missions that could return samples from the moon, Mars, and other destinations across the solar system. “Humanity is entering a new era of space exploration, but our planetary protection strategies have not kept pace with the risks associated with returning extraterrestrial samples to Earth,” said paper co-author Frederick I. Moxley, Director of Strategic Threat…

Running a facility deep beneath Earth’s surface requires constant control of two essential elements: air and water. Workers in underground tunnels and shafts depend on reliable ventilation to survive and work safely. At the same time, groundwater and rainwater that seep underground must be collected and pumped back to the surface. That challenge is familiar at large mining operations, where specialized teams manage ventilation and water systems. It is also a critical part of operating the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF), a massive underground science laboratory in South Dakota. Although mining no longer takes place there, mining engineers remain responsible…
