the first nation that establishes a foothold on the moon makes everybodys nukes irrelevant.
it's not Star Wars actually
it's The Moon is a Harsh Mistress

the first powerful group who gets robots, water and decent sized solar power on the moon can BOMB THE FUCK out of any place on earth at any time.
they just mine a bunch of 10ft basalt boulders, put thrusters on them and if anyone doesnt do what they want, their country is over.

this is THE END of the nuclear mutually assured destruction peace that has lasted for 70yrs btw
the world order completely changes and everybody knows it.

its a race to the moon people.
