Russia is looking to Industrialize the Moon

Russia is ready to industrialize the Moon according to the head of the Russian space company RKK Energia, Nikolai Sevastianov. He says "it is time to do this given the limits to natural reserves on Earth and the pace of civilization's progress. Nor can we dismiss the idea of outsourcing harmful industries into space."

They believe they can begin setting up the moon for industry with the Soyuz and move on to a Kliper/Parom transport system RKK Energia will develop.
