The significance of this article is that for a long time people are studying the moon and now are looking for preserving it.

What I learned from this article is that life on thmoon is possible.

 What I liked about this article is how all of the facts were accurate and it also answered most of my questions.

What I did not like about it is that the author didn’t include all of the cons and risks us humans can be taking for this task.

Who should read this article is astronomers because this will get them interested and it can effect the people studying this in a good way.

This article reminds me of:

(text-to-self) when I always wished to step foot on the moon.

 (text-to-text) the book stinkers return which is about an alien from the moon.

(text-to-world) of all the people studying and all of my fiends who plan on studying this when they grow up.
