Letter: One big step back to our distant past

Published 31 July 2024

From David Hulme, Stockport, Greater Manchester, UK

Some things don’t change. Our ancient ancestors valued caves as a haven from the weather and wild animals. Now, we are considering using caverns on the moon as protection from space “weather”. Perhaps we should think about installing a copy of the Lascaux cave paintings in the first lunar cavern we use for habitation (20 July, p 13).
