Is there a need to protect sites on the Moon?
Seems to me that anybody with the grit to get back there, gets to do what they want
I was thinking about this recently. The Apollo astronauts left a lot of things behind and my own perspective is that the Apollo lunar landing sites should somehow be protected in a way that is similar to how UNESCO World Heritage Sites are protected.
