.Newt Gingrich wants to build a colony on the moon. Unfortunately for him it won't happen. He continues to defend his dream of a new colony, but doesn't realize how much it would cost to attain it. To defend it he stated that the price wouldn't matter because of the tourist attraction. The cost to explore space was projected to cost 100 billion dollars through 2020. NASA was going to charge 300 billion dollars anyways.Mike gold said that It would be a mistake to laugh at Gingrich and discount the concept of a Lunar Base.He also said that people mocked Columbus before he found the new world.
