Lunar Noah's Ark

Ralph and Alice Kramden    (Fair Use)

In Genesis, Chapters 6 through 9, God not only spared Noah and his family, but also two members of each animal type. These survivors would begin to repopulate Earth after the Great Flood receded.

Today’s disasters tend to be regional, but what if they weren’t? What if a nuclear holocaust were to actually occur? Would any traces of life as we know it endure? 

While asking themselves such questions, scientists came up with a 21st-century solution. Why not create a moon-based Noah’s Ark? Rather than squeeze giraffes and elephants into a module, why not just ship their “cryogenically frozen reproductive cells” over to our lunar neighbor? 

Storage would then occur within a solar- powered compound, and the little darlings would be tended to by “robotic lab techs.” Sounds like a plan. “To the moon, Alice!”
