Swedes to Colonize the Moon

We always knew the Swedes were a shifty bunch – softening hearts worldwide with a pleasing blend of inoffensive europop, cheap yet effortlessly stylish flat-pack furniture, Go-4-The-Gold NHL players and fun-loving, pnemuatic blonde fillies – but now the horrible truth can now be revealed: they’re planning to colonise the Moon thereby ensuring their own survival as the Earth’s resources dwindle and lesser nations are returned to a primitive Stone-Age state enslaved to Sweden’s galactic ambitions.

The colony aims to be self-sustaining in its requirements for sustenance, but it will nevertheless function in symbiosis with Earth. As a result, trade between the lunar colony and Earth will flourish, with the lunar colony contributing towards the development of research and scientific activities, such as, for example, the supply of alternative energy based on advancements in Helium3 fusion power, and provision of structural materials for spacecraft and satellites in earth orbit as well as deep space. At this time of potential fossil fuel shortages, threats of global warming, cultural clashes, and population explosion, this concept might well be what stops man’s over-exploitation of Mother Earth by uniting governments and nations, scientists and laymen in mutual cooperation and understanding.
