美航宇局月球基地工作小组经过研究得出结论说,美国可以在15—20年内实现月球基地着陆计划,建立月球基地所需费用和阿波罗月球着陆计划的差不多,或者说低于美国国民生产总值的百分之一(阿波罗计划费用约是250亿美元,相当于1984年美元值的750亿美元。美国1983年的国民生产总值为33万亿美元,百分之一为330亿)。 The NASA lunar base working group concluded after study that the United States can achieve the lunar base landing plan within 15-20 years. The cost of establishing a lunar base is about the same as that of the Apollo lunar landing plan, or lower than that of U.S. national production One percent of the total value (Apollo program costs about 250 billion US dollars, equivalent to the value of 750 billion USdollars in 1984. The United States in 1983 gross domestic product of 33 trillion US dollars, one percent for 33 billion ).
