• can range from 34.5 kPa (5 psi) to 101.3 kPa (14.7 psi)
• optimum is believed to be at 69 kPa (10 psi)
• enclosure structure must contain the pressure

• protection from radiation and micrometeoroids
• insulation (temperature differentials of 250°C)
• regolith cover is most feasible
• at least 2.5 m - 3.0 m of regolith cover needed
• avg regolith mass is 1.7 g / cm³
• dead load results to 8.3 kPa
(1.2 psi)

Additional Critical Environment Factors
• Regolith dust: very small particles that are easily electrostatically charged, easily suspended and displaced, are abrasive, and attach to everything
• Moonquakes: Order of magnitude ~ 5 Richter, can last 10 minutes vs. 2 min max on Earth
