Lunapolitics: where political and economic interests intersect with the topography and physical properties of the Moon, from its subsurface through to cislunar space. https://substack.com/@lunapolitics
Geopolitics to expect:
China: accelerate lunar-resource plans, bundle launch/sats/finance, push non-US standards, undercut on price.
Russia: limited cash; legal/political pushback + cyber/influence ops.
Allies: strong interest if licensing is fast/predictable. 12/16

Interlune’s pitch: a smaller, lighter, more energy-efficient lunar harvester; near-term Earth-based He-3 separation; US govt contracts; multiple lunar missions this decade; later, metals/rare earths/water. 5/16

Bluefors already has 1,500+ dilution fridges and 15,000+ cryocoolers in the field. Locking in future He-3 cuts supply risk and signals confidence across the ecosystem. 4/16

Lunar Helium-3 just met Earth’s quantum supply chain. Bluefors × Interlune is the first serious bridge from Moon geology to real industrial demand. Why it matters — and what to watch: 1/16
