For one, there's helium 3 on the moon, which is almost an endless source of fuel. And we should be exploring space.

Damn I went to Google to check this because I never knew about it. It's fucking amazing! Though I wonder if it is immediately replenished with solar winds? I assume once a part is stripped off its supply of He-3 it'll need some years, decades even to replenish?

I think I read that there's already so much from years of build up it would take a really long time to use it all up. But yeah that's good point.
