OK, to do this right, from the start no fossel fuels.

Don’t make the mistake those white supremecists started.

Windmills and solar panels only.

That train runs on batteries.

And don’t bring anything back to Earth, where pollution reigns.

You have a clean, perfect ‘planet’. Keep it that way.

The moon has no liquid or solid hydrocarbons even if it did there is no atmospheric oxygen to burn them with. You have to use solar panels on the moon or nuclear power be it fission or fusion that’s it no other choices.

SpaceX already has a NASA contract to land starship on the moon that beast of a ship can carry 50 tonnes or more to the lunar surface once fueled in low earth orbit by tanker starship versions. The lunar poles specifically the southern one has water ice with solar power or nukes you can split th at into LOX and LH2 aka rocket fuel. The Russians have rocket engines that burn liquid methane and liquid hydrogen in the same engine at different times and mix ratios so it has been proven to work. Running vacuum Raptors on LH2 is certainly in SpaceX technical wheel house.
