Yes, all you have to do is drill to the centre to create an exhaust hatch which would be its only weakness.

That would be very expensive and useless.

it would be useful actually, we could send the moon out to intercept collision objects or bring asteroids closer for us to mine them. and worst case we get invaded by aliens we can blow up their home planet.

Sounds retarded, let's just build huge stuff on earth where there's useful stuff like breathable air.

and then how would we ever get it in orbit genius? The moon is already there waiting to be turned into a deathstar.

For what purpose? Destroying other planets?
Wouldn't redirecting huge-ass asteroids more cost-efficient?

it's a death star, it has more than 1 function.
>intercept earth collision objects
>reroute asteroids closer to earth for mining
>mobile base for when the sun runs out of fuel we can move to another star
>military defense force in case of alien invasion
>research for further space colonies
>long term prison (similar to alcatraz) for delinquents

am i missing anything?
