Tourist colonies and Science outposts have been situated on the Moon for a few decades now. While only a small portion of the moon is considered livable, commercial space shuttles and vacations here are quite popular with the upper and middle classes. These tourist outposts feature large hotels and megamalls, as well as lunar cruises and sightseeing locations.

Blueshift, a prominent ecoterrorism group has managed to build an outpost on the moon and go completely unnoticed by Megacorp and Megacity officials.
