n.— «After the movie, we talked about how you would build the moon base and whether you could actually create concrete using the lunar regolith.

That was something that was quite plausible, so I got excited.» —“Questions for Duncan Jones, Director of the Film Moon” by Erin McCarthy Popular Mechanics Apr. 14, 2009.
