For all we know the moon is a big gold mine just waiting to be harvested. I think a way for Bush to pay for this advance is to get Canada and Russia involved in this, Russia has the most advance standard rockets as the U.S rocketry didnt get upgraded since the apollo missions , The Russian rockets are cheap and they have made a profit off of it.
Inventions we will need to be created are artificial gravity , Radiation Sheilding .
