Actually, there’s a pretty solid chance that a significant asteroid hitting Earth could create enough ejected material to cause serious issues for habitation facilities on the Moon.
if everything is pointless, then why Should we? what point is there in perpetuating our existence, filled for the vast majority with nothing but lifelong suffering?
It’s more than that. I see it as insurance for humanity if we started permanently settling the moon. Then not even an asteroid could wipe us out.
A moon base could not be truly self sustaining for a long, long time, of ever. Probably never, definitely not within say 500 years.
So if Earth goes, the moon base is definitely gone too. There is no saving humanity without saving Earth.
Asteroid hitting seems quite less concerning when mad actively lingers over our head

Moon base is progress to becoming a multiplanetary species. Most people will die in the planet they are born on, but some may get to move to another.
But does it even matter of humanity survives a bit longer or not?
Nothing matters and everything is pointless, but humanity should strive to continue for as long as possible
