A theoretical study of the planning and organization to establish a lunar base is presented. The lunar base is assumed to be on the lunar equator. An initial assembly crew of twelve would be required for initial operations. The average monthly working hours are assumed to be 200 hours per person. The lunar modules for the initial base are limited to a mass of 20 metric tons, a diameter of 4.20 m and a length of 9.60 cm. The study aims at a lunar crew size of 48 by the end of the first 1000 day build up period.
