   I've got 2 different answers to this non-issue:   
      
   1.  The Lunar Power Grid + electric furnace.  Who cares if the electricity   
   comes from solar panels on the other side of the moon or from a great big   
   nuclear pile a couple of miles away...   
      
   2.  Space furnace mirrors can point down at the lunar surface just as   
   easy as at an orbital processing facility...
