This is a talk I gave in 2010 - 15 years ago - at the Asia-Pacific Regional Space Agency Forum in Melbourne. At this time, there was no hint that the Moon would become the renewed target of exploration. Some people, across the both space and archaeology sectors, thought what I was doing was stupid. Some made this very clear to me! Indeed, one of the Japanese delegates at the forum attacked me viciously in the question time after my presentation. (It was so vicious that one of his colleagues apologised to me afterwards). Anyway, as how to manage heritage values in space is a hot topic in the space community now, it seems my ideas have merit after all. So here are my slides from all those years ago.
