Amero currency, you hit *that* sucker right on the head.
Good shot!

I am not sure I understood your idea about corruption, and blackmailing. Could you elaborate it a little bit, please?

I think Hitler will invest a lot in genetics to make "real germanies". That should not mean, that he wants to clon people.
I think he will to modify the DNA of the babies so that they have blue eyes and blond hairs. ... just German

Well, the Earthlings probably have taken the genmods on to new height. Think of today's plastic surgeries, boob-jobs, penis enlargements, etc. The brave new world of 2018 probably has their own genmod doctors who will make your body parts bigger, better, and more beautiful, just that what the exact new "fad" or "fashion" is is debatable.

Glossary:
genmod = genetically modified body part

Now, for A. Huxley (same initials as A.Hitler :) ... I have not read Huxley's books, but I recall reading some marketing abstract on the back of the book. I recall his future had leaders genetically engineering servants who were "happy" doing the manual labor they were "designed" for. This is modifications to their "genetic hard-wiring of the brain" if you can pin-point such a thing. Or perhaps it was about brain-washing them since childhood for some task. I think the brain-washing part could go with the Moon-Nazis quite easily.

Bored of cloning. Why is cloning the subject of every damn scifi concept? zzzzzz

I agree that it kind of connects to the Nazis desire to breed the perfect Aryan, but the Nazis were also big romantics and that shouldn't be forgotten. In other words, they had this glorified fantasy world vision of the "master race" who were NATURALLY superior (ie: they wouldn't need any kind of scientific enhancement) to other supposed "races".

In reality, there is no such thing as different types of human "race". We are all the same. But are the Nazis still living in their deluded fantasy? Presumably. I think the idea of cloning the 'master race' would have been distasteful to them. Clone some subhuman slaves, maybe.

The Nazis were big naturists and were ahead of their time in terms of protecting the environment (didn't they make laws protecting their forests and such like?) How would the Moon Nazis deal with the lack of nature on the moon - build big artificial forests?

As far as the effect of reduced gravity on the bodies of generations of Nazis brought up on the moon - I like to imagine they would come up with monstrous, industrial-looking machines to deal with such things (visually, it strikes builds on the theme of "Iron Sky").

How about if everyone sleeps (or spends part of their day in) in a big centrifuge?

Good thinking, but you're forgetting one thing. The Nazis were quite fond of experimenting extensively, and preferably not on their own (but extreme circumstances call for extreme measures). As we all know, thousands and thousands of people were killed this way. But how many Nazis actually took off to the moon? Couldn't have been more than a handful, maybe a few thousand or so. That wouldn't have left them much to experiment on. They would have taken great care with every subject, of course, but still - could they have come that far with so few test subjects (and so few means)?

One way to solve this would be to have them create clones - lots and lots of them, expendable ones, like in the 'Star Wars' prequels.

their "radical" researchmethods would have resulted in a more advanced medical knowlege. mostly in injurytreatment and pysical developement.
living on the moon vor seven decades with 1/6 of the usual gravitation would leave the current generation of nazi-soldiers high grown weaklings with glassy bones without any stamina. prakticably absolut unfit to battle earthsodliers on equal terms.
so the moonnazis would have to counteract the effects of the low gravity, maybe even turn that in an advantage.
i think artificial gravity is kind of far off.
so they would have genetic threatments and drugs, special trainingequipment to keep their bones and muskels on earthlevel or even push them above. in addition they could reduce the airpressure in their moonbases to simulate an high altitude training (and to preserve energie)
thinking of our ability to provide artificial replacement vor nearly every major bone in the human body, i would think it is not far off to think moonnazis would have even gone to the next level.
without ethical resentments they could have found a way to solve the problem that come with implementing foreign objekts into the organism. i'm not talking about startrek-borg but something like an eary forecast
(last moment of of the movie- a beatup-nazi-saucer taking of to the deltaquadrant ... just kidding ;) )

The Nazis certainly were interested in genetics. Good point.

I like your thinking christoph! I think we can all take a leaf out of your book.

also china- the new superpower? or at least, in ten years time there could certainly be a clash between china and america! it's funny but america, the massively consumerist nation depends on the goods that china produces. if china were to with hold goods from america the uproar would be excessive. then again, china's economy depends on the consumerist nature of america. but with having such a high population density, if anyone had a reasn for world domination, china would have possibly the best. perhaps with north korea as it's long destructive nuclear arm?

And lastly, if terrorism does become a huge threat (although here in england london has /alWAYS had terrorism problems) perhaps that would spur groups like the neonazis to also commit such acts. I think the moon nazis are definately terror from outside, but the terror from within i think is closer than we might think!!

if you look at mobilephones i would say the impact and the changes are massive. they morphed from big bones to small supercomputers. they changed the face of citys. not only phonebooths disapeared but you have strangely mumbling peolpe running free without someone calling vor mentalhealth personel!

sudden world wide desasters are most unlike to happen. even the meteroid that (most likely) startet the klimatic changes during the dark ages, like sudden drop in temperatures, drop in total sunlightquantity and drop in foodproduktion, didn't have the impact on the human race we like to imagine.

the chances will reside in the smal details. new york is the same city as bevor 9/11 but you don't have lugage-lockers anymore.
a interhuman transmittable birdflu might kill millions but the most residial chance would be the everydayuse of facemasks in the western world (similar to asia)
we had desastrous wars since WWII but they also made vor small not big changes.
even if we have war in iran and even if iran manages to use a smal atombomb and even if amerika has to withdraw from that war like in vietnam or korea, we won't have a maior shift in global politics. economy won the cold war, economy will decide the dynamics of global politik for at least 25 more years.

the biggest changes will be the spread of terrorism. new groups will rise with different goals. not only religion, left or right extremists, but also ecological and economical groups. terrorism might change into an insane sort of caotic robin-hood-like gerilliafight between small groups and governments and big busines.

I know it's a completely different ball in the game, a very long shot to another direction.

However, with the information we have about the script for now it's just impossible to know, what actually might fit in to the script. It might well be another option the script would need for becoming much better. The team might well find such a twist in the script suitable for an additional surprising turn in the story. And this one would be relatively easy to include. And it IS a fairly realistic possibility.

A bit off the mark in my opinion. If the movie goes in too many different directions it would lack cohesion. Nazis from the moon messing with our computers genetic algorythms? Too many balls on the court at one time to explain.

Jeb Bush would match as the US president. In the synopsis there's Jenna Bush, but she just got married and has already changed her name.

Voice of America said in 2006: http://www.voanews.com/english/archive/2006-08/US-India-China2006-08-07-voa68.cfm?CFID=248142790&CFTOKEN=75973393

"According to Eland, India is the biggest player in containing China - - a strategy, he says, that also includes Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, Australia and Russia. Washington, he argues, worries that China's rapidly growing economy could pose a problem in the future."

By 2018 Japanese, Chinese, and Russian investors start to cash in on the huge national debt of the USA. Because the US Govt has spent on deficit for so long, nobody wants to buy their G-bonds any more, instead US starts to privatize its public land and sell parcels to foreign investors.

California and Texas have broken free from the Union. Spanish is now the first official language of most of the southern states of the USA. All the so called "illegal immigrants" have been granted some sort of "amnesty".

American schools have failed its students miserably. Social security promises cannot be kept. Cost of health care and all failed reforms have caused millions of uninsured and uneducated and unemployed people to seek better future in the south and north. Canada starts to limit illegal immigration from the USA.

South American countries have united and most of them are running some kind of socialistic systems. Cuba has come closer to market economy and its citizens gain more and more freedoms each year. Since the death of Fidel Castro, Raul has failed to be the next true leader, and the CP has no other rising stars.

Japanese genetical engineers combined their efforts with the Chinese, Koren and Indian, where they can now safely control the number of childern, the sex of the child. All countries of the earth have adopted 1.5 children policy, where national lotteries give extra child to those who can affort them (read by enough lottery tickets).

Oh niiiice idea

a giant version of space ship one :-)

@Christoph Lakner:
As you know monocycles like those in my artwork exist the the real world and (still) have the problems that you stressed, but they cam be very "cinematical", practically realistic, and interesting for the design in a futuristic movie as Iron Sky ;)

those monocycles didn't make it on market for a reason, sudden stopping especialy with high speeds is near to impossible. realy not fit for policemen ;)
