| Submission declined on 7 May 2025 by Protobowladdict (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

LumarnityTM is the name given by JGC Global Corporation to the future vision of lunar society and lunar smart community as they advance lunar development. It is derived from Lunar Smart CommunityTM. Both are registered trademarks owned by JGC Global Corporation (JGC Group).
Summary
[edit]The Moon is an "extremely isolated place," and supplies from Earth are limited in both quality and quantity.[1][2]. In such a remote location, ensuring a safe and comfortable long-term stay for humans requires the establishment of a self-sufficient energy network and a recycling and circulation system for limited resources across the entire lunar society[3][4][5][6]. LumarnityTM is named afterLunar Sumart CommunityTM, embodying these features as a smart community.
Sustainable Habitation Base on the Moon
[edit]Supply shipments from Earth to the Moon are limited in both quality and quantity. For humans to stay long-term in such a remote location, a "sustainable habitation base" that ensures food self-sufficiency and resource recycling is essential[3][4][5][6]. In this habitation base, human waste, vegetable roots, and wastewater are recycled to cultivate vegetables and microalgae, and to farm fish. Simultaneously, vegetables and microalgae convert the carbon dioxide exhaled by humans into oxygen. Ultimately, the ideal is to circulate all resources and operate indefinitely without resupply[7][8][9][10]
From a macro perspective, Earth itself is an extremely advanced resource recycling system isolated in space (refer to biogeochemical cycles). Even on Earth, it is impossible to recycle all resources completely, and human activities are accelerating global warming and resource depletion. Complete resource recycling is a technology required both in space and on Earth.
Definition of a Smart Community on the Moon
[edit]A smart community on Earth is generally defined as "a community that primarily uses renewable energy to self-sufficiently meet the energy needs of homes and workplaces, and efficiently utilizes surplus energy within the community"[11]. On the Moon, however, not only energy but also oxygen, food, carbon dioxide, and waste become valuable resources. Taking this into account, the company defines a lunar smart community as "a community that self-sufficiently produces and recycles resources such as electricity, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, food, and waste, and efficiently utilizes these resources by sharing them with each other".
The aforementioned "sustainable habitation base" can independently recycle resources, but in case of trouble, it needs assistance from other facilities. Additionally, if there is a surplus of food or oxygen, it can be transferred to other facilities to avoid waste. On the Moon, where rapid resupply from Earth is difficult, the circulation, sharing, and optimization of resources are even more necessary than on Earth. This is the company's concept of a lunar smart community and an example of a sustainable lunar world.
