If we ever successfully colonize the moon, the recreational activity I'm most excited for is being able to fly by flapping wings attached to your arms in pressurized domes (or spheres, if near a space elevator instead).
We aren't strong enough to fly with artificial wings on earth gravity, but it seems like moon gravity could work pretty well.
(I think this idea is from an Arthur C Clarke novel?)
Thanks! I think I read a different short story that used this idea, but it seems Menace from Earth likely predated the one I read - probably the first instance of this idea in print?
