WOW, I guess no one on HN remotely thinks humans and the earth are facing any sort of environmental problems at the moment. All everyone here is talking about is the profit margins and logistics of pulling this preposterous, albeit very cool, idea off. I'm all for adventure, technology, progress, blah blah blah. I am thrilled about the possibilities of space. But realistically I think we as a species need to better undertand ourselves and create better; more sustainable systems on our native plannet before we embalance our natural habit and ecosystem on an intergalactic scale.

- olefoo 17y agoHere is something to think about, nearly everyone who's been intimately involved in supporting habitat in space has developed a deep and abiding respect for how difficult it is and how fragile and precious the biosphere we take for granted is. Our world is a small watery dot floating in the dark. We don't have a backup.
