Space colonization.
Where's that moon colony we were promised?
- krapp 6y ago¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Americans stopped caring about the moon after they planted their flag on it to dunk on the Soviets. When China, Africa, India or whomever else lands on it in the future I hope they knock it down.
- 11thEarlOfMar 6y agoThis is a start, but you may have to bypass the moon and go straight to Mars for your colony: https://www.inverse.com/innovation/spacex-starship-elon-musk-explains-rocket-to-the-moon https://www.inverse.com/innovation/spacex-starship-elon-musk...
- gremlinsinc 6y agoI don't get why they built the ISS and NOT a moon colony... I think a moon colony could be good for mining helium3, maybe creating some sort of manufacturing facilities (or maybe even an asteroid colony) that's a hub for space-mining. Got to start somewhere, and since it's more expensive to launch from our gravity, might make more sense if majority of space launches/etc was from space structures w/ less gravity. Though, a space colony would have to maybe figure out gravity, or something if that was magenitized uniforms that made your body feel as thoughit were in earth's gravity so you don't lose muscle/skeleton mass.
