We need a reason to do it first.
- Victerius 4y agoMore habitable space, more luxurious accommodations, more energy generating capacity, more space for laboratory equipment and experiments.
- systemvoltage 4y agoHere in SF, we have cars with bumper stickers that say "Leave space alone". So it starts, the birth of space environmentalists.
- giraffe_lady 4y agoMore habitable space than the ground? Maybe some day but that would be a grim future indeed.
- elil17 4y agoIt sounds like you're saying that a bigger space station would enable more experimentation quantity and quality. I would still say that the benefits need to justify the costs. We've gotten better at being frugal/scrappy with how we use space resources, whether that's small experiments on the ISS or cubesats.
