It's never going to happen. Humans can't survive for long in the radiation outside of the Earth's magnetosphere. To properly shield against it would require literal tons of mass. Every extra pound requires more fuel to lift it, which adds extra pounds, which requires more fuel to lift it, which adds extra pounds...
The only thing we will be sending into space for any stretch of time are robots. We're stuck here.
I don't think so, I think we'll at least planet hop, especially if we learn how to cryogenically suspend people.
Space is a barrier we HAVE to overcome as so long as we stick with the mindset of 'Earth is the only planet we can have', the current globalist scumbags of the world will ALWAYS have a leash on us.
Reasonable, best to set up some kind of infrastructure on the moon first to aid travel later.
I just wonder if we have the wrong path, by that I mean, could we do anything with Venus than focusing on Mars?
Mars is a wasteland but Venus is hell. The Moon isn't any good either, but at least it's close enough that you can go home.
Need to start really getting off world though. Resource extraction alone in space if successfully done would destroy globalism in seconds.
