We are doomed to die on this fucking planet:
>Anecdotal reports of human exposures to lunar dust during the Apollo program suggest that lunar dust has toxic properties. After each EVA, the crew modules were heavily contaminated with dust; many astronauts reported coughs, throat irritation, watery eyes, and blurred vision that likely reduced their performance. A flight surgeon exposed to the capsule interiors after recovery developed what appeared to be allergic reactions to lunar dust that worsened after each exposure. The apparent toxic effects of lunar dust were never comprehensively studied after the program, and the concentrations of dust that contaminated the spacecraft are not known. In each case, symptoms resolved within 24 hours, and post-flight pulmonary testing found no permanent impacts in the astronauts.[29]
>A 2005 NASA study listed 20 risks that required further study before humans should commit to a human Mars expedition, and ranked "dust" as the number one challenge. The report urged study of its mechanical properties, corrosiveness, grittiness, and effect on electrical systems. Most scientists think the only way to answer the questions definitively is by returning samples of Martian dirt and rock to Earth well before launching any astronauts.[8]
>Although that report addressed Martian dust, the concerns are equally valid concerning lunar dust. The dust found on the lunar surface could cause harmful effects on any human outpost technology and crew members:[20][21][22]
< Darkening of surfaces, leading to a considerable increase in radiative heat transfer;
< Abrasive nature of the dust particles may rub and abrade surfaces through friction;
< Negative effect on coatings used on gaskets to seal equipment from space, optical lenses, solar panels, and windows as well as wiring;
< Possible damage to an astronaut's lungs, nervous, and cardiovascular systems;
< Possible increased risk of spacesuit arcing due to small dust grains' exposure to the space environment.
>The principles of astronautical hygiene should be used to assess the risks of exposure to lunar dust during exploration on the Moon's surface and thereby determine the most appropriate measures to control exposure. These may include removing the spacesuit in a three-stage airlock, "vacuuming" the suit with a magnet[23] before removal, and using local exhaust ventilation with a high-efficiency particulate filter to remove dust from the spacecraft's atmosphere.[24]
>The harmful properties of lunar dust are not well known. Based on studies of dust found on Earth, it is expected that exposure to lunar dust will result in greater risks to health both from acute and chronic exposure. This is because lunar dust is more chemically reactive and has larger surface areas composed of sharper jagged edges than Earth dust.[25] If the chemically reactive particles are deposited in the lungs, they may cause respiratory disease. Long-term exposure to the dust may cause a more serious respiratory disease similar to silicosis. During lunar exploration the astronauts' spacesuits will become contaminated with lunar dust. The dust will be released into the atmosphere when the suits are removed. The methods used to mitigate exposure will include providing high air recirculation rates in the airlock, the use of a "Double Shell Spacesuit", the use of dust shields, the use of high–grade magnetic separation, and the use of solar flux to sinter and melt the regolith.[26][27][28]
Basically if you even solve the atmosphere problem, the lack of heat problem, the gravity problem, there's still the fucking dust that kills you in a day. If you ask me this is one of the main arguments against a god figure "creator". Why not put terraformable planets or moons in our solar system? We live on a 1 in a billion chance planet and the rest are just deadly orbs.
>inb5 we will live in cities built on fart clouds on venus

>>605986>can't go outside for long periods>constantly have to heat, wash, oxygenate yourself>the water needs even more energy to be thawed out>planting plants to cover an entire planet takes 2000 years minimum>no atmosphere, oxygen just escapes the planet anyway>suboptimal gravity, you run out of bone hurting juiceunrealistic
building a huge space-station is more realistic than this terraforming nonsense – at least you can control the environment from the beginning
>>606013Yeah there's big limitations and obstacles, but I see no reason to declare it's impossible without even trying.
The problem with a huge space station is that at least with a planetary base you can mine useful resources for construction from the planet itself.
>>606045>Don't see why it would take 1000 yearsHow long till you restart a planet's core? To plant its entire surface? To have sustainable energy and oxygen supply?
Basically you have to industrialize a whole planet
>>606045>but I think you could win a lot of people over with the dream of spreading life across the solar system/galaxyUnlikely,, because it would be a lot of boring monotomous labour they would never see fruits of, especially if you imagine some post-scarcity society where they could do literally anything else instead.
All of this is assuming it would require human labour of course, rather than just making a robot that does it all for you. That would be realistic, you basically drop an AI with automated assembly factories on the surface, have it mine local resources, expand production, mine more resources, expand…, etc, until it has means to reshape entire planet.
>>606058>An AI robot magically mining all the minerals you need without human oversight is realistic.>>606049Are you familiar with the Drake Equation?
>>606041Or maybe God intentionally made earth the only cosmic harbor of life within a thousand light years because seeing how destructive humans are.
>>606731Building massive space stations that can simulate artificial gravity is also a stupidly hard endeavor that at this point is a vanity project for people like Bezos, and then what? What will you research and what resource can you directly extract from the void? On mars you have a place with potentially a shit ton of useful resources, water, natural gravity, ways to shield yourself from radiation with dirt or even by putting a magnet in L1 etc. And again the terraforming would only happen after technical and scientific breakthroughs combined with a big enough population and economic base to justify it.
In any case planetary/moon colonization and space stations building wouldn't be opposed, on the contrary having manufacturing/refining plants and research stations in space would contribute to a space economy which would enable to move more people and more resources to Mars and other bodies that could be candidates for colonization or even terraforming in the long run (Titan?).
Of course a lot of it is speculative and we need to do much more research to make it all happen, and by the way I think going to mars and problem solving ways to live there and make self contained ecosystems would also improve our understanding of earth. As opposed to the stupid argument about how we need to fix earth first.
>>606748>Building massive space stations that can simulate artificial gravityNot necessary. Use genetic engineering or nano machines to stop bone and muscle atrophy.
>What will you research and what resource can you directly extract from the void?Who said you are in the middle of a void? You would settle in any solar system you like, probably in orbit around a planet or star. Meanwhile, terraforming makes you dependent on only being able to settle in some solar systems with planets that meet your criteria which then also takes a shit ton of time you would spend to terraform them.
>On mars you have a place with potentially a shit ton of useful resources, water, natural gravity, ways to shield yourself from radiation with dirt or even by putting a magnet in L1 etc.Life on a planet that isn‘t terraformed would be miserable. I don‘t see why one would be so adamant at trying to make this happen if not for the sole reason of romanticizing being a pioneer.
>In any case planetary/moon colonization and space stations building wouldn't be opposedI never said they are opposed, I am saying with the two options available to becoming an interstellar species that settles other solar systems mastering building space stations is preferable to making terraforming as your main focus. As said, with terraforming you will be limited in your options, it takes a lot of time, and I wouldn‘t underestimate how uncomfortable life could be on a planet that won‘t exactly be like Earth, which a fraction of a minority of planets will be.
>on the contrary having manufacturing/refining plants and research stations in space would contribute to a space economy which would enable to move more people and more resources to Mars and other bodies that could be candidates for colonization or even terraforming in the long run (Titan?).I have similar ideas, only that my focus is to live in space indefinitely and have networks of space stations, space high ways and drones across the solar system gathering resources and building whatever we need in space. Terraforming would be something done on the side line and as a serious option for settlement only a rare occasion.
>>606785You can't exactly criticize terraforming as a wild idea while on the same post defending your a crazy concept because it would get solved trough nano machine magic. Tbh at the point we can send people to other solar systems we would be at such high levels of tech it would be too difficult to ponder the why and how.
Me I'm more interested into how realistically this kind of thing could happen, so with our current mode of production, and you really have to take the economics into account first. Yes when we get permanent bases/settlements on mars it will be miserable at first, but this is not a problem because there are dozens or even hundreds of thousands of people who want to be astronauts and could fit physical and psychological criteria, and would be willing to do 2 years shifts over there for a fair compensation. Capital would not be lacking as it will first be invested by states for prestige, universities for science and then the private sector will take most of it over when the initial investment has been enough to begin to make a buck. Really the only thing lacking for now is launch capability and with Starship coming online with other states following suits it's a matter of a short decade before this process really begins. It's less about people wanting to make that happen and more about the planets of capitalism aligning.
The fact is you're looking at permanent settlement on the moon and on mars very soon, and although it's not certain it will able to be sustainable and grow, the stations you speak of are still a complete pipe dream that would require far more than what we can do now to get going. Bezos mentioned a plan of having factories in space, which could be great, but we barely know how to do anything in micro g, while on other bodies digging archologies and planting food under artificial light all rely on known tech and can be done partly with in situ materials.
Terraforming would only come after the economic base of such settlements would then break some unknown barrier, and I would bet it will happen long before we're trying to settle in other solar systems.
>>606857It is now, but it could not be at some point.
>>606927We don't really know how much it would take, it would depend on how much stuff is thrown at the problem, we don't even really know what the problem looks like (a few robots aren't enough), which is something we will be closer to identify in a few years with the sample returning and then when operations begins on Mars (with a lot of luck in 2029, most likely in the 2030s)

Space travel has always been a domain of immense curiosity and exploration for humanity. However, the high costs associated with space missions have limited the accessibility and frequency of such endeavors. The good news is that advancements in technology and innovative approaches to space travel are making it increasingly more affordable, paving the way for a new era of space exploration.
Firstly, the development of reusable rockets is one of the key factors driving down the cost of space travel. Traditional rockets are disposable, which means they are used only once and then discarded. This results in significant waste and high costs. However, companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin have been working on developing reusable rocket systems. These systems involve launching a rocket into space, landing it back on Earth, and then refurbishing it for future missions. This not only reduces waste but also significantly lowers the cost per launch as the rocket does not need to be replaced after each mission.
Another factor contributing to the cost reduction of space travel is the increasing use of private funding and entrepreneurship in the space industry. Companies like SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Virgin Galactic are investing heavily in research and development, driving innovation and competition in the field. Furthermore, advancements in propulsion technology are also helping to make space travel more affordable. For instance, electric propulsion systems offer greater efficiency than traditional chemical propulsion systems. These systems use electricity to ionize gases and accelerate them to high speeds, allowing spacecraft to reach high velocities with less fuel. This results in lower costs as less fuel is needed for the same journey.
Additionally, the use of 3D printing technology is revolutionizing the way spacecraft components are manufactured. By using 3D printers to create parts on-site, the need for extensive supply chains and transportation of heavy equipment is eliminated. Moreover, the miniaturization of technology is making space travel more accessible. Smaller satellites and spacecraft require less fuel and resources to launch and operate, reducing the overall cost of space missions. The rise of CubeSats, which are small, modular satellites that can be easily launched into space, is a testament to this trend.
Lastly, international collaboration is playing a vital role in advancing space technology and making it more affordable. Joint missions between countries allow for the pooling of resources and expertise, leading to faster progress and cost savings.
In conclusion, the future of space travel looks promising as technological advancements and innovative approaches continue to drive down costs. The increased affordability of space travel will open up new opportunities for exploration and scientific discovery. It will enable more frequent launches, allowing for better monitoring of Earth's climate and environment, as well as enabling us to study celestial bodies like asteroids and comets in greater detail.
Furthermore, the decreasing costs of space travel will also make it possible for more people to experience space tourism. This not only offers a unique and exciting experience for individuals but also generates revenue for the space industry, further driving innovation and growth. Additionally, the potential for commercial exploitation of space resources, such as mining asteroids for precious metals, could provide significant economic benefits. These resources could be used to manufacture goods on Earth or in space, potentially revolutionizing industries and creating new ones.
In summary, the cost reduction of space travel due to technological advancements and innovative approaches will have far-reaching implications. It will enable more frequent and diverse space missions, drive innovation in the industry, and open up new economic opportunities. The future of space travel is indeed bright and full of potential.

>>607187You are talking about a completely different thing. I'm telling you there's no escaping the pull beyond the event horizon, I'm telling you there's no approaching the speed of light without material objects completely disintegrating.
You are telling me that in the future (tm) they'll have secret anti-event horizon cream to apply to spaceships and secret reintegrator juice.
You are a literal fucking idiot who thinks that the fact we have iphones and laptops proves we can bend the laws of nature with our minds.
>>607189As we move forward, it is crucial that we continue to invest in space exploration and research. By supporting the development of new technologies and promoting international collaboration, we can accelerate progress and ensure that the benefits of affordable space travel are shared by all.
Moreover, we must also address the environmental concerns associated with space travel. As the frequency of launches increases, it becomes increasingly important to minimize the impact on our planet and develop sustainable practices for both launch and re-entry.
In conclusion, the future of space travel holds immense promise. By embracing technological advancements and innovative approaches, we can make space travel more affordable, accessible, and sustainable. The pace of progress in the space industry has been incredible over the past few decades, and there is no doubt that we are on the cusp of a new era of space exploration. However, there are still challenges to overcome. We must continue to invest in research and development, foster international cooperation, and ensure that space travel is conducted in a responsible and sustainable manner.
By doing so, we can harness the full potential of space travel and unlock its countless benefits for humanity. Whether it's advancing our understanding of the universe, spurring economic growth, or inspiring future generations, the future of space travel is truly boundless. As we look to the stars and dream of what lies beyond our own planet, it's important to remember that space exploration is not just about scientific discovery or economic gain. It's also about fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity in ourselves and in future generations. By making space travel more accessible and affordable, we can inspire young people to pursue careers in STEM fields and engage the public in the thrilling adventure of space exploration.
In conclusion, the future of space travel is filled with promise and possibility. By embracing technological innovation, promoting international collaboration, and ensuring that space travel is conducted in a responsible and sustainable manner, we can unlock its full potential and usher in a new age of exploration and discovery.

ATTENTION ⚠️
This is a quarantined thread.
OP is a well known thread spammer on /games/, /weapons/ and /leftypol/.
If you see a shitty W40k, Starship Troopers, Fallout or other sci-fi thread barely related to the board and about a topic nobody fucking cares about, then it is most likely OP.
Examples of threads by OP are:
>>>/games/37369<Why da Imperium of man is da epic>>>/games/38523<Da starship troopers are le epic>>>/AKM/5275<Da drunesss are like my sci fi brooMoon dust: A hidden danger that will cause harm to colonizationThe Moon is surrounded by an exosphere, an extremely thin layer of gas. That is, the atmosphere there is so thin that it is often neglected. But astronaut activities, resource extraction, and rocket launches can upset this equilibrium, raising large amounts of regolith above the surface. This can damage both missions and equipment.
Rosemary Killen, a planetologist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, emphasizes the danger of tiny dust particles. Moon dust, formed by collisions of space rocks and the impact of the solar wind, is a threat because of its finely dispersed structure. Dust can damage lungs, electronics and machinery, as well as obstruct visibility.
Additional sources of pollution, such as vapor emissions from spacecraft or life support system leaks, will also affect the environment. Even small amounts of water or gas can spread over significant distances, settle in shaded regions, and alter the chemical composition of ancient frozen ice deposits.
An important task for scientists is to analyze the pristine ice in the craters, where water may have been stored for centuries. However, water vapor created by human activities can mix with natural stocks, making data interpretation difficult.
The missions of the Artemis program, which NASA runs with commercial partners, involve the active use of large vehicles. Heavy landings by such vehicles can lift dust to high altitudes, creating short-lived “atmospheric” pockets of gas and particles. Space agencies plan to minimize these effects through careful selection of landing sites and optimization of flight paths.
However, even a few seconds of rocket engine operation can cast dust over significant distances, polluting remote regions. Moon dust can damage astronauts’ lungs, scratch spacesuit surfaces and clog mechanisms. It has properties similar to coal dust, which is detrimental to the health of miners.
There is also a risk of dust transfer into the living modules. Dirty spacesuits, tools and Mars rovers can bring it into airlocks and rooms, creating additional health and engineering hazards.
Missions to the Moon promise new discoveries, but also remind us of the importance of responsible exploration. Efforts by space agencies, scientists and private companies are aimed at minimizing the impact of human activity, preserving the moon’s fragile environment and ensuring the safety of researchers.
In the future, smart soft landing technologies, controlled resource extraction, and global cooperation will pave the way for exciting discoveries, preserving the Moon for generations to come.
