Hey, Aliens will not visit the US! They will go to the cool level headed Brits first.

Well, the question seems to be a non starter!

How long after establishing reasonably populated but different national communities will we start arguing with each other and politics poisens the atmosphere?

I have read a lot about Mars and can't see much of a presence on Mars by 2050. Maybe like the ISS an experimental surface station with a crew of four recycled every 39 months (?). Agree there is no immediate commercial advantage apart from 'we got there'. I wonder if anyone has done a plan...

So when is Splashdown?

Clearly the requirement to do this is not stated. Let's get into Space first and colonize, show that we've stop killing each other, one language, have societies where equality rules then we have something to be proud of! Given that it is a good idea (escapes me!) it will need to be live for...

Absolutely the problem I see. It is SO annoying. I intensely hate Ads that reload the page just as I've started reading. What this site needs is a competent web page designer or is it done like that on purpose to get us to read the Ads (!:weary:).

Colonization should be tested on the Moon first. With the proper support network (orbiting hospital + return vehicles) nearby. Gravity issues will pervade every aspect of the mission. Quell those egos!

Where's the full story about 'names on Mars'. I could do with a laugh!

Which one? We need a few experts on this very soon I'm sure.

Sorry gave up! Text too small and feint to read.

Greetings. Asked by Mohamed to introduce myself. Am retired and one of my hobbies is writing a Sc-Fi novel called Purple Fruit (🤔). It's more towards the hard Sci side so factual stuff about Space is useful. Read a lot of books bot Space and AI both fact and fiction so building up on layman's...

Can our instruments see what Star systems are the other side of the Crab Nebula and if so what are they? I cannot see anything online that might explain. I have the Stellarium program for my Macbook but struggling to get the basics understood. Many thanks.
