How would we design Ships with current technology, and what
would realistic space ships designed with current Technology
look like? (The space shuttle is 1970s)
What major technology advances would be required?
How would we go about mining cruithne? Colonizing
Sedna?
"throw the time limit of 50 years out; lets just look at some of the problems that must be overcome…." Okay, but only because others are so negative, not because it isn’t technologically possible.
Call it 100 years to Sedna and 20 years to Mars. Nevermind timelines; what are the problems and the BEST solutions we can come up with in THEORY????
"many scientific disciplines that will be involved in solving those problems – pretty much all of them. " Physics, Sociology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Psychology, Ergonomics, Ecology, Biology, Botany, Herbology, Permaculture, Architecture,…What other sciences are involved, and what involves them and how?
