"…In the next three decades, human beings will enter the realm of space like never before. This is due in part to the way that public interest in space exploration has been revitalized, thanks to a number of exciting missions that have been mounted since the turn of the century and growing public engagement through social media…" Main page link

It ain't going to happen.
In the 60's we were all told that we would have jet packs and flying cars by the year 2000!
How did that work out? The world will still have petty wars and more pollution. |

Inevitable. China is pushing out and that will force everyone else up as well. The corporations will go because China is going. However, until someone actually deploys a NERVA-equivalent and/or can get to Mars in 30 days AND once a viable magnetic shield and/or Faraday-equivalent gets worked, Earthspace and the Moon is the current limit. |

JMcCarroll +1: study the death toll for manned space flight per person/hour travelled, it will remain the preserve of robots. Of course one day an AI robot will learn to fabricate more of it's kind on another world and then they will all come back and invade earth. |

How did that work out? The lack of flying cars is not a technological limit. It's because we already suck at driving in two dimensions. study the death toll for manned space flight per person/hour travelled, The PRC government (which runs the economy in a communist system) has demonstrated over and over that it has a higher tolerance for the death toll to profit ratio than most of the rest of the world. |
