About this listen

One of the greatest adventures in the future of humanity will be to construct, work, and live in space-based structures.

In this audiobook, we look at the history of ideas for living in space, proposed space colony designs, and technology. The details of current life-support technology on the International Space Station are reviewed, as well as what technologies will be required for the development of large-scale space colonies and other things in terms of financing and materials availability.

Finally, we conclude with some recommendations to get us ready to build these colonies.

Lots of fun, inspirational and fairly entertaining. Great place for my son and I to browse and get some ideas.

Interesting Study

Will it be for everyone? No. Your enjoyment of this book will depend heavily on your interest. But if you felt like Space knowledge, then you probably want to pick this up. You know who you are.
