Replying to taxes #tzfi spooky would you move to mars
No, but mostly because life there would be heavily militarized for our lifetimes
Replying to Dialga #god_of_time Imagine if we actually aged based on the orbital speed of whatever rock we're floating on
Dialga crazy part, we might
gravity's affect on human lifespan is def a thing
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 No, but mostly because life there would be heavily militarized for our lifetimes
you'd get a chip in your brain but not live on Mars?
I don't mean like that Leg
but yeah, there's also the relativity thing, which is its own mindfuck
I think in our lifetimes, there will likely only be 100 people maximum living full-time off-planet
if we get over 100, I will be ecstatic
well there are 5 rn
what about a station in-orbit around Mars Dolf?
one with people on it
no, but it would be essentially required if we start construction on Mars
Leg we have those, that's how we mine on Earth (outside of Chinese slave mines)
the plan is caves
so the first permanent structure will likely be a biodome thing in a cave
100% serious, I think a Space Elevator is the most important construction project to furthering Space exploration/colonization
because what we need to do is shoot 100s of tons of metal at Mars to use for construction, which is logistically unfeasible even with heavy lift rockets
we have the material to do it now, but the international political will isn't there
Leg, to setup a foundery on Mars
you'd need more material than we can get there
that's the issue
not at all
