short answer:
>Yes. The jews.
long answer:
to space travel we needed a few key inventions that same have not been made yet
>[x]infinite food sources
>[x]c02 into oxygen
>[ ]travel faster than the speed of light
>[ ]way to stop minute astroids form destroying the ship at high speeds
and/or
>[x]infinite thrust (microwaves)
>[x]infinite energy (nuclear)
>[ ]reliable long term human storage (freezing pods)
>[ ]companies that will pay for it
the last one is the most essential, you can thank the jews for that not being ticked, if bill gates turned his money into space instead of feeding africa then we could be well on our way, fucking niggers not feeding themselves.
>>72006251
Nit enough bang for the buck yet. As technology advances in robotics, things like asteroid mining will become less risky and financially viable. That will lead to advances in space technologies that can be put to other uses like space tourism.
If you want advances in space, support automation and robotics. Forget about meat bags in a tin can for a while.
Space is for elites only. You're not invited.
we are working on our space age technology

With space colonization, the seat of power will have lesser influences on further colonies.

Launching things into space right now is incredibly expensive and presents an enormous barrier to entry. Investments have to have a reasonable rate of return in a future for corporate interests to want to invest, and government interests are lowering NASA and space based investments, not raising them.
Is it possible to colonize the Solar System?
Sure. It's going to take a metric ton of advancements and money to make it economically viable.
Recently, a good one was made, were a discovery regarding batteries.
http://www.engadget.com/2016/04/22/accidental-discovery-batteries-last-years-longer/
This will be helpful for colonies, because if batteries can now last a long time, bigger ones can be made.

we could expend the resources of the entire earth to successfully launch 2000 people into space so they will survive, so far the rich guys can't figure out which 2000 of them should go, they could care less it would kill the rest of the earth's life in the process
We literally have the technology to build it. This is the reason for the US presence in the middle East. We need to rid the region of foreign influence so we have the largest possible area that we can build this ship.
The Government's of the world already know the earth is in serious danger from Naburu and are preparing to evacuate 10 million Human beings from Earth. These will of course be the most physically and genetically superior of each race.

That will just lead to a Matrix-style future where the robots do everything while we sit on our asses hooked into a VR MMO.
Humans need to be at the forefront and in control.
We haven't colonize it yet because humanity is not yet smart enough. They all worried about their waistline or how to be the best singer or sports star.
>>72009365
that's like... 20 bucks man. Buy like 100 kilos and that's alright.
Because we have better things to spend our money on, here on Earth right now.

so i take it no one has a real reason why?
There is nothing up there
>>72009831
There's tons of people explaining why.
>>72009857
Are you fucking stupid?
There's a TON of natural resources, raw , insane amounts of resources in the asteroid belt. There's like entire fucking asteroids full of high quality, pure metals we've detected.
There's resources EVERYWHERE in our solar system.
It's just well, incredibly deadly for human occupation.
>>72006251
It costs ~10,000$ to send a pound of payload to space.
>>72006251
It's UTTERLY impractical. Imagine you're in a city and there's a bombing. Some people dead, but whatever. Now imagine you're in a space colony. One bombing is SERIOUS business, as you could all die.
Why not colonize any of the deserts, Antartctica, etc? Why not just reclaim land. All of these things make way more sense.
>>72010007
but no one can agree to anything.
space colonization is the next logical step in our evolution.
the reason why we are right now in the transitioning phase between earth bound matters and space travel. only 70 years ago we were all bothered about countries invading other countries.
its very quick that we already begin setting for space.
there are several organizations and attempts to shift our awareness towards the stars.

>>72010007

Frankly, it seems like an endeavour that is only worth it when this planet has been stripmined bare

I completely agree with you. There's TRILLIONS of dollars worth of minerals and metals just in the asteroid belt alone.
No they can't figure out artificial gravity, "BUT BUT THEY CAN SPIN A RING AND CENTRIFUGAL FORCE RIGHT?" This is a stupid idea, lets assume you can spin the ring fast enough to achieve this, even then the force difference between your feet and your head is significant and anytime you stand up sit down lay down ext... you will pass out or feel like passing out.
>>72010226
>But would the cost outweigh the gain?
No.
You don't have to conform to the laws of gravity or most of the laws of physics as we know them now, when you're going at 8-10 km/s around the planet.
No need to lift things up, you just slide them next to each other, weld 'em, and be on your way.
The initial cost would be fucking retarded, but once we start getting space planes that lift 10 people up at a time to a 150 person capable spacecraft in earth orbit destined for Mars, nobody will give a fuck.
>>72010076
Imagine you're a species on ONE planet, ONE asteroid, ONE pandemy, and the whole specie dies !

You buy silver because when it corrects to fair market value it will move up in a higher percentage amount
Deutsche bank just admitted to rigging gold and silver and has agreed to turn states evidence on other banks there are already lawsuits underway and silver picked up the last few days of last week it's still over 17$ today it will be escalating in short order buy now
Silver will go back to being a monetary metals
a few guys will figure out how to do most of the silver stuff with copper
>>72010275
that would require only a certain minimal radius of the ring to remedy
>>72006251
There's no money in it, and there's plenty of land down here.
Once we're all Muslim in a century or so, it'll only be another century until we figure out who wins in the battle of ideologies, and then another couple centuries until we peacefully coexist long enough to consider space colonies.

Ultimately, you've got to consider that the level of scientific achievement needed for occupation rather than simple transit, is on a whole other scale.
Most people do not contemplate the level of comfort we live in our planet. The temperature, the air we breath, the water we drink, the food we eat, the gravity we have,the protective environment we have - we'd have to find a way to replicate these comforts, or work around the effects of not having them.
It's going to take at least a good fifty years before any real long term project to create a long term colony in space is enacted.
Either that, or we'd have to discover something in space that creates a modern gold rush that drives an explosion in investment.

>>72010675
Plants need more than just co2 to exist brofessor, why do you think there aren't plants on mars or the moon. We could just plant some plants on mars and wait 20 years for them to populate but it doesn't work that way cause there are more factors
Whats nice about space too is that combat would be so impractical that infighting would be uncommon and earth wouldnt be able to control any colonies.
>>72008930
I guess recycling?
Assuming a generation ship (ie: generations of humans living on a ship directed to another planet) you could recycle organic materials (even dead bodies) and go on indefinitely as long as you can feed energy into the system (light for plants, etc).
Though a somewhat strict birth control might be necessary to avoid bottlenecking on organic resources
Its the only way for humanity to survive. Its only a matter of time until these monkeys kill each other with nukes.
>>72008778
They can initially control space 100% by simply being the gatekeepers to space from Earth.
>>72010790
Oh, I'm sure asteroid belt mining will become profitable within a generation, or so.40 years.Once some brilliant mind lowers the cost of lifting materials to space, we'll likely be mining asteroid belts cheaply, and destroy earth's economy with massive amounts of quality resources from the asteroid belt.
Establishing a colony, however, unlikely.
Maybe, MAYBE space stations. For transients.

>>72010275
>thinking the ring idea is feasible for the near future
For high velocity almost-direct approaches to other bodies (AKA literally what Musk has been preaching about for the last 10 years), you can get completely away with free fall environments.
People have stayed on the ISS for a year straight with no permanent damage, three months is entirely possible. Just do an hour or so of gym every day and be on your way.
>>72010592
No. An 8 meter long arm results in a a circumference of about 50 meters, which is entirely enough to avoid any force related problems.
"Oh, how are you going to get a roughly 10 meter long ring into space though, anon?" you ask. To fix that you can just produce it in space using minerals mined off of lower gravity bodies, and weld/produce it in fucking space.
>>72010632
>The temperature
Astronauts generally float around in a toasty 20 degrees Celsius.
>the air we breathe
The ISS does this completely fine, it even filters out exhaled moisture and puts it back into the water system.
>the water we drink
This is only a problem if you think all waste water is going to be shot out into space. They recycle black water, grey water, and all.
>the food we eat
Plants have shown capable of being grown in freefall environments, and astronaut food (MREs) are easy as fuck to store (especially with the abundance of space)
>the gravity we have
See above.
>the protective environment we have
This is really the only valid concern you have, and even this can be brought down to negligible levels with radiation shielding and quick travels.
Gas all niggers and we might do it.
technical question:
would it be logically possible to terraform planets that aren't in the habitable zone? the situation would have them lose their terraforming again for not being in the hab zone wouldnt they?
on a related note, you all should be playing shores of hazeron if you are space friends like me.
>>72010921

>>72010945
>>72010904
Of course Earth would be in total control of the colonies.
You have to understand that these early colonies would in NO WAY be self sufficient. There's nowhere that could manage that.Even Mars doesnt have the resources to sustain a population for long- and wont have the industrial capability to do so for many years.
Colonies in Mars and the Moon will be Industrial and Research complexes, for AT LEAST a century.Reliant on Earth. Nothing more.

>would it be logically possible to terraform planets that aren't in the habitable zone? the situation would have them lose their terraforming again for not being in the hab zone wouldnt they?
It entirely depends on if the core of the planet is active. If the core isn't active, you might as well be pissing into a desert.
also here is a factor no one has accounted.
space has different timeflow than planets.
just thought i would put that out there.
>>72010963
Agreed, however point is once were that far advanced colonization will also be that much closer to advancement. We'll see, of course. All we need to do is get somewhere and study it.

>>72011328
Yes, but those are only really a problem if you're going to be staying in free fall environments for multiple years if not more.

>>72011104
What
>>72011189
said.
Though it could be possible to fabricate solar mirrors to increase the amount of radiation (light) a planet gets.
Get one asteroid with lots of metal and one with lots of silicon, melt them both with lasers, vaporize some material using lasers to make them spin and make them collide to create a mirror.

The kind of money required to get to these asteroids safely and in a timely manner is astronomical in cost, and that doesn't even count how you'll be transporting those resources back home, and all the shit you'd be building to extract it.
Similarly?
>MUH GLOD
>MUH PLAMINUM
Too much of either of those things back on Earth would immediately crash the market, and what started as
>HOLY SHIT I'M RICH

>I can't even sell this shit for pennies on the dollar.
Which is spectacular if you want to get either of those things in mass quantities back on Earth for minimum amounts of dosh, but odds are you'd get assassinated by someone in either market for even considering doing it.
So, sure, there's tons of resources out there in space, but bringing it back to Earth is retarded when we have plenty of that here anyway.
But no, there's no money to be made in space right now. By the time you die, there will be no money to be made in space. By the time your great-grandkids die there will be no money to be made in space. If you're lucky, your great-great-great-great-great-great-grandkids will start to tickle the gooch of the prospect of going to space for the sole purpose of harvesting resources either for space projects or to bring back to Earth, and even then, you'll still likely be a few generations away from it being legit.

I promise you if we had the leaders that led the age of imperialism right now we would be attempting it. Many scientific limitations still exist and we also have too high a population for it to be feasible. What would need to happen is we'd need to take the best and brightest with us (regardless of race/gender and whatever just the absolute smartest people) into space no more than say 300 million people. Unfortunately thanks to liberals, we'd be forced to take genetic dead ends for "diversity quotas".

>Age of Imperialism
For one thing there's no competition for Space. Whilst the Age of Sail had the crazy need to fund grand projects and piss expensive wars and so therefore a clear motivation to invest into colonisation and exploration is immediately apparent, today there is no grand project or piss expensive war in which there are roughly equal powers or underdogs willing to rock the boat and counter established powers.
I mean for a while SpaceX and co might start something but at this point our innovative attitude is like that of the Greeks and Romans : "Why bother applying all these wonderful concepts we have discovered when we have slaves to do it for us?" And throw in the sheeple who worship the next piece of shit from Apple and there's absolutely little incentive to get serious about eploration and the glorious expansion of the Human Empire.

Please change the Swedish flag to Danish flag.
Swedes will be extinct before we get to Mars.

Oh no there'll be "Swedes" just they won't qualify by the time that rolls around.

To be fair Fuglesang is arguably the most accomplished astronaut that isn't from the US or Russia/USSR
>>72018414
>dat Swedish flag
Very racist to the average Swede. This is a country that hates its own identity.
>>72006251
What are the benefits of space colonization? Fuck all.
What are the problems with getting it to work? Fucking everything.
That's why we haven't done it.
>>72018414
I don't bloody think so.
>>72006251
>Is space colonization possible?
No there is no way to protect people from radiation and the solar wind
>why haven't we done it yet?
See above also there is no need to send some people in space for what? What can they possibly do to benefit anyone?

All those discoveries are irrelevant for most people and have no large scale benefit other than astrogeologists
>>72011669
It's seriously time to just nuke yourself brazil holy shit you're retarded.
There's plenty of high oxygen, small plants you could use. Snake plants is a good one since it doesn't require much sunlight.
>>72019177
Okay, how about those metallic sheets they give you when you survive drowning. Or a fire.
Those are a direct result of NASA trying to get to the moon.
Or balloons at a party.

Without caring for imperialistic concepts such as "profit", we would have planted apple trees on Mars if USSR had its way.

>apple trees
Space Gulag more likely imagine just sending hundreds of rockets filled with filthy Capitalists inside of them and crashing them onto Mars. The fires from the burning wreckage and the fould gasses of the rotting corpses will produce enough gasses to buffer the atmosphere and terraform the planet once more for human habitation.

>>72006251
Because all those that did in the past were exterminated.
>>72020358
Reapers please go
>>72019973
Maybe you should have planted those trees in your own backyard so you wouldn't have had to buy fruit on the black market for exorbitant prices.
>>72016961
by then sa whites will probably all escape or go extinct and south africa will equalize with the neighbor countries.

Every. Fucking. Time.
I study commercial space operations at university right now, and I can tell you for certain, no.
Give it a few years and we can start on Bigelow aerospaces "space hotel" (they paired with ULA recently and they have a record for being on schedule)
Until then, don't expect any interstellar tier "o'neill colonies" popping up around the place.
>>72021097
gods is not a good term. in the far past gods was synonymous to slave masters. only today we're so cucked we love our captors and oppressors who have left us long ago. we're suffering from stockholm syndrome.
>>72006251
Because it's expensive and only practical on a large scale once we have a space elevator. Colonization of the moon will be retarded easy once that hurdles overcome.
In the meantime, permanent small scale habitation of the moon is entirely within our capably and is likely to happen soon.
Why?
The moon is a low gravity terrestrial body made of high same shit as Earth. Mining on the moon, once the infrastructure is set up, will make a huge amount of resources available to us.
Refinement of these materials and the manufacture of finished goods in low G and orbital environments will make a lot of large scale projects a fuck of a lot cheaper.
Tl;dr the moon will be colonized since it has the same geological make up as Earth, but the shit is easier to mine because it has less gravity.
>>72009416
That's dumb as fuck and you are dumber than fuck for saying it.
>>72009522
That's not actually a real argument.
>>72009857
It is made up of exactly the same things as the Earth and they'll be easier to mine and manufacture.
>>72008827
>using words

>>72007199
>CO2 into O2

>>72010226
It would certainly make environmentalists happy. You can get huge quantities of resources and turn them into finished products off world without harming the Earth's environment.
>>72010275
You can send people on a work camp rotation so that their bodies don't begin to decay after long term exposure to low gravity.
Three months on, three months off for example.
>>72010630
Why not both?
We could be, but the SJW's and liberals are holding us back.
We landed a probe on a comet, instead of congratulating the team, the lead guy got bashed for wearing a shirt with women on it.
Back in 1969, we were happy we landed on the moon, now people don't want us to go to Mars for fearing contaminating the planet, when we already have so much robots on it.
>>72006251
>Is space colonization possible?
No.
>>72025046
How isn't the planet pretty much dead
>>72009365
a common plastic PET I think is already the best lightest radiation shield we have and use
>>72015227
The idea that we need "more people" to accomplish scientific achievement is leftist drivel. Most people have nothing to offer beyond economic contribution, which they already do
>>72011104
Yes, it's not entirely difficult for us to terraform Callisto, the Jovian moon that is the least irradiated. You would live on floating cities 800km in depth and run the risk of a wave throwing you into space.
Venus, which is inside the goldilocks zone is also very worth our time for terraforming.
It will take a long time to accomplish it, but it's definitely worth our time as a species.
If Terraformed, Venus would be almost identical to Earth, but it would have much longer days.
The moon is the best bet for the short term. You could slam about a hundred asteroids into it and break it free of the tidal lock... From there, you begin all large scale colonization projects in the solar system.
>>72011164
The inhabitants would also still identify with their nation of origin.
>ITT: Conspiracy theorists
Living in space is more expensive than living on earth. When living on earth becomes more expensive than living in space, we will move there. Easy as that.

You can just send all of these people into space.
>>72006251

You don't seem to understand how prohibitively expensive it is to put things into orbit.
We will colonize the oceans before we colonize space.

It's been possible for decades. Schlomo just won't let us because space travel is the ultimate form of white privilege.

It was possible before we decided to go all-in for the jews and make millions of niggers our financial responsibility.
So, instead of mars, we have hoods and hip hop.
Possible.
To the extent of solar system.
We'll never have the technology to make another planet truly habitable. We'll be stuck here on earth forever, with minor massive moneysink stations on moon and mars that never lead anywhere.

Silvio Santos is a retard mormom motherfucker who manipulates peoples lives in Brazil just like this guy.
It's possible, but opnly child rapists will go to space since NASA is filled with masson retards motherfuckers. I hope SpaceX doesn't have the program "suck a baby".
Oh about Silvio Santos, this dead reatard motherfucker CERTAINLY invests mess with other people's lives because it makes him profit.
The next step in his plan is to use one of his million prostitutes to date computer scientists, aiming the one who will get a job at IBM, because they will develop a new cruptography to USA and Brazilian army, since Apple will open Iphone crypto to help fight against terrorism.
You may not believe it, but You only need to live here to understand how disgusting this country is. For fuck sake, babies are singing songs about pussies turning into cunts!
>>72006251
It has already begun. I can't say much more.
>>72013422
But without some kind of instant space comunication we couldn't hold colonies anyway. They would split up
