I've always imagined that the first people to leave earth to form colonies would be religious sects like the people aboard the Mayflower.
I for see Mormon colonies and maybe a few colonies created by various sects of Islam like the Kurds.

What would lead you to such a ludicrous idea?
>>286026770
Is it really feasible though? There no planet close enough.
>>286026770
Nah. Earth is sacred and centre of universe. If we had different religions then they would. But the ones we have are all about sacred places here. Wrong religions, sadly.
>>286029095
Here is a chart of some of the ones we know about.
>>286029205
Well, maybe not religions but most likely a collective of people that share a similar ideology.

>>286038016
It's stacked and edited, might not be the most natural color balance or saturation. The moons are not visible (well you can barely see two right of the planet) because of exposure, having the moons with it makes the planet too bright.

Fun fact: when someone uses this word, you know they're either trolling or fucking stupid.

This is a space thread, not an ethnic cleansing thread.

You think people in 50,000 years will give a single goddamn about your bullshit? All that will matter is that we went out there.
>>286038532
Nothing special probably. With this pace we've sent men to Mars, maybe to Venus too and studied Europa, Titan and other moons better, but nothing more

Likely even more so as they will have a far more advanced understanding of genes and thus will have absolute and unquestionable proof that shitskins are indeed hopeless at the genetic level and cause deleterious damage to advanced peoples.
>>286039184
You can't "take a future". That doesn't make any sense, anon. Everyone on board Spaceship Earth has to play a role in our departure.

But yeah, we should cut the military budget in half.
>>286039336
I am so, so glad that people like you will eventually die out. Idiocy and space exploration don't go together, so most of you chuckleheads will be left out.
>>286039149
Infact, the next improvements in space travel will be made by private companies with the intent of mining asteroids, it was already proven alot of them are full of precious minerals.
For now the governaments aren't interested in exploring space, and if you are wondering why nasa went to the moon to begin with it's because it was a huge dick contest between super powers "look guys we can send missiles in space and land on the moon, you aren't safe from our nuclear devices".
>>286039149
They're too slow and mostly can't get nothing done unless they get huge sums of money
>>286039000
>>286039156
NASA just happens to be a part of the military budget, dunno why. I'm fine with US shoving money into defensing their country, but the amounts of money they put into operations in Middle East is just ludicrous and I don't see what they gain with that
>>286039341
>Everyone on board Spaceship Earth has to play a role in our departure.
They won't. Much like now, only a small proportion of the world actually does anything of worth in society. The rest are along for the ride. This is ingrained within our species as pack mentality. A few superior individuals carry the group.
>>286039341
>You can't "take a future". That doesn't make any sense

>>286039616
That's why Apollo was funded, but I've seen and read enough about the program to feel that at least some of the people involved actually had some vision with regards to the future of the race. Dick measuring contest or not, it was a gigantic milestone.
>>286039746
I think you're wrong. Just like with the opening of the New World to European colonists, a great deal of the people who depart will be downtrodden and poor, trying to seek new opportunity in a virgin land. I wouldn't be surprised to see indentured servitude pop back up under a new name.

Oh you mean the colonization that the european empires rushed for resources while they were waging war with each other and that massacrated the native civilizations of the "new world"?
They didn't go there because they wanted to explore, they were sent by the european kings to expand their territory, gain new resources and thus gain the upper hand over the others, they killed and were ready to kill even more for those.

Everything about earth, the moon, earths orbit, the moon's pull on the earth, the moon reflecting sunlight at night, earths axis and rotation, our distance from our sun and the output of energy from our sun; all of that combined is what makes life possible on earth.
it's a long and specific recipe, especially since Earth and The Moon used to be one planetary body in the solar system billions of years ago until it smashed into another planet that used to exist.
maybe theres other ways to get life, but we certainly havent found it.
>>286042021
We have a sample size of one. I suggest we hold off on making any assumptions about what life may be possible until we can precisely define what "life" is.

I claim Mars in the name of the Olympians
Suck on that
What music do you think of when you think of space?
>>286044439
I won't call you a faggot, I'll encourage you to go fucking buy it right now and read that shit. Don't stop reading untill you're done I say.
>>286044439Light up and read it, especially if you like philosophy or history at all.

>space colonization will happen soon
Nope. Not unless your definition of "soon" includes the next century or so.
Space stations are way off because the effect of microgravity on the human body is utterly catastrophic, and we simply can't survive out there for long.
Planetary colonization is way off because, guess what: Other planets are uninhabitable by human standards. The amount of work we would have to do to set up even a temporary settlement on any other planet would be completely infeasible, let alone a permanent colony.

Shit, no, I don't, but if anyone else has it I would love to see it.

Calm classical music

The Mass Effect OST's "Uncharted Worlds"
Tool's Album :"Lateralus"
Mahler's 3rd and 5th Symphonies.
Friendly reminder that new research provides more evidence for a sea once covering most of Mars' nothern hemisphere.

samefag here.
The second book in the 'main' trilogy primarily covers one group chasing another group/person to a different system while both groups use intertial dampeners to increase acceleration and it captures the effects that this has on the ship, crews, etc.
I never thought a book like this would become one of my favorite singular books of all time.In the universe, it's suggested that past civilizations had developed FTL travel but wiped themselves out of existence doing so.
What makes a well designed spaceship in vidya?
Does it have to be aerodynamic?
Can it be blocky or oval shaped?
>>286044843
Only calm?
I can see why. But you need some tension too.
>>286044875
Damn straight. Mahler is the best. I also love Strauss' symphonies and I'd dare even say some of Edvard Grieg's short compositions.
If you liked those Mass Effect songs, you'd like Sins of a Solar Empire OST. Give it a try, it's all up on YT.
Have some ultra high res Saturn.
want me to post more of my space engine screenshots? This is my personal fav

>tfw Based Putin is doing his best to restart the Cold War and space race
For me, it's something big, and warmly organic/home-made.
Sleek is okay if it isn't smooth chrome
>>286045272
Blame LoGH for the Mahler kick. I can't separate space and Mahler, now.
Thanks for the Saturn, have a Mars.
>>286045517
Realistic master race
>>286045264
It has to be cool.
Whatever you think is cool is up to you.
Personally I like semi-blocky dynamic designs that can change forms during landing and such. I'm no fan of the extremely skeletal functional designs NASA often does with their sondas and other deep space satellites.
I liked Babylon 5 a lot though, it seemed to just work.
WHAT IS THE BEST PLANET
>>286045654
Enjoy being eaten by space daemons whenever you go above the speed of light.
>>286045806
>40k is realistic
Fuck y'all spergs
I wish I was already interested in space when I was a kid. I might have studied properly.
>>286036846
That game is comfy as hell, until the comet I parked on heads straight into the fucking thorny asshole planet and I'm running to my ship as this brambly fucker looms ever larger on the horizon until finally we plunge through its surface and the comet vanishes and I'm frantically jetpacking to my mosquito ship and I get inside and get control but I'm in the middle of the black cloud and have no idea what direction is the way out as I spiral deeper and deeper into the core of this monster and reality suddenly melts away and my life flashes before my eyes, then I'm back on a familiar shitty crater talking to some bitch nigga about launch codes.
Then it's not so comfy.
>>286045517
I like armored but a stylized traditionalist design I can totally get behind.
>>286045927
This exact same thing has happened to me before and I've posted about it
>>286045909
Reading comprehension is tough, bud.
You'll get there.

>tfw borg cubes are literally flying ghetto space favelas
>>286045654
Neeeerd
>>286045775
Hopefuly the one that we colonize
>>286045806
Even tho I'm a big fan of 40k, I've always found the ship designs to be too much for my taste
>>286045982
>fucking battleships in space
Retarded as fuck.
>>286045982
What the fuck did that ship shoot?
>lasers that form a wormhole that sucks the ship hit into it
>>286046059
Ooh, I lied, I also really like EVE ship designs
>>286046106
Where were you when ring ship was final Cylon?
I hope they get on that carbon nanotube hype train soon. I want a space elevator, goddamnit!
>>286032589
>Born just in time for the European race war.
>>286046176
The only effective warship design is a missile carrier and that's boring as fuck.
I always liked the ships in Halo, personally.
>>286046176
Don't give a fuck.
>>286046219
Pretty sure it hit the alien reactor or some shit. I haven't seen the move in a while.
RATE THESE BASED ON HOW FEASIBLE THEY ARE
>graphene
>carbon nanotubes
>thorium reactors
>warp drives
>cold (or at least not sun-hot) fusion
>reasonably easy terraforming
>FTL communications
>FTL travel
>>286046059
I love the gold plated Amarr dildos, no sarcasm. Stylized but still seem feasible.
>>286046620
ftl communications seems likely
>>286046610
It's a movie? What movie?
>>286046373
I love the Covenant ship designs, they look like birds of prey. Like alien fish-reptile hunters. You see the battlecruisers soaring like sharks on the hunt, their stingrays and their lampreys latching on and engaging.
I love these semi-organic designs in shape that aren't inherently organic themselves.
>>286046363
The artists has some really awesome stuff, I have like 20+ stuff of his saved.
>>286044173
Never heard of the series before but I'll add it to my to read list, looks pretty good.
>>286046761
FTL comms have always seemed only possible to me with FTL travel, and that ships would have to be messengers.
>>286046620
Warp drives would be a form of FTL travel.
>>286046610
Source?
>>286046968
>>286046786
Space Battleship Yamato
I think
>>286046968
>>286046786
Space Battleship Yamato (2011)Anime is better.
