Humanity has always been fascinated by the stars, and in the 20th and 21st centuries we've started to really explore space! We've sent probes to distant planets, spaceships all across the solar system, and we've even landed astronauts onto the surface of the moon! But, as we set our sights further and further away, are we really sure that it's the fair thing to do? In this video, Unveiled asks whether space travel is ethical... Do we have the right? This is Unveiled, giving you incredible answers to extraordinary questions!

Humanity has hopes to one day visit Mars, but what if every single solar system planet was safe for us to live on? In this video, Unveiled imagines a far-future reality when all the planets are habitable - from the searing plains of Mercury to the icy world of Neptune. We could see an entire space network emerge, held together by the asteroid belt. And we could even start to look beyond the Oort Cloud, out into the rest of the universe...

The Moon and Mars will probably be the first places in the Solar System that humanity will try to live after leaving the safety and security of Earth. But those worlds are still incredibly harsh environments, with no protection from radiation, little to no atmosphere, and extreme temperatures. Living on those worlds is going to be hard, it’s going to be dangerous. Fortunately, there are a few pockets on those worlds that’ll make it a tiny little bit easier to get a foothold in the Solar System: lava tubes.

MOON — A cavernous lava tube was this week confirmed to exist beneath the surface of the moon. The discovery was after by a team of Japanese and American scientists using data from the SELENE and GRAIL spacecraft to acoustically map the enormous lava tube. These tubes are volcanic underground passages formed by flowing lava to funnel the substance. Once the flow stops, the tube remains with features similar to a cave. The chasm is around 100 meters wide and 50 kilometers long, reported the Guardian. It is located in the Marius Hills region of the celestial body. The cave could provide shelter to astronauts during moon missions, protecting them from dangerous cosmic radiation. This could potentially allow for the development of a lunar exploration base. Details of the finding was published in the journal, Geophysical Research Letters. ----------------------------------------­--------------------- TomoNews is your best source for real news.

Terraforming option - most potential for terraforming. Melting ice caps could pump CO2 into the air and thicken the atmosphere as well as warm the planet Europa Gravity: 13% of Earth’s Air pressure: barely exists - mostly oxygen Temperature: -260F -160C This seems like a swing and a miss, but there’s something interesting under the surface of Europa Tidal heating causes a sea of liquid water beneath the surface. One of the best options for finding life in the solar system Underwater habitats might be the answer. Downside: radiation carried by Jupiter’s magnetic field would pose an issue Titan Gravity: 13% of Earth’s Air pressure: 1.5x that of Earth Temperature: -290F, -179C Of all the places in the solar system, Titan’s air pressure is most like Earth’s You could just walk around on the surface without a suit, except for the fact that it’s so cold methane flows in rivers. Could use the methane for fuel But I promised something controversial, and here it is, my personal favorite option for colonizing another planet… Venus. Venus Gravity: 91% of Earth’s Air Pressure: 100x that of Earth Temperature: 872F, 467C Now I know what you’re saying, you’re saying Joe, that only meets one of the three criteria, how can you possibly pick that as your number one? Because those numbers are for the planet’s surface. Up in the clouds, it’s a different story. Venus’ air pressure is insane. On the surface, it would crush you like a soda can. But about 50 kilometers up in the atmosphere, it’s about the same as here. Which means that just like a ship can float on top of the water, we could build colonies that float on the upper atmosphere of Venus. It would still be hot, but manageable. And I know people will always say, but what if you fall? Or if you drop something, you’ll never get it back. Well, I go back to the ship on the sea analogy. If you fall off the boat, you’re likely to drown. If you drop your phone over the side, you’ll never see it again. But we still have cruise ships carrying thousands of people and entire navies floating around out there. Plus the communication time would be smaller than anywhere else.

Imagine a delivery service that promised to drop your package within five miles of your house, but couldn’t tell you exactly where until after the delivery had happened. That’s how landing on the moon has historically worked, and it’s a problem Astrobotics knows how to fix. The company’s unique GPS system allows it to land spacecraft within meters—rather than kilometers—of the intended target. That might not matter much now, but it will when moon colonizers need fresh supplies from their home planet.

The SpaceX Moon mission is going to send two people on a one-week trip around the Moon in 2018. The passengers are not NASA astronauts but two paying customers who have already put down significant deposits for the mission. It’s a trip that will officially put SpaceX in the space tourism business — and it’s also a trip that could spark a small space race with NASA. The Crew Dragon might land using parachutes or even a water landing, but the animation from SpaceX of it's propulsive landing techology was too good not to use.

In this epic, 2-part episode, we team up with Isaac Arthur to imagine how humans will colonize the inner Solar System, becoming a true spacefaring civilization. Here's Part II https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0W7IRBeDkj4 Support us at: http://www.patreon.com/universetoday More stories at: http://www.universetoday.com/ Follow us on Twitter: @universetoday Follow us on Tumblr: http://universetoday.tumblr.com/ Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/universetoday Google+ - https://plus.google.com/+universetoday/ Instagram - http://instagram.com/universetoday Team: Fraser Cain - @fcain / [email protected] Karla Thompson - @karlaii Chad Weber - [email protected] Science fiction has told us again and again, we belong out there, among the stars. But before we can build that vast galactic empire, we’ve got to learn how to just survive in space. Fortunately, we happen to live in a Solar System with many worlds, large and small that we can use to become a spacefaring civilization. This is half of an epic two-part episode that I’m doing with Isaac Arthur, who runs an amazing channel all about futurism, often about the exploration and colonization of space. Make sure you subscribe to his channel. This episode is about colonizing the inner Solar System, from tiny Mercury, the smallest planet, out to Mars, the focus of so much attention by Elon Musk and SpaceX. In the other episode, Isaac will talk about what it’ll take to colonize the outer Solar System, and harness its icy riches. You can watch these episodes in either order, just watch them both. At the time of this video, humanity’s colonization efforts of the Solar System are purely on Earth. We’ve exploited every part of the planet, from the South Pole to the North, from huge continents to the smallest islands. There are few places we haven’t fully colonized yet, and we’ll get to that. But when it comes to space, we’ve only taken the shortest, most tentative steps. There have been a few temporarily inhabited space stations, like Mir, Skylab and the Chinese Tiangong Stations. Our first and only true colonization of space is the International Space Station, built in collaboration with NASA, ESA, the Russian Space Agency and other countries. It has been permanently inhabited since November 2nd, 2000. Needless to say, we’ve got our work cut out for us. Before we talk about the places and ways humans could colonize the rest of the Solar System, it’s important to talk about what it takes to get from place to place. Just to get from the surface of Earth into orbit around our planet, you need to be going about 10 km/s sideways. This is orbit, and the only way we can do it today is with rockets. Once you’ve gotten into Low Earth Orbit, or LEO, you can use more propellant to get to other worlds. If you want to travel to Mars, you’ll need an additional 3.6 km/s in velocity to escape Earth gravity and travel to the Red Planet. If you want to go to Mercury, you’ll need another 5.5 km/s. And if you wanted to escape the Solar System entirely, you’d need another 8.8 km/s. We’re always going to want a bigger rocket. The most efficient way to transfer from world to world is via the Hohmann Transfer. This is where you raise your orbit and drift out until you cross paths with your destination. Then you need to slow down, somehow, to go into orbit. One of our primary goals of exploring and colonizing the Solar System will be to gather together the resources that will make future colonization and travel easier. We need water for drinking, and to split it apart for oxygen to breathe. We can also turn this water into rocket fuel. Unfortunately, in the inner Solar System, water is a tough resource to get and will be highly valued. We need solid ground. To build our bases, to mine our resources, to grow our food, and to protect us from the dangers of space radiation. The more gravity we can get the better, since low gravity softens our bones, weakens our muscles, and harms us in ways we don’t fully understand. Each world and place we colonize will have advantages and disadvantages. Let’s be honest, Earth is the best place in the Solar System, it’s got everything we could ever want and need. Everywhere else is going to be brutally difficult to colonize and make self-sustaining. We do have one huge advantage, though. Earth is still here, we can return whenever we like. The discoveries made on our home planet will continue to be useful to humanity in space through communications, and even 3D printing. Once manufacturing is sophisticated enough, a discovery made on one world could be mass produced half a solar system away with the right raw ingredients. We will learn how to make what we need, wherever we are, and how to transport it from place to place, just like we’ve always done.

How can we make Mars, Venus, or some of the moons in our solar system more earth-like? Terraforming, of course!

Almost 50 years since man first walked on the lunar surface, the head of the European Space Agency explains his vision for living and working on the Moon. Johann-Dietrich Woerner believes the next giant leap for humankind could be an international collaboration of space faring nations in the form of a Moon village. This village would be a permanent lunar base for science, business, tourism or even mining. Woerner explains how using the Moon’s own natural resources could help build and sustain a base by 3D printing a structure or building element. Robotic rovers could inflate protective domes for astronauts. He also discusses the potential hazards of living on the Moon as well as the possible locations of he lunar base and the advantages of a new global space project.

Jan Woerner, Director General of the European Space Agency, has a bold new vision for space exploration. "My intention is to build up a permanent base station on the Moon," he tells Euronews from the agency's main control room in Darmstadt. "Meaning that it’s an open station, for different member states, for different states around the globe." Mankind has never had a permanent lunar presence, and so this new vision, that Woerner likes to call the 'Moon village', would represent a giant leap in space exploration.

Could astronauts one day be printing rather than building a base on the Moon? In 2013 ESA, working with industrial partners, proved that 3D printing using lunar material was feasible in principle. Since then, work continues to investigate the technique. The shielding against radiation provided by a 3D-printed block of simulated lunar regolith was measured, providing important inputs for next-stage designs... Soon the Agency is due to investigate another lunar 3D printing method, harnessing concentrated sunlight to melt regolith rather than using a binding liquid. But how might lunar 3D printing one day be used in practice? Foster+Partners, contributing architectural concepts for the original study, put together this outline of a hypothetical mission to 3D-print an entire a lunar base, illustrating the design factors that steered them in their work. The rim of Shackleton Crater at the lunar south pole was chosen for the base location. The Moon’s rotation is such that the Sun only grazes its poles at low angles. The result is a near-constant ‘peak of eternal light’ along the rim of Shackleton Crater, beside regions of permanent shadow. Building in the vicinity of such a site would offer plentiful solar power, and relief from the extremes of heat and cold found across the rest of the Moon. In reality any lunar base remains firmly on the drawing board, but each small step forward in research makes future lunar colonisation a little more feasible. In October 2014 more than 350 experts came together for a two-day Additive Manufacturing for Space Applications workshop at ESA’s ESTEC technical centre in Noordwijk, the Netherlands. They discussed the potential of 3D printing – also known as Additive Manufacturing – to transform the way the space industry operates and begin preparing common standards for its use.

The first man landed on the moon in 1969, and we've been obsessed with getting back there ever since. So what's stopping us from establishing a permanent moon base? Learn more at HowStuffWorks.com: http://science.howstuffworks.com/moon-base.htm Share on Facebook: http://goo.gl/n4kO87 Share on Twitter: http://goo.gl/04vOck Subscribe: http://goo.gl/ZYI7Gt Visit our site: http://www.brainstuffshow.com At some point, we’ve probably all dreamed of packing up and moving to a faraway country. And if you really want to put some space between yourself and the hustle-bustle of Earth, the moon may be just the place for you. It’s 384,400 kilometers away -- close enough to travel back home… but far enough to keep random salesmen (and your in-laws) from knocking on your door. So why aren’t we living there yet? The holdup comes down to a few factors: First, there’s the technology. From a purely technological standpoint, we know we can reach the moon. But reaching the moon and living on it are two different things. Future lunar colonists will need to bring or create their own sustainable sources of power, air, water, food and shelter. Bringing material from Earth is incredibly expensive – for example, with our current technology it costs about $400,000 to haul one gallon of water into space. So we have to figure out how to make a lunar colony as self-sufficient as possible. Future colonists may rely on the moon’s frozen water, for example, and grow food in hydroponic farms for food. This is all possible – but prohibitively expensive. Most experts believe that our methods of reaching the moon have to become more cost-efficient and energy-effective to support large-scale operations. These advancements will require a lot of effort, which means they’ll need significant financial support. Both governments and private entities are giving this a shot. But each path comes with its own strings attached: Private industries require the potential for short- or long-term profit. And government funded space programs will require both political and popular support from their citizens. And that can be pretty difficult at times. In early 2010, economics and politics in the US indefinitely postponed NASA's latest plans for a moon base. But America’s not the only player in the game. That same year, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) unveiled plans to establish an unmanned lunar base by 2020. And in May of 2014 Russia also revealed its proposal to build a permanent moon base by 2030. And in the private sphere, Google's Lunar X Prize competition continues to advance small-scale lunar spacecraft technology by encouraging teams from around the world to create hardware, software and vehicles for future lunar endeavors. So there’s no question: The race to settle the moon is on, and there are numerous possible benefits. It’s possible that we could build spacecraft more efficiently, mine helium-3 and establish our species’ first foothold in the stars… and at this point it seems more feasible than ever before. According to the latest plans, human beings could be living on the moon within the next few decades. But will the latest round of ambitious proposals lead to a real lunar colony, or only another series of financial boondoggles?

http://www.euronews.com/ Walking on the moon remains a potent ambition for many people who want to explore the its mineral resources, observe the Earth, monitor weather conditions and even carry out astronomical observation. But Italian engineer Enrico Dini does more than dream about the moon. He aims to use a 3D printer to build moon bases for the European Space Agency. To do so he has created D-Shape, the largest 3D printer in the world. It makes a sort of instant sandstone that Dini says is more durable than concrete and does not require steel reinforcements: "The principle of how the 3D printer works is extremely simple. It's a machine that releases layers of sand, very thin layers, 5mm thick, and sprays a binder, that is a sort of salt water, cementing the sand only in the shapes of a section of the object." The idea is to build a full lunar base, designed by architects Foster & Partners, protected by a honeycomb wall constructed using Enrico Dini's technology. It would be made using lunar sand to avoid the need to transport building materials to the moon, which would be unfeasibly difficult and expensive. Xavier De Kestelier, the co-head of Foster & Partners specialist modelling group, explained how it would work: "You would have a solid hard shell, a cylindrical element, that you're bringing from Earth, and out of that you can have an inflatable. And what we'd do, on the top of that inflatable, which is a kind of support structure, we'd have small robots that will print all around that inflatable. And that would give you your shell, your structure, to protect you from solar radiation, gamma radiation and also meteorite impacts." And if it works on the Moon, why not on Mars?
