Sialand concept emerges


Of course, it will be much better and quicker once the Ai's get to working on it.

Its just one innovation, which is capturing debri by bagging the asteroid with a carbon nanotube mesh. Innovations pile up.

That alone may cause it to be commercially viable.

The one and only thing that will make space colonies viable will be independent industry in space...probably initiated by self-replicating robotic systems.

Now ask why would the machinery or their owners want or need humans, especially since there's no pushback from us, civilizationally?

No worries, answer post sleep!

These systems will be more like ants than ambassadors. Their only motivation will be to carry out their directives.

It'll be the same mix as before modernity, when the Brits and various Euors planted colonies all over the world, very isolated yet all knew that one day they would see a big ship arrive.

And Captain Bligh and some few followers sailed a longboat all the way from the South Pacific back to Old blighty - much as an escape craft would find its way way-back to some big habitat.

Many different world views - some ideal, some terrible, and most blah and the same as most others.

Space industrialization - Musk pushing Mars, which pushes other countries to grudgingly at least plan it so as to see if they could manage it.

Him also helping NASA go back to the Moon, which has probably been one of the things that has kept the ChiCom Moon project moving along, even as they're under amazing financial stress.

It certainly may end up being an advanced techno-time out of dystopian sci-fi, with what the ChiComs do looking like the stone age.

If so, we'll only see Zek humans in space, doing what is cheaper than having a robot do it. And killed if its cheaper to do that - in the planning of some AI - than sending provisions at any point.

Ah, but I still want us up there, as I'm very self-conditioned that way, with decades of sci-fi novels that had good, wholesome space colonists - among the villains.

I see Elon that way - yet, to depend on anyone is like wanting to crown Washington as a king.

They all had direct knowledge of bad kings. All who know a bit o' history know that dynasties can "go bad," even if the one you "have now" is clearly a Good King. So no "Good King Elon" for me. Lets hope he plans well, and not utopian, for his Mars colonists.

And the rest of us - Corpo stuff is whats happening now, with a few here and other Countries in that race. If LE works as well as I hope, I and most of you will see for ourselves.

And small moons. Those are essentially the same thing.
