Because the Internet is awful and shitty people run this website too, I'm just here because its way more tolerable for the time being lol

I mean, he's not wrong

Of course, I guess it doesn't matter if they're practical or not because Jeff Bezos want to build 'em anyway.

Good luck doing that without an easy and cost-effective way to get people and things into space.

Also, well, it was Gundam that showed that space colonies could be pretty bad if bad actors decided to pump gas into them and\or drop them on Earth.

Yeah. Of course, people didn't know that the earth's population growth would eventually slow down, but today I'm left wondering if there is even a practical reason to build space colonies.

Also I dunno how you shield people from radiation.

Also I'm not sure if space colonies are even needed, because they were conceived with the assumption that the human population would keep growing exponentially, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

They are theoretically doable, it's just that it is so difficult and costly to move things and people into space that actually building them would be nearly impossible. But I mean... it would probably be easier than a moon or mars colony.

who is the green baroness double?
