Interstellar Commerce
Interstellar commerce refers to the trade and exchange of goods and services between different planets or celestial bodies. As humanity explores space, the potential for economic activities beyond Earth increases, involving resources like minerals from asteroids or agricultural products from other planets. This concept relies on advanced technologies for transportation and communication across vast distances.
The development of interstellar commerce could lead to new markets and economic opportunities, fostering collaboration among different space-faring entities. It raises questions about regulations, trade agreements, and the ethical implications of exploiting extraterrestrial resources, similar to historical colonial trade practices on Earth.
