Space settlement refers to the establishment of human habitats beyond Earth, allowing people to live and work in space. These settlements can take various forms, such as space stations, lunar bases, or Mars colonies. The goal is to create sustainable environments where humans can thrive, conduct research, and explore further into the solar system.
To achieve space settlement, scientists and engineers are developing advanced technologies for life support, energy production, and resource utilization. This includes using local materials for construction and growing food in space. Successful space settlements could pave the way for long-term human presence in space and expand our understanding of the universe.
