The contributors to this volume take a radical multi-disciplinary view of the challenge of human space colonization through the ongoing project Persephone. This book fundamentally challenges prevalent ideas about sustainability and proposes a new approach to resource austerity and conservation and providing truly sustainable approaches that are life-promoting. Readers will learn the details of the plans for Persephone – a real project that is part of the company Icarus Interstellar’s plans for the design and engineering of a living interior on a worldship to be constructed in Earth’s orbit within 100 years. Although the timeframe itself is only an estimate, since it is contingent on many significant developments, including funding and technological advances, the industry consensus is that within 100 years we will see manned space exploration beyond our solar system. This notion is shared by organizations such as the Initiative for Interstellar Studies and the DARPA-funded 100-year s | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Artificial Worlds Theory; Ecological Challenges of Space Development; Ecology in Space; Ecosystem Const | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-31042-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-31040-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-31042-8 | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2017 |
