How Close Can Mankind Come to Reaching Utopia? - Part 4

I'm about to repeat what I've aforesaid before, as a result of it's what conjures up American state to put in writing these articles. it is a quote by patron saint physiologist Shaw and later created famed by John F. Kennedy, "Some folks see things the manner they're and say why. I dream of things that ne'er were and say why not?"

I hope you have scan my previous articles during this series in order that I will not ought to pay time summarizing them here. However, as expressed at the tip of my previous article, we're currently about to venture into ch-artless territory on our thanks to utopia. currently that I've delineated  the potential events would possibly|which may|that may} occur throughout the rest of the twenty first century let's guess what might happen within the twenty second century.

Hopefully at the start of the twenty second century, we'll have begun a full-fledged mining operation on the Moon. And, with a lot of and a lot of folks coming into the industrialized world, the exponential rate of increase can possibly begin to curtail. indeed -- exploitation the antecedent delineated  increase model we tend to might reach some extent of zero increase once folks freely understand that it's in their best economic interest to possess fewer youngsters. so i will create this assumption with respect to the twenty second century.

Now i will assume that the drive for modification -- toward utopia -- may well be AN enlargement of the {nasa|National Aeronautics ANd Space Administration|NASA|independent agency} mining programmer instead of the previous twenty first century drive being an increasing population drawback. However, confine mind that at now in time, worldwide cultural variations may need begun to merge.

Let's begin with the enlargement of NASA's mining program, with my read of the cultural merging returning later. Well -- firstly, the mining program can be a driver as a result of somebody can in all probability notice however fascinating it can be living in house and taking occasional visits to any location on Earth -- this in fact needs a cheap mode of Earth to satellite travel vehicle -- nonetheless to be unreal. Living in an exceedingly satellite can be created even a lot of fascinating by adding a system that may permit the occupants to travel and visit anywhere around planet Earth and even the scheme. In any event, there must be AN economic element besides mercantilism satellite properties to flush folks. however concerning robotic mining of gold, platinum, and alternative precious metals from asteroids? however concerning close to zero gravity robotic manufacturing? however concerning close to zero gravity hospitals and nursing homes for burn victims and also the immobilized elderly? however concerning extracting He three from the higher atmosphere of Jupiter? The He three can be brought back in an exceedingly frozen type to the house satellite then came to Earth and used as fusion fuel. If a coffee price fusion nuclear oxyacetylene -- Earth to Satellite -- shuttle were to be unreal, the airline business would possibly take into account this mode of moving folks round the globe at a coffee price and in an exceedingly short quantity of your time. The UPS and Fed Ex business varieties may additionally  see the advantages. maybe they may become a coffee price worldwide transporter of recycled materials. during this case AN magnetism launch ring can be the fabric transporter from Earth to the satellite with a gravitationally oxyacetylene adaptation of the transporter delivery materials and merchandise back to Earth. These -- and probably alternative -- economic drivers can be the stimulant for a colossal movement of Earth's population into house. In time, the robotic assembly method and satellite size might attack an entire new that means and direction, which could eventually result in utopia.

Now, as secure, i am able to begin discussing cultural merging and my definition of utopia, however you will have to attend till my next article. Stay tuned. but if you'd prefer to see AN artist's rendition of the magnetism launch ring -- check it out by clicking on the gallery web site in my reference box.
