'The only way out is up'. All the raw
materials for life are up there waiting for us to go out and
plant forests up there, instead of chopping them down here.
All the evidence we have in terms of anatomy and genetics, make it extremely difficult to believe, that we are not animals.
Before Charles Darwin's collosal insight, we never understood that we were actually animals.
But we are animals with one vast difference, all other species, are very
largely adapted to the environment. We have evolved the ability to
change the environment to fit our needs, so we can live virtually
anywhere, this does not give us the right to turn the 'Garden of Eden'
into a parking lot. (Please take note literalists, I mean the 'Garden of Eden'
as a metaphor)
Our species tends to describe our history with word pictures, emotions,
TV programs, films and rituals, lest we forget. No I'm proposing
something radically different, that our history is actually an equation, in
roughly the same sense, that a multicellular body can grow
starting out with one cell, that doubles, becomes 2 4 8 16 32 64 cells
it is around here that the cells start to differentiate into the over
200 different kinds of cell that it takes to constuct a human body. What I'm suggesting
is, the morphogenesis of our culture has endowed our species with, the
ability to vastly amplfy the ability for 'life' to fertilize space using
the same mathematics that created all the bodies of our species, plus all the bodies of all the other species.
There is a lot of silica and aluminium on the moon, these elements
could be the raw materials for something very like Richard Buckminster's
geodesic domes, using the silica to create glass and the aluminium to create the frames.
With things on the moon, only being a sixth of their weight here, makes
building much easier and larger structures cheaper, once the infrastucture is in place on the moon's surface.
If we can fly drones around the earth from thousands
of miles away with which to kill people, we can control machinery on
the moon to construct domes, using the raw materials that are on the moon
already.
A sizeable proportion of the moon's rock is oxygen, if we extracted
that oxygen and released it in vast domes, we could breathe as long as
there were no leaks. Ok a normal nitrogen oxygen mix, would be nicer,
but it would not be essential for survival. Divers when they need to go
real deep, breathe in an oxygen helium mix.
If the human race does not go forwards, it will go backwards and end up
drowning in it's own polluted decadence, in believing money or sport are the only true religions.
First the Moon, then Mars, then Venus, then the Stars.
