Description

Going into space includes an abundance of hurdles. You must deal with weightlessness, a total lack of air, and an environment so vast and empty that Earth's oceans appear like a drop of water by comparison. But despite this, we still believe humans could colonise the Solar System in the near future. In this show, we will look at the methods that may be used to overcome some of the greatest challenges in space exploration. We will also compare these methods to those seen in pop culture, and determine which ones could be seen in our lifetime.
