NASA and Elon Musk Reveal Plan To Colonize Venus

NASA and Elon Musk Reveal Plan To Colonize Venus

Humanity has thought about colonizing other planets since the dawn of astronomy. We’ve written books, and made movies about it. But now it seems we’re closer than ever to make this idea a reality.

Scientists have considered a lot of candidates for Earth 2.0, and they've found some!

What would it be like to live among Venus' clouds, or reside inside Mercury's underground lava tubes? What planet is going to be the first one to have human colonies? And how different will our lives become once we leave our home?

Get ready to hear about the plans that SpaceX and NASA have been working on and what’s about to happen in the near future!

i love that phrase "we are now closer than ever" yes, thats how time works.

[blockyquasar]

Not happening while I'm alive that's for sure (pain)

[TheTarrMan]

Wish I could be a part of this. I remember thinking years ago why don't we do Venus instead of Mars. Venus actually has an atmosphere. It's just the sulfuric acid and the heat we need to worry about. We can deal with the heat by staying near the poles, and we now have much more modern plastics and polymers to deal with the acid than the Soviets had back in the day. I think it's doable. Edit : We'd still need a pressure suit (actually it would be an anti-pressure suit or a "lite-vacuum suit".) to deal with the pressure but the ultimate goal is to build something underground.

Being that Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system with a 900 degree temperature I don’t think anyone is thinking about colonization of Venus

[ramyworldwidechannel]

Our planet is sooo awesome and full of life, if we learn not to destroy it we could leave here a bit more

[TBTrade]

This made me realize we're even further off than I thought as far as life on Mars.

[Sam-Ang]

Why can't they fix the very planet we are living on.. find ways to improve the overall habitat.
Wouldn't it be easier & more useful ?

[gypsy]

We love ❤️ Earth 🌎 and can’t imagine living without it!

[eeveefennecfox]

I just wanted to know if nasa would ever try to explore venus again, I had no idea that they wanted to colonize venus, how do you colonize a planet that's super deadly? if we can't even send a single rover on it?

[Steve-sprx]

Saving our own planet would be infinitely more beneficial and easier than colonizing any other planet. That is reality.

[daisuke]

well we always thought he was nuts but this puts the cherry on the cake

[williambenner]

I wouldn't want to live on any other planet. Give me earth or give me death.

[trashboat]

People will claim it’s impossible and sci-if bs even though sci-fi bs is legitimately our future. Everything we have now came from the creativity of a person in the past so why is it so crazy to think that peoples creativity now could change the future.

[averagejoemomma]

The possibility that I can see a colony flourish on Mars within my lifetime is an exciting thought

[SpiritofOurLord]

Venus literally has the most hostile environment of all the planets close to us. 😂

[peteruk]

He’s been watching to much Star Trek - so, what does one do on Mars? All the films I’ve seen of Mars, everyone is trying to get off it?

[paisiranpayez]

I think human must make all the deserts on the earth livable first before going to other planets

[chapelperilous]

It seems whatever we imagine has the potential to become reality. Need to keep imagining the seemingly impossible if we are ever going to see if we can do it,

[farrelwillian]

the worst thing is, I wont be able to live that long to see the mission😂

[kxngmorales]

Colonizing other plants would be similar to how people thought cars were going to fly in the future... Just because they found possibilities doesn't mean that it's going to work in their favor

Also if this were true and we could colonize other planets, would this mean that humanity is taking the step to creating alien life
