I would like to start a discussion on a matter that is of utter importance to me. I have always been driven towards the allure of space development (Space Utilization, as i like to call it). To me, humanity stretching it's arms towards the cosmos should be the goal of any advanced race. To me, there are unlimited resources and land to claim. Even now (maybe not in this economy), we have the technology to make this dream a reality.
A lot of people find the ideas of terraforming planets and mining asteroids far-fetched and not worthwhile. To me, they are business opportunities and chances to harness unlimited resources: Other planets could hold land for farming, industry, mining and colonization. Asteroids could contain precious metals. The possibilities are endless.
I would like to know what others think of this. Give me you thoughts and feelings towards this idea of space utilization.
