Future Earth prosperity will depend on resources in space
Article Abstract:
Majority of the resources of the solar system are in space, hence in future, the Earth will have to depend on resources in space to improve the environment and prosperity. The material in the space is enough to create land equal to more than one million times the land area of Earth and O'Neill space settlements as propounded by late Princeton Physics professor Gerard O'Neill, can be constructed.
