ISS is a space colony that is up there now . Have any of you a satellite dish on the side of your house . The cash you speak of is already being generated . My question is when will the next colony be built and by whom . The race to the moon is on and its resources that is driving the race . Just like 500 years ago . Now there are more people living in the so called new world than in the old world . Once mining companies realize that mining is easier and cheaper in space than picking through this silicon slag heap of a planet ( subduction pulls most of heavy elements to the core ) for the things we must have. They will go into space with all the gusto of the gold rush . Space offers unlimited energy and unlimited resources . imho in 500 years there will be more people living in space than on earth and not down another gravity well. Space colony in the future ?
