Through the general expansion of space settlement and the development of specific, isolated settlements designed to survive, space settlement increases
Human travel to other solar systems and establishment of settlements in space and/or extrasolar planets in these solar systems. NSS
Modification of other planets or moons to support human, animal and plant life in a manner similar to the Earth.
Orbital “cities in space” built from asteroid or lunar materials. NSS Roadmap to Space Settlement Image: Alexander Preuss DESCRIPTION Orbital space
After robotic identification of suitable asteroids, robotic and human crews following to establish mining bases and habitats for transient occupation,
Remote or robotic characterization of near-Earth (and other) asteroid orbits, compositions and structures. NSS Roadmap to Space Settlement Osiris Rex
The Martian base evolving into a permanent settlement, increasingly self-sufficient and increasingly focused on commercial activities. NSS Roadmap to Space
Following identification of a suitable base location and the selection of the particular infrastructure and equipment needed there, establishment of
An integrated and sustainable system capable of safely transporting humans and cargo from Earth and/or cislunar space to the Martian
Satellites orbiting Mars and robotic landers, supplemented if needed by rovers teleoperated by an orbiting crew, determining the location, nature
A lunar base or other lunar habitations evolving into a permanent settlement, increasingly self-sufficient and increasingly focused on commercial activities.
