Fancy a trip in the outer space?
by Claudia Sonea


Star Trek reloaded? In the near future we will live like Captain Picard on a spaceship with more than enough space to live and dream about how it used to be life on Earth. We are already used to turn our fantasies in reality and for the time been we dream at space stations, spaceships and it is not impossible to create these things. However, if we continue to exploit Earth’s resources until exhaustion and destroy the environment with pollution and other harmful activities, the dream to a life on Earth will be impossible. Most people are aware of what could happen, while some! just don’t bother in giving too much thought to the issue. However, powerful nations led by intelligent people are already preparing for worst-case scenario. USA is famous among other for the movie industry and in the past years the focus was on presenting possible situations that would make existence on earth impossible. Therefore, the country is seriously preoccupied with the subject and there are most probably preparations undergoing for such cases. What does the everyday person who strives to make a living actually knows? Officially, nothing or better said not too much to be stressed about. What most people know is that there is a space station created by joint nations like USA, Japan, Russia, etc.; that there is also an ongoing project to create private inflatable space habitats from Bigelow Aerospace; that currently Russia is keeping 18 men in a hatch to simulate life on Mars and together with the EU and Canada wi! ll actually perform the mission. Moreover, Boeing announced th! at it is working on a new Boeing space capsule called CST-100 capsule in order to put the basis of a commercial crew space transportation system. Just imagine how travelling into space will be no longer a dream, but a matter of money- whether you have enough to pay for the ticket.
