Abstract

As Earth’s resources decline in the coming centuries, those of other planets will be ever‐more coveted. The commercial exploitation of space will meanwhile continue, with private sector investment in a wide range of leisure and security applications. Is the driving force of this innovation the knowledge that ours is a doomed planet? And if so, can we colonize others in time?
