NASA's Z-1 Spacesuit Passes Testing

you seem to forget that 70% of the earths surface is water so a more logical step would be to first colonize the ocean surface not to mention here in australia 60-80% of the population lives near the coast leaving room for potentially billions more ppl

also keep in mind the average building height in your city and try and imagine how many more ppl you could cram in if each building was 10 stories higher


resources are a bit trickier but i dare say we will master sub oceanic mining way before we figure out how to get an excavator into space and bring back a few semi trailers worth of iron ore

I fail to see how strapping space suits to the sides of a space ship is going to be a good idea. Seems like a very easy way to have hull breaches when space dust rips a space hole straight through the space fabric.

We get it, they're for space.
