Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur

Every known planet, moon, and asteroid in our solar system occupies a volume of space both enormous and yet tiny compared to the vast empty gulf between stars. But interstellar space isn't truly empty and may one day be home to countless billions of isolated deep space habitats.

Science Fiction has shown us humanity exploring the stars at hundreds of times faster than light speed, but what if the fastest ships we can make never even reach a hundredth of light speed? Can we still settle the galaxy and what will that colonization entail?

In the future humanity may build enormous structures, feats of mega-engineering that may rival planets or even be of greater scope. This episode catalogs roughly 100 major types of Megastructure, from those that are cities in space to those that rival galaxies.

Many don't realize that most of our satellites and space stations aren't intended to be far from Earth, but rather, as close as we can get them and still maintain a stable orbit. How much lower can we go in the future?

We believe Mars may once have had oceans and sky, but lost them from a lack of a magnetosphere. How does this happen, and how can we create a magnetosphere for Mars so we can terraform and live on it?
