About

Hi and welcome to Settle the Solar System, a Lunar Homestead podcast.This episode covers how we can use Lunar Homestead's Shielded Pressurized Resource Extraction (SPORE) concept to settle the Solar system. From Mercury to the Oort Cloud and everywhere in between.Segments[00:00] - Intro[01:01] - SPORE recap[02:32] - Distance is irrelevant[03:15] - Back to the Moon[05:42] - Mercury[07:23] - Venus[08:42] - Back to Mars[09:10] - Asteroid belt[11:52] - Jupiter[14:50] - Saturn[13:48] - Newsletter reminder[16:32] - Uranus[18:48] - Neptune[20:40] - Kuiper Belt[21:17] - Oort Cloud[22:00] - Orbital settlements[25:03] - Needed research[26:44] - Listener Question - Why are spaceships impractical for a Solar civilization?[32:31] - OutroKey pointsSPORE can be used anywhere we can dig underground.A location with metal-oxides is preferable so Homesteaders can use the oxygen to pressurize the SPORE work area and use the metal to create the habitat pressure hulls.SPORE can be modified to work with a variety of metal oxides.While some locations will be more difficult than others, humanity can make a home anywhere in the Solar system.Orbital settlements will be the pinnacle of space settlement tech. With them we can fill up the Solar system with life.Spaceships, while cool, are not needed for a Solar civilization. All we need are orbital settlements and a little patience.
