Join Richard Campbell as he talks about the near-term technologies that are moving this idea closer to reality. The first problem is getting up there - and improvements in rocket design have substantially lowered the cost of access to space. Then the question - what do we do up there? And how do we stay? And is that even possible in the long term? Why bother being a space-faring civilization?
