  1. Why should we even bother? That poor thing. There's just something so wrong about humans and our obsession with colonisation. This 'dream' stresses me on so many levels.

  2. About Mars, 38% of earth gravity is basically life and death in the medium to long term. Slightest health issue will be a near death situation, thats how important gravity is. Unless artificial gravity and proper radiation shielding, not even Mars, folks. Yes we can go and put a flag there and thats going to be about, Im afraid.

  3. The BBC News YouTube channel is a valuable resource for anyone seeking reliable news coverage from around the world. I appreciate the efforts to bring behind-the-scenes footage and specially selected clips to viewers like me.

  4. More people don't want to have sex due to high pressure, why do you think they want to have baby in other harsh environment?
    Besides, there is no "total radiation free " technology, if people stay in the space longer,maybe gradually they will lose the ability to reproduce baby due to space radiation. But I guess if you want to become a spaceship captain, then you can just don't care, because to gain more space hours is essential for the job experience.
    Hence, it's interesting to see how human society will evolve in the future,hmm

  5. Why not be born on a space station, where you have gravity, air, water, food, and meters of shielding?

    Rather then in the cold vacuum of space. I mean why would you push the pregnant woman out the airlock to give birth? Kinda makes sense to keep them inside.

  6. Humans do so many crimes against unborn children. Let's just let them chill in their mom s womb on earth. Because we can't even treat them properly on earth. So in space, no way.🤦🏽‍♀️

  7. This is a video that we will look back in 50 years and laugh at it – this is crazy. It's a bit like when we said smoking is healthy for you in the 1920s and smoking is cool in the 1960s 😂😂😂.

    This video will be the same in a few decades.
