Summary:
This whitepaper reviews the timing and milestones associated with large scale space migration with distance from Earth as reference point
The Five Overviews
The private sector is playing a crucial role in making space travel and habitation a reality. Indeed, the farther out in the solar system we go, the more expensive it becomes to explore. Thus, deep space is still largely dominated by government space agencies. At present, Low Earth Orbit is the only place where companies are conducting activities independently (without the need of a government agency).
Ultimately, any space-based business must have an Earth-based customer in order to be profitable. However, the private sector is increasingly moving deeper, toward the Moon in particular. Their activities beyond the Moon are currently largely limited to contracts from NASA or other government agencies; the companies are not carrying out these missions independently.
However, this is bound to change in the coming years and decades. Large-Scale Space Migration (LSSM) would become a reality only through the involvement of private sector. In this Bridge to the Future White Paper #1, we will consider five “overviews” of the human expansion beyond Earth. Who is going there and who is investing in these enterprises?
