Building the Space Infrastructure: Developing the Cis-Lunar Neighborhood

This book tells of advancing into space and building an infrastructure along the way to make it easier, and safer, for humanity to expand. In this case, it is from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to the Moon, known as Cis-Lunar Space.Here we talk about industrializing space, by setting by space factories to make all kinds of space made products, from medicines to crystals to alloys that would benefit the people of Earth. This is because in the near zero gravity of space, these products would be purer and better for the benefit of all humanity. This is only the beginning. We will be mining near Earth asteroids (NEAs) and the surface of the Moon for minerals, common and rare on Earth and set up whole new industries to manufacture everything from computer chips to space ships, and harness the sun for unlimited energy in space and on Earth, solving our energy problems as well.There will be many types of energy sources, just like there will be more sources of food, (yes, we can farm up there) and new types of settlements like O’Neill space habitats.In order to be able to have access to all this, we will need space transportation, with easy access for all, with not only rockets and spaceships from Earth, but way stations in Earth orbit for spaceships to dock and transfer to other ships for travel to the Moon, asteroids, and other types of colonies, factories, and industrial parks. There will be heavy industry in space.There will be a need for law enforcement. We would not only need traffic cops, but law enforcement officials to deal with criminals such as white collar criminals, preying on industries, all the way to space pirates, and they will exist.Other obstacles to space settlement will be zero gravity and solar and cosmic radiation, for the human body needs to be protected from these dangers. Ways do exist even now to shield humans from these threats and to adjust the human body to zero gravity, and these will be useful especially to the physically disabled from Earth.Space debris poses a real problem here, but it is salvag
