Do you think people will ever live in Space? If not, why not? If so, where will they live and how will they do it?
I do not think it is possible for people to live in Space mainly because it is difficult and costly. Access of oxygen (there cannot be continuous supply of oxygen in the shuttle), disposal of waste, supply of water, shelter, clothing are some of the basic reasons. These are easily availble on Earth but not in Space. It will be difficult because of reasons such as lack of space to move about (because people who venture into space will have to live in a shuttle or a space station). It is not possible for adding a new space to live in.
Living in space may sound exciting but not just any person can fly to space. They need to be astronauts (excluding Richard Branson's idea of taking 410 people on a flight to space). This means that children cannot fly to space. Where will they get education from if they fly to space? How will they survive the launch from earth?
It is also time consuming because people wishing to live in space must survive a series of tests thrown at them. Moreover, I have no reason why people would choose to live in space. Till date there is only one couple living in space and I think they will be coming back to the earth soon (if they haven't returned yet). Space may seem as an option if "the earth ends" but I think it is impossible even for a group of people to live in space till their lives end.
