Living on The Moon- Years 2100 and Beyond

Attributed to rapid technological advancements in the 21st century, it is not a surprise that concerns such as global warming and overpopulation have incited the the possibility for relocation in the year 2100.Whilst I believe that the significant majority of society will remain living on Earth, it would be most likely true for there to be development and research on The Moon .

By 2100, there will be rapid, cheap and safe access to The Moon, allowing human beings to freely commute between the two locations.Indeed, in contrast to views of how far away The Moon is from Earth in contemporary society, on the basis of efficient transportation, human beings would not be astounded by the notion of travelling to The Moon and rather be constantly expecting faster and more efficient means of travel.

There would be a multiplicity of moon colonies that would be entirely livable and potentially serve as homes for human beings. By virtue of the south polar region having more access to water, it would be more likely that the bulk of these colonies would be located in this vicinity.If need be, thousands of new homes could be built in mere days and relocation would no longer be out of the question.

The Moon would now be a core component of the tourism industry and people would flood in daily to experience life outside of Earth. Undoubtedly, the Apollo landing sites would go down as a historical landmark, allowing human beings to see and appreciate the very beginnings of history on The Moon.

Last but not least, human beings have now completely mastered gravity on The Moon as genetic engineering has allowed people to adapt comfortably to the gravity on The Moon from simulations on Earth.
