One way we can do this is through hydroponics. Applied solutions like vertical farming enables us to grow delicious, nutritious food and remove toxins from the air while using less soil and space. In New York, people are already experimenting with integrating vertical farms into human-inhabited skyscrapers, so farm-fresh food is just down the hallway!

That's because much of the technological innovations we enjoy today on Earth were researched and developed in space. In the last twenty years alone, there have been over 6,000 experiments conducted on the International Space Station.

In 2024, humans are planning on sending the first woman to the Moon, and in 2030 will have the first crewed mission on the surface of Mars. Now that we know how astronauts can survive, how can we create environments where they can thrive?


In this latest episode of Future Future, Phnam Bagley (Creative Director of Nonfiction and an actual Space Architect) and Mardis Bagley (Creative Director of Nonfiction and a Professor specializing in Sustainability) tell you why the future of space is bright, what we can expect, and what we need to do to get there.
