| Video Discription | Until now, most researchers have considered the Moon or Mars as the ideal targets for the first step in colonizing our solar system. These destinations have the dual advantage of being close enough to Earth and presenting surface environments that are not entirely hostile to current technological capabilities. Among other possible destinations, Mercury is too close to the Sun, with extreme temperatures and other physical conditions that seem difficult to overcome. Venus is much closer, but its atmosphere is poisonous, extremely heavy, and scorching due to uncontrolled greenhouse effects. However, even though the Moon and Mars may seem like relatively reasonable destinations, they also have fundamental problems. Neither of these planets is protected by a magnetic field or a significant atmosphere, which would force any future colonizers to live in underground shelters to protect themselves from deadly cosmic radiation. And just so you know, is there anyone among you who would want to go to a brand new world only to spend their life in an underground tunnel? In fact, this is a problem for which no solution has been found, so much so that more than a few expert planetologists have recently begun to suggest that the ideal goal to attempt to build the first human colony is neither the Moon nor the Red Planet... but Titan, Saturn's large moon! The atmosphere of Titan shields the surface from cosmic radiation. Without an atmosphere dense enough to protect their surface from solar radiation, especially galactic cosmic radiation, any colony would ideally have to be located underground. You wouldn't need a pressurized suit on Titan's surface. Most rocky planets and all other moons in the solar system have little more than traces of an atmosphere. Even Mars' atmosphere is little denser than a typical laboratory vacuum here on Earth. Titan hosts the richest nitrogen atmosphere in the solar system. Titan hosts the richest known nitrogen atmosphere, so colonists would only need to add oxygen, using the existing nitrogen as a buffer, to create breathable air. Titan has rivers, lakes, and seas. Titan is the only object in the solar system, apart from Earth, known to host significant amounts of surface liquids. In fact, it showcases seas, rivers, lakes, and even rain and glaciers, just like our world. However, even though it's not visible, there is an abundance of water! At temperatures twice as cold as the coldest ever recorded on Earth, water on Titan's surface will be permanently frozen and as hard as granite. However, even though there isn't an internal salty ocean, there is still a lot of frozen water on the moon's surface and locked in the rocks below. The seas of Titan could provide polymers for construction. With its practically infinite supply of liquid and solid hydrocarbons, Titan also has everything colonists would need to build a permanent shelter. There is so much nitrogen in Titan's atmosphere that we could use it as fertilizer just like we do here on Earth. Although Titan is inhospitable in itself, it seems to contain everything needed to build a completely self-sufficient colony, which would be vital given its great distance from Earth (1.2 billion km). Resources Nearby: The Saturnian system hosts 62 moons and multiple rings composed of billions of icy particles. Although Titan represents almost all the mass orbiting Saturn and is by far the largest moon of the planet, the abundance of other bodies in the Saturnian system also presents significant economic and exploratory potential. We Could Even Fly There. By far the simplest and most economical way to explore Titan would be to simply put on a pair of wings and... fly! Due to its small size and low density, Titan has a surface gravity of only about 14% of that of Earth, which is slightly less than that of our Moon. -- DISCUSSIONS & SOCIAL MEDIA Commercial Purposes: Lorenzovareseaziendale@gmail.com Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@insanecuriosity Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/insanecuriosity Instagram: https://instagram.com/insanecuriositythereal Twitter: https://twitter.com/insanecurio Facebook: https://facebook.com/InsaneCuriosity Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/insane-curiosity-46b928277/ Our Website: https://insanecuriosity.com/ -- Credits: Ron Miller, Mark A.
