Space waste recycling, orbital recycling station, and collector drones
In the mid-2020s, mankind faced the problem of space pollution, which became exacerbated after an accident on the ISS that caused the crew to be evacuated. The US and China stopped at nothing to try to solve the problem. The US created collector drones designed to scoop up and deliver useful waste to

Spaceport
Morocco’s location close to the Equator made it possible to construct a compact spaceport not far from Marrakesh. It is used mostly to transport astronauts and cargo to asteroids. Civil flights also depart from the orbit; there is always entertainment there, as well as excursions, study, and exploration

An asteroid base
By 2040, the international community has concluded that using nonrenewable resources is irrational. The first kind of asteroid to be mined was of the carbonaceous variety, to get water that can keep astronauts alive, or be used to create rocket fuel. Later, explorers prospected dozens of other varieties

The future of Morocco
In 2030, all phosphate reserves used for agricultural fertilization in the world are running out. The phosphate crisis is worse than the oil crises of the 20th century. Iraq and Algeria, large players in the phosphate market, drastically reduce their mining in an attempt to control prices. The

Lunar Supercomputing Facilities
The principle known as Landauer's Limit says that the maximum theoretical efficiency of a computer is directly related to its temperature. A computer operating at seven degrees Kelvin is about 100 times as efficient as one operating at room temperature on Earth. This makes it easier to build computers

Spin Gravity & Space Hotels
By 2050 there will be a space station with a section under rotation to produce artificial gravity by centrifugal spin. The first one is likely to simulate either Moons or Mars gravity to test the long term health effects of low gravity, and likely be partially funded by or later converted over to a space

3D printing ecosystem in space
The actual launch of objects to orbit will be improved by using electromagnetic railguns to put raw materials into orbit, those materials won’t be affected by the huge accelerations and temperature changes of those kind of launches, and the cost will fall ten fold. Once in space, enormous 3D printers

A sustainable civilization of humans on Mars
About 15 years ago, Elon Musk started a rocket company with a single, clear, corporate mission: to create a sustainable civilization of humans on Mars. The company is singularly focused on this idea and many of the people who choose to work there do so because they want to see humans on Mars as soon

New methods of mineral extraction
The usual method of mining will be out of favor. Thanks to the development of spacecraft and the application of new technologies, mineral-rich meteorites will be delivered from the asteroid and Kuiper belts. Alongside extracting minerals from lumps of rock and capturing stones directly at the station,

Setting the power industry straight
In 2050, people will come to realize that the pursuit of a high octane rating has destroyed the planet's ecology. Earth must either be restored or abandoned. Since the second option will not yet be feasible, all scientific and material resources will go towards restoring our damaged world. The

Lunar development is a profitable enterprise
The Moon is a gold mine for hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs. A system of lunar cultivation (communications, transport, production), provisionally called RosLuna, will be built to meet the needs of small businesses, which will collectively provide major orders for industry.

Fired into orbit
Whether or not a space elevator can ever be built remains to be seen. However, it is possible to create a system to minimize the cost of delivering cargo. Theoretically, such a system is already doable for unmanned small satellites. It requires a vacuum tube with electromagnetic accelerator guideways.

World's first space elevator opens
Space is said to be the final frontier. But at $10,000 simply to put a shuttle into low-Earth orbit, the struggles seem monumental in light of the risk-reward payoff. However, after 30-odd years of construction, a 35,786 km steel cable is erected in Haro Strait, off the coast of Vancouver Island. An
