As this is a podcast all about the trends shaping the future, we can’t go past space colonisation. So, is living in space a realistic possibility or is our Jetson’s fantasy just that - science fiction?

Today on the podcast, Dr Ben Hamer breaks down the history of our fascination with the moon and space travel, and whether we could be living on Mars one day.

Recommendations:
An article about how NASA plans to send astronauts to Mars in 2030 and how they’ll make it happen
An interview with one of the people who did the year-long Mars simulation
