Emigrating Beyond Earth puts space colonization into the context of
human evolution. Rather than focusing on the technologies and
strategies needed to colonize space, the authors examine the human
and societal reasons for space colonization. They make space
colonization seems like a natural step by demonstrating that if
will continue the human species' 4 million-year-old legacy of
adaptation to difficult new environments. The authors present many
examples from the history of human expansion into new environments,
including two amazing tales of human colonization - the prehistoric
settlement of the upper Arctic around 5,000 years ago and the
colonization of the Pacific islands around 3,000 years ago - which
show that space exploration is no more about rockets and robots
that Arctic exploration was about boating!
