Welcome to Future Space World, a place where we connect the present with the future.
Can we manipulate gravity? Humans have desired to control gravity since the days of Isaac Newton in 1687. However, it was not until the early 1990s that scientists began to move closer to attempting this groundbreaking discovery. In 1992, Dr. Eugene Podkletnov, a Russian chemist and materials scientist, revealed that he had observed a small…
Whenever a spaceship leaves Earth’s atmosphere and flies into space, it tends to operate in a region of microgravity. Astronauts aboard the spaceship will surely experience several disadvantages associated with the microgravity environment of space. This is where artificial gravity comes in to simulate Earth’s gravitational pull (9.807 m/s²) in weightlessness. If we can possibly…
As we approach the future of building cities on the moon and Mars, we will likely see the need to establish the first space government and create laws for humans living in these futuristic cities. Currently aboard the International Space Station, astronauts from various countries are conducting multiple missions. Several countries have come together to…
Ever since Elon Musk founded SpaceX in 2002, he intended to send humans and cargo to Mars as soon as possible. However, in February 2026, Musk announced that SpaceX is now shifting its vision from visiting Mars to building a self-sustaining city on the moon. He revealed that building a colony on the moon will…
If you have seen the Pale Blue Dot image of Earth, you may have always wondered about the inspiring story behind it. The Pale Blue Dot is simply an image of Earth captured by NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft on Feb. 14, 1990. However, we would not have seen such an inspiring image if not for…
NASA’s Curiosity rover, operating on Mars since 2012 just cracked open a rock on Mars to discover something out of this world. The cracked Martian rock contains a yellowish treasure that amazes scientists. So, how did Curiosity find and crack this Martian rock? What could the yellowish treasure be? Continue reading to find out. How…
Unlike a Type I or K1 civilization that can control only planetary energies, a Type 2 civilization has advanced enough that they now have the capability to control their solar system. This advanced civilization can harness the solar power output of a star, and possibly travel to other solar systems to build and harness their…
Have you ever imagined a future where humans would explore space with spaceships powered by antimatter? Of course, many people will call this a utopian dream. However, some scientists have already proven the theoretical possibility of an antimatter rocket. Aside from the theoretical findings, can we actually create and use antimatter rockets in the future?…
Imagine the future where human civilization builds gigantic Dyson spheres around the Sun that will capture most of its output power. The possibility of this would enable our civilization to use our star’s great solar power output to advance technologically and commence with interstellar crewed space travel to conquer other stars. Suppose we were able…
Attaining interstellar space travel appears quite impossible to many people. However, most of these people who don’t believe in the future of going interstellar are yet to realize how fast we are progressing as a civilization. We have already sent two spacecraft into the Interstellar space. Voyager 1, the first humanmade object to leave the…
