Episode 5 of the Habitable Planets Series takes a look at double planets and what sort of conditions would prevail, or need to prevail, for them to be Earth-like. As well as the Rocheworld, a special case of Double Planets where the two planets either share an atmosphere or have even begun to merge together.

Note: make sure to set units of both bodies to Earth Mass and period to hours or days if trying to look at double planet cases.

HP05 - Double Planets And Rocheworlds

By contemplating the idea of what true Kardashev 2 and 3 civilizations might look like, in the context of Megastructures, we re-assess the Fermi Paradox and come up with a new question, no longer "Why can't we see any alien civilizations?" but why we can see any stars in the night sky at all.

FP02 - Dyson Dilemma

This episode begins a three-part series focusing more on the specifics of colonization including human aspect of it. We lay the groundwork by looking at colonies just in our solar system before moving off in episodes two and three to look at life on colony ships and then on interstellar colonies.

Life In A Space Colony Episode 1

Space is an awesome place filled with virtually infinite wonders to explore, and human colonization will likely make far more. It may soon be possible for people to journey up to orbit as tourists, and in the more distant future this might become a vast trade, with tourism in Space Station Hotels or on the Moon or Mars or traveling to countless other planets, moons, asteroids, or megastructures.

Space Tourism

Science fiction delights in showing us brave adventurers boarding abandoned spaceships, exploring ancient alien worlds and space hulks, or surviving on planets turned into giant garbage dumps, but how realistic is this idea? And what sort of civilizations and cultures might spring up around such efforts?

Space Derelicts

The Fermi Paradox, the big question of where all the aliens are, has many proposed solutions focusing on what might lower the odds of intelligent species arising on another world, or what might end technological civilizations or cause them to go unseen by us and our SETI efforts. But what if intelligence rarely leads to technological civilizations in the first place? Could there be countless planets in our galaxy occupied by species who never came to value technology?

The Fermi Paradox: Rare Technology

From the most basic rockets to future ships designed for interstellar or even intergalactic flight, spaceship design is all about mission purpose, available technology, and keeping your crew safe and comfortable.

Spaceship Design

The Fermi Paradox asks why we don't see any alien civilizations with our SETI efforts. The Late Filters are common solution suggested, that intelligent species may often arise but either destroy themselves or unwilling or incapable of interstellar travel to reach new worlds and colonize the galaxy.

The Fermi Paradox: Late Filters

As we pioneer our way out from Earth to other planets and eventual the stars, our concept of time will change in more ways than just different calendars. We'll explore how interstellar civilizations might cope with everything from relativity to life extension and how century long voyages and time lags of communication over millions of worlds might be managed.

Interstellar Civilizations and Time

The Moon is covered in vast numbers of craters, some larger than entire Earth-based Nations, which may serve as dome habitats for humanity's future space colonies. But what would a crater city colony be like?
