Robotics for conquest of space

Sending robots into space is costly,too!

Do you have a personal robot yet? The group I have seen using these devices the most so far is the military. For some reason, they can afford it.

If we ever get around to colonizing space openly, I am sure robots will play a big part. They can be built to stand up to off-planet conditions a lot better than humans.

But if you want a cheap, fairly workable way to EXPLORE space, I suggest getting more people to develop the ability to go exterior (out of body). You heard me right. People are learning to do it. If all you want to do is go and look, then leave your body in bed, and just go look. I know I am oversimplifying the process, but it's no joke. People have been doing it for a long time, and more could learn how. You can learn to do it awake in a session, like the remote viewers, or by various other methods where your body does not participate as much.

It's a good, energy-efficient exploratory method. It just needs more people to master it.

Of course, the ramifications of this need to be further explored. But it seems like a more realistic approach to the problem than raising billions of dollars for a space launch and off-planet habitat.
