The concept achieved fruition by the late 20th century. In the not-too-distant future, we may be seeing rotating wheels and cylinders in space that can accommodate the "Great Migration" of people to space.______________________ResourcesSpace Station 20th: Historical Origins of ISS (NASA): https://www.nasa.gov/history/space-station-20th-historical-origins-of-iss/The First Space Stations (National Air and Space Museum): https://airandspace.si.edu/stories/editorial/first-space-stations______________________For more podcast Stories from Space with Matthew S Williams, visit: https://itspmagazine.com/stories-from-space-podcast

But what does the science say about them? In truth, scientists have been exploring the idea for over a century and there is some basis for their existence. Whether or not we'll ever be able to use them, however, is still up for debate.______________________ResourcesWhat are Wormholes?: https://www.space.com/20881-wormholes.html______________________For more podcast Stories from Space with Matthew S Williams, visit: https://itspmagazine.com/stories-from-space-podcast

Are Red Dwarf Star Systems Habitable? | Stories From Space Podcast With Matthew S Williams

This includes Proxima b (the closest exoplanet to our Solar System). But red dwarfs are known for being temperamental and prone to flares. As a result, the debate continues as to whether or not planets orbiting these stars could support life.______________________ResourcesCould Earth Life Survive on a Red Dwarf Planet? - Universe Today: https://www.universetoday.com/166157/could-earth-life-survive-on-a-red-dwarf-planet/Red Dwarf Stars Might Be Able to Hold Onto Their Atmospheres After All - Universe Today: https://www.universetoday.com/169037/red-dwarf-stars-might-be-able-to-hold-onto-their-atmospheres-after-all/______________________For more podcast Stories from Space with Matthew S Williams, visit: https://itspmagazine.com/stories-from-space-podcast

Since before the Space Age, several concepts have been proposed. As we enter a new era of space exploration, many of these concepts are being reconsidered. But which are feasible and could reach another star in our lifetimes?______________________ResourcesHow Long Would It Take To Travel To The Nearest Star?: https://www.universetoday.com/15403/how-long-would-it-take-to-travel-to-the-nearest-star/______________________For more podcast Stories from Space with Matthew S Williams, visit: https://itspmagazine.com/stories-from-space-podcast

His research focuses on exoplanets and the search for life in the cosmos (astrobiology). In a recent research paper, he and his colleagues recommend how studying polarized light from exoplanets could allow future observatories like the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) to find evidence of life on other worlds!______________________ResourcesPolarized Signatures of the Earth Through Time: An Outlook for the Habitable Worlds Observatory: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2410.02194______________________For more podcast Stories from Space with Matthew S Williams, visit: https://itspmagazine.com/stories-from-space-podcast
