If our planet becomes uninhabitable where would we go? NASA, National Aeronautics and Space Administration has already got to work on that. They believe it is possible to live on the moon! "Some people view it as ‘Space migration is essential to human survival,’” but what are the ups and downs to this plan?¹

This plan to migrate humans to the moon would cost over 100 billion dollars! Some see this plan as “A fantastic money waster that diverts resources from more practical research projects.”² That may seem a little dramatic, but remember just to get people up it costs millions! Not to mention that every pound of delivery cost 25,00 dollars!² Also, the moon isn't the safest place for human life to be. It can be as hot as 270 degrees or as cold as -22 degrees.¹ There is also no air outside the spaceships, radiation, and cosmic rays deep from space fly around out there! You also have to think of your mental and physical health, like the Space Adaptation Syndrome, (SAS), also known as space sickness, including nausea, dizziness, and headaches.¹ It’s hard to be safe so far from home.

Although space seems so terrifying, there are some good things about space migration; there are many, many, things in space that we do not know of! Also if the Earth becomes uninhabitable, we would need somewhere else to stay!

Space migration seems crazy, but in reality, in 50 years it could be a real thing!
