Time passed really fast today! Prof gave a briefing of the overview today and we went into a flux of group presentations which include:
Air Transport (My Group)
Space Junk
Land Conservation
Interesting Observations and Ideas
All the interesting ideas came from the group presentations!
First up... Space Junk
Hmm... how interesting if we could throw all the rubbish into space and clear up space for more development on Earth! This saves space, saves money and could even be potentially environmentally because we need not incinerate the rubbish anymore!
But given the greedy and exploitative nature of Mankind (unfortunately ><), we would be generating more rubbish than we should have simply because we think that no matter how much rubbish we create, there is always a venue to dispose it.
However, I think there are still huge potential about the technoloigcal aspects of space junk because afterall, the outer space is still a huge unknown to Mankind!
We could potential build many floating structures in outer space and re-create another Earth! I've seen a lot of such speculations in fiction and if Mankind is really working towards such a goal... I foresee many other impossibilities being made real!cause they are potentially dangerous.
Another interesting idea which is brought up during presentation is about land conservation! Ideas such as multiple land use (E.g. verticle farming and wind farms), verticle farming is suitable for more developed country which faces the problem of land constraints, wind farming is suitable for countries such as China. Singapore is also using vertical farming to large extent, especially with regards to its hydroponics vegetation.
I see much potential in this technology, especially in today's world where space is becoming increasing scarce due to massive and rapid development around the world.
Key Takeaways
1. What standard formatting REALLY means
2. Technology is really magic which makes the impossibilities possible...
Personal Rating
7/10
