El futuro de la humanidad

Our existence is threatened: glaciations, asteroid impacts, the finite capacity of the Earth and even the distant but inevitable death of the Sun are risks of such magnitude that, if we do not leave the Earth, we will have to assume the idea of ??our extinction. For this reason, for Michio Kaku our destiny lies in the stars, not because of the curiosity or the adventurous passion that humans carry inside, but because of a simple question of survival. In The Future of Humanity, Dr. Michio Kaku explores the steps necessary to achieve this ambitious goal, and describes the technologies that will allow us to colonize and terraform other planets, as well as explore the infinite stars of the universe. Throughout these pages we will learn about self-replicating robots, nanomaterials, and bioengineered crops that will allow us to leave our planet; about nanometer ships, laser sails, ram-jet fusion machines, antimatter engines and hyperdrive rockets that will take us to the stars, and the radical technologies that will alter our bodies in order to survive the long and exhausting journey towards conquering space.
