How NASA Could Build A Cloud City Over Venus

“Owing to the extreme conditions on the Venusian surface, it's going to be quite some time before a human ever steps foot on that planet. That's why NASA is developing a plan to deploy human-occupied airships in Venus's upper atmosphere. And yes, permanent occupation is the ultimate goal.”

I've heard of all of these, but it's still awesome to hear them again. It's nice knowing that I live in a time where at least two of these concepts are possible and can happen in my lifetime.

I'm only 18, but it sucks that in my lifetime I'll never really get to see humans move to another planet. Sure there's that Mars One mission. But that's only a handful of people. I want to see some mind blowing shit like an entire country of humans living on another planet.

I want the havoc thing to happen in my lifetime so bad. I don't give a shit about mars but living in a sky city on Venus sounds awesome to me.
