书籍简介

地球陷入了麻烦——如此严重，以至于我们现在都在争先恐后地探索太空，寻找有价值的资源和*久定居的家园。随着NASA主导时代的结束，私营部门正在赢得这场新的太空竞赛。但如果人类和他们的私人财富把地球弄得一团糟，谁能说我们不会在太空中做同样的事情呢?

在相应的前沿领域，商业和技术记者彼得·沃德(Peter Ward)在为时未晚之前提出了这个至关重要的问题。沃德采访了科技公司的首席执行官、发明家、科学家、说客、政治家和未来的民用宇航员，让我们了解了整个行业，而不仅仅是像贝佐斯和马斯克这样引人注目的火箭亿万富翁，还介绍了新一代试图阻止该行业鲁莽地进入宇宙的积极分子。

沃德乐观地认为，如果我们能把放松管制、不平等和环境破坏的趋势抛在身后，人类可能在太空中取得的成就将会是怎样的。他向我们展示，保护我们的普遍资源需要多少合作，这对我们所有人都有多大好处。

Earth is in trouble—so dramatically that we’re now scrambling to explore space for valuable resources and a home for permanent colonization. With the era of NASA’s dominance now behind us, the private sector is winning this new space race. But if humans and their private wealth have made such a mess of Earth, who can say we won’t do the same in space?

In The Consequential Frontier, business and technology journalist Peter Ward is raising this vital question before it’s too late. Interviewing tech CEOs, inventors, scientists, lobbyists, politicians, and future civilian astronauts, Ward sheds light on a whole industry beyond headline-grabbing rocket billionaires like Bezos and Musk, and introduces the new generation of activists trying to keep it from rushing recklessly into the cosmos.

With optimism for what humans might accomplish in space if we could leave our tendency toward deregulation, inequality, and environmental destruction behind, Ward shows just how much cooperation it will take to protect our universal resource and how beneficial it could be for all of us.
