Autarky on Mars: Building a Self-Sufficient City Beyond Earth


Listen Later

Dive into Casey Handmer’s vision of turning Mars into a thriving, self-reliant civilization. We unpack the scale of the challenge—oxygen, energy, and the production bottleneck—and the two engines for success: rapid population growth and unprecedented efficiency, powered by robotics, AI, on-site manufacturing, and Earth–Mars collaboration. Along the way, we explore the social, ethical, and logistical hurdles of creating a new society on the Red Planet.
