Which alternate living environment would you choose?
The scuba thread made me think of my youth and all of the optimism about mankind living somewhere besides land.
Imagine that mankind's population is exploding, and technology is allowing us to live in other environments. You're in a group that is due to be reassigned from traditional land-based dwellings, and you get your choice. Which do you choose? In all cases, assume that you're living in a habitat the supports roughly 30,000 people. Poll to follow as soon as architectural technology allows. Last edited by Rain Man; 06-15-2021 at 07:01 PM.. |

By technology….do you mean like a breathable dome underwater? What about up in the clouds?
Is there a chance I could die in these places because of my own stupidity? |

Well, there's always a chance that we could die because of our own stupidity.

I mean...the on-water floating city basically means you live on an island. I'll go with that. Sunshine, shorelines. I can walk and breath and feel the sun on my skin without the need for a space suit or air tank. The only competitor is the cloud city. I'm sure it'd be cool for a couple of days, but if we're talking living someplace indefinitely I'll take the floating ocean city.

I would definitely choose the cloud city. I’d imagine if the air quality for breathing is good it would be fantastic.
Most bugs would never be able to make it up there. Sign me up
