[Q&A+] Enforcement of Space Treaties, Mars vs O'Neil Cylinders, India's Space Ambitions | Q&A 336

Kim Stanley Robinson’s Red Moon explores how the space treaty could play out on the moon. It’s a relatively small portion of the book but an interesting read overall.
Hi Fraser, look time viewer! first time question. What would you want has the next full successor to the ISS?
Hi Fraser. Now that we know Mars once had large bodies of water sloshing about on its surface, has limestone been discovered by any of the Mars rovers or orbiting satellites?

Yeah, there's an effect where strengthening one's position can paradoxically encourage attacks. For example, if China knew that the US was going to activate their Everything-Proof Shield tomorrow, they would have a strong incentive to use their nukes today, before they become useless.
Timing couldn’t be any better for the book recommendation, I was just looking earlier today for something along the lines of the Andy Weir books, Thank you!
Him and his cat? Please tell me that's a nod to Nethack
