==Colonization==
Did the Encyclopedia literally state that humans settled on Luna, Mars and the Jovian Moons within a single year? I'm asking this because I would assume that colonization of other planets is a slow, deliberate process that needs to be done gradually. Does it really make sense that we'd just colonize every possible world right away without first trying it out on the Moon and then Mars? Not to mention the logistical problems that come with colonizing 3+ worlds at the same time with limited resources. Again, humanity has no prior experience on interplanetary colonization at this point. I don't think the most plausible idea at a situation like this is just to go in and start settling every possible planet/moon in the system.

Now, if the Encyclopedia says the humans began settling all of the aforementioned worlds within the 2080's, that makes more sense, though I think even a single decade is a stretch. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 18:21, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

:That basically says that they settled on there with in the same time period, but I don't think we should take it literally. It could just refer to the time period that major colonization efforts went under way, because "settle" is a very loose term. User:Sgt.T.N.Biscuits

::That's what I thought. The article seems to give the impression that they literally colonized all of them within that year. From that, it seems that the year 2080 marks the beginning of extraterrestrial colonization - most likely beginning on Luna. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 18:32, September 6, 2010 (UTC)

==Satellite nation==
On the topic of Colonization in the Encyclopedia page 42 under Galactic Expansion it implies the Commercial companies pushed for off world Colonization as to a get away from restrictions of international law and basic gravity. Do any of you think that Private companies made the first Satellite Cities on these first worlds. Theory >Companies construct a factories along with Urban planning a Social structure around their economical baseline.< its kind of like Bio Shock with Andrew Ryan and Rapture. Man with money or Companies seek political freedom and set the foundations of off world societies that take off and flourish then get absorbed back into the government bodies they sought to avoid or part of some political contract with less restrictions in trade for political presence off world.  I would like to hear feed back on my lil theory and curiosity on who started colonization and if any known ships were used during the very first efforts.--[[User talk:RussellofSwinhart|RussellofSwinhart]] 02:25, 23 June 2011 (EDT)

:I think of it more along the lines of Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy - companies set up small settlements to kick-start industry to bring in money. But the people there, they aren't just company assets to be used until they are discarded. They bring their families with them, or start new ones. And company settlements turn into real towns, with shops, homes, recreational parks. And eventually, the company shuts down, moves away, leaving the town and all its people to forge a path ahead on their own. It's what has already happened right across our own planet. Except, sometimes, the companies overstay their welcome. They insist that they own the town, and that its inhabitants live there by their grace. But the settlers happen to disagree. And then suddenly we have the roots of the Jovian Moons campaign that is yet to come. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 01:13, 24 June 2011 (EDT)
