redshirt posted:Ganymede is bathed in Jovian radiation, and is differentiated, meaning getting water and minerals is significantly more difficult than on friendly Callisto. Callisto is great and all but Ganymede has a magnetosphere and we could tunnel into it and make pressurized habitats under the surface to shield us from what the magnetosphere doesn't.

Space Mining colony would honestly be cooler than living on some stupid rock that's constantly trying to kill me. Having a real job other than space farmer seems like a good time.

redshirt posted:Exactly. Run a resort town in the style of a bastardized version of Americana, where tourists can buy all sorts of touristy knickknacks like polished rocks and beer steins for a hefty markup. Then use the money to build on a basement module I never have to leave again so I can sit and watch esports and eat cheetos all day

It'll sneak in through your airlocks and get dragged in with your space boots. You'll need some industrial grade air fresheners to keep your fortress smelling nice and fresh.
