Soft cover. Etat : Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. SIGNED First Edition Softbound in Near Fine Condition. SIGNED on title page by Gerard K. O'Neill (1927-1992) Princeton physicist & professor & inspiration to Princeton student Jeff Bezos who thinks humans should avoid other planets and live in giant cylindrical space stations… when colonizing the solar system. Bezos envisions a trillion people living in the solar system. With that many people, Bezos said, we would have "1,000 Mozarts and 1,000 Einsteins" at any given time, adding that the solar system would be "full of life and intelligence and energy." While the resources in the solar system can "easily support" that kind of civilization, it would only be possible by living in "giant space stations," Bezos said. "Planetary surfaces are just way too small," he explained, adding that we would be able to make use of much more energy and physical resources in space than we would on Earth or other planets. Such space stationsoften called O'Neill cylinders or colonies after the physicist who proposed them, Gerard K. O'Neillhave many advantages over planetary living, Bezos said, notably the ability to spin them to get "normal Earth gravity" and "put them where you want them."
