Yeah, well, the leather uniforms look too butch Azov for my liking. The aerodynamic shape of the spaceship is silly too. Air resistance is non existent.

Such ideas have gone before, but I'm not much of a movie goer, though worship of Stanley Kubrick is reasonable. Including Dr Strangelove and 2001 Space Odyssey.

Elon is barking up the wrong tree with making people multi planetary... vast 1000 km diameter space ships are the way to go Heck, maybe even10,000 km to make a LOT of room.

Planets are useful only for raw materials. Living on Mars would be worse than living in the Sahara or Death Valley. The south of France is just a ferry ride from Sahara. No loveliness on Mars

Mining asteroids is probably much easier as no gravity. Get out into the asteroid belt to do construction..

A big risk for living on Earth is asteroid impact. Deflecting them is easier than moving to another target.
