Space manufacturing facilities: Space colonies; Proceedings of the Princeton Conference, Princeton University, Princeton, N.J., May 7-9, 1975Reports submitted to the conference encompass: administration and law relating to inhabited space facilities and colonies; space manufacturing and processing; organization and construction of space habitats and management of space colony farms; winning and acquisition of lunar and asteroidal materials for sustaining autonomous space colonies. Attention is given to trajectories between earth, low earth orbit, earth-moon libration points (specifically L5), circumlunar parking orbits, and trajectories in translunar space; effects of low gravity and zero gravity on human physiology and on materials processing; architecture and landscaping for space colonies; closed ecosystems of space colonies. Varieties of human cultures and value hierarchies around the earth are examined for broader perspectives on the social organization of space colonies.
