Social Life on Distant Alien Worlds. 330 $aAt the intersection of astronautics, computer science, and social science, this book introduces the challenges and insights associated with computer simulation of human society in outer space, and of the dynamics of terrestrial enthusiasm for space exploration. Never before have so many dynamic representations of space-related social systems existed, some deeply analyzing the logical implications of social-scientific theories, and others open for experience by the general public as computer-generated virtual worlds. Fascinating software ranges from multi-agent artificial intelligence models of civilization, to space-oriented massively multiplayer online games, to educational programs suitable for schools or even for the world's space exploration agencies. At the present time, physical spaceflight endures a problematic intermission, when computer simulations of space societies are an excellent way to prepare for a renaissance of exploration beyond the bounds of Earth. 410 0$aSpace and Society,$x2199-3882 606 $aApplication software 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aSociology 606 $aSpace sciences 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aUser interfaces (Computer systems) 606 $aComputer Appl. in Social and Behavioral Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I23028 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aSociological Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22060 606 $aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030 606 $aSimulation and Modeling$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I19000 606 $aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18067 615 0$aApplication software. 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSpace sciences. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 0$aUser interfaces (Computer systems) 615 14$aComputer Appl. in Social and Behavioral Sciences. 615 24$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aSociological Theory. 615 24$aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics). 615 24$aSimulation and Modeling. 615 24$aUser Interfaces and Human Computer Interaction. 676 $a004 700 $aBainbridge$b William Sims$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0868695 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299269103321 996 $aComputer Simulations of Space Societies$92288987 997 $aUNINA
