However, to habitate?to dwell in a place?implies more than creature comforts in order to adapt. Human factors research must also include a phenomenological perspective ? an understanding of how we experience the places we live in ? in order for a community to be robust and to thrive.   The first phase of migration will be an especially tenuous one requiring intensive technological intervention. The modes by which those technologies are implemented will have significant bearing on the process of human adaptation: the nature of the mediation can be either one of domination, subordination, avoidance, or integration. Ultimately, adaptation is best ensured if symbiotic processes of negotiation and cooperation between subject and environment are espoused over acts of conquest or acquiescence.   These adaptive mechanisms will have wider implications for long-range human evolution. Migration to extraterrestrial environments will be unequivocally the most profound catalyst for evolution in the history of humankind?not only for the human species itself but also for the new environments we will eventually inhabit. At the same time, humans are also?via a new generation of bio-, nano-, and digital technologies?in the position to consciously and willfully direct evolution. Technology has always been transformative, but in the not-so-distant future, humans will soon possess the capacity for radical re-invention in almost any way conceivable. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aInterior architecture 606 $aInteriors 606 $aSpace sciences 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aInterior Architecture and Design$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K15007 606 $aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aInterior architecture. 615 0$aInteriors. 615 0$aSpace sciences. 615 14$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aInterior Architecture and Design. 615 24$aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics). 676 $a629.442 700 $aLockard$b Elizabeth Song$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0875350 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299742703321 996 $aHuman Migration to Space$91954338 997 $aUNINA
