Peaceful exploration, settlement and exploitation of the space

Elon Musk affirms that "we have a moral obligation to colonize space to guarantee the continuity of the human species." But do we really have the right to do so? Miquel Sureda, physicist and aeronautical engineer specialized in space propulsion, spoke about peaceful exploration, colonization and exploitation of space with 4th year ESO students from the Institut Icària. A talk that gave rise to a rich and necessary debate on the morals and ethics of all this. For what purposes do you intend to use the space? How can we continue to cultivate knowledge and investigate new horizons without damaging our environment?
