Hello, welcome to Habitation Intention, a blog about the expansion of humanity past Earth and onto the universe.
Who am I?
I am a high school senior, 17 years old. I'm also not a doctor, DrBurst is just my Pseudonym. I've had a fairly successful blog before called College Intention, but I deleted that blog due to the topic. I'm in the works of building danielcsims.com and I'm a AIAA (American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics) member. I hope to major in Mechanical Engineering and my dream is to become a leader in the Space Habitation field.
Why I'm blogging?
I am primarily blogging because I want to do something in the space field during my college years, this was my best idea. I want to document my discovers in this field as I begin my career and share what I've learned. I also want to help others get into this field.
What is my topic?
This blog will focus on space habitation. I want to focus on the need for space habitation and not space colonization. Habitation means
1. a place of residence; dwelling; abode.
2. the act of inhabiting; occupancy by inhabitants.
3. a colony or settlement; community: Each of the scattered habitations consisted of a small number of huts.

whereas, colonization is associated with the economic exploitation of an area. I want to make the point that we need to focus on getting off earth. Not focus solely on the economic benefit of earth, but the economic benefit of those living off earth. I will also discuss space habitation in general.
