Humanity has been performing scientific research in space for decades. We have learned huge amounts about how the human body adapts to space, how plants grow and animals live in space, and how the changes in fundamental physical forces lead to differences in flames, fluids, mixing of molecules, and more. Yet we have barely begun to harness the full opportunities afforded by this incredible environment.
While cats enjoy hunting, free-roaming outdoor cats have a lifespan of just 2–5 years (versus 12–15 years indoors). They face cars, predators, and diseases. Furthermore, they decimate local wildlife, causing a welfare crisis for birds. Responsible welfare means supervised outdoor time ("catios") or leash training, not unfettered roaming.
True pet ownership goes far beyond providing a bowl of food and a place to sleep. It is a lifelong commitment to an animal’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This guide explores the pillars of responsible pet care and the broader principles of animal welfare.
“Ninety-five percent of what we’re trying to do is to benefit people on Earth. I never thought I’d be working with people headed to space; yet here we are.”
