“We might just as easily find a way to escape into the past, rather than deep space.”
Interplanetary space in our own Solar System is deep space, and we are already using many unmanned spacecraft to explore deep space. The establishment of a manned station on an asteroid is not much more difficult than sending humans to the International Space Station (ISS). Over time humans would begin to make permanent habitats in the asteroids, and some of those asteroids were serve as routine transports to the outer Solar System along eccentric Solar orbits. As more and more human habitats become established among the asteroids, industries and economies would come into existence that drastically reduce the economic costs of production and transportation of goods and service required by those communities.
