09. How long will it take for space to have the buildings and technology that we have on Earth? (A K2S Question)

From The Space Library

Space will never be just like Earth—Earth is a very unique place. However, in 20 years a few people could be living there in spacesuits and in cities that feel like it does here on Earth. In 50 years we should have more extensive towns in space where people will be working and playing. The time frame really depends on what we want to do—it is up to us to decide.
