  aThis essay by Julie Michelle Klinger is an excerpt of New Geographies 11: Extraterrestrial by Jeffrey S. Nesbit and Guy Trangoš.  aThe status of outer space as the final frontier is a cultural fetish. What a given culture fetishizes reveals the blind spots of power in specific times and places. That outer space should even be considered a frontier is a recent historical phenomenon that reflects the fusion of political power with techno-optimism, and it is far from final. But the temporal horizon of finality speaks to the desires felt among putative winners and losers alike under postatomic capitalism to transcend the brutalities of our age while preserving the status quo.00aCapitalism00aEnergy and sustainability00aPolitics and economics00aurban growth00aCultural agitator40uhttps://urbannext.net/space-is-not-the-final-frontier/zAccess to info
