Oliver Morton explains the Applied Astrobiology segment in Dhaka matters: an election for Bangladesh. He presents terraforming and habitability as questions of engineered ecosystems rather than only planetary imagination.

The source uses his segment to connect biology with Space Economy Infrastructure. Space stations, Moon bases, and Mars missions would require more closed or semi-closed biological systems for food, pharmaceuticals, waste handling, and material feedstocks; the near-term work is finding microbes and bioreactors that can use lunar or Martian raw materials.
