Cover Story: This paper, entitled “Beyond Earth: Harnessing Marine Resources for Sustainable Space Colonization”, explores how marine organisms and their bioactive compounds can address critical challenges of space colonization. By integrating marine and space sciences, this review highlights the potential of algae, invertebrates, and microorganisms in life support systems, food production, pharmaceuticals, energy, and materials in terms of space habitats. With Earth’s oceans offering untapped potential, marine biotechnology emerges as a pivotal tool for humanity's expansion into space. This work envisions a future where humans not only survive but thrive beyond Earth, propelled by the innovative use of marine resources in the final frontier. View this paper
