(prHWY.com) March 14, 2013 - Seattle, WA -- The recent launch of the robot Curiosity to Mars means that the world is one step closer to starting to build colonies in space. Building space colonies might be challenging, which is why experts believe that the first frontiers to space could benefit from using some of the software programs offered by 3PL Software.
"One of the biggest challenges about setting up space colonies are going to be keeping supplies on hand", said an expert in space colony formation. "There are going to be limited pick-ups and drop-offs of supplies. So it is essential that everyone knows what is on hand, what is running low, and other things. 3PL Software can help with that."
3PL Software creates warehouse management software programs that help large warehouses
keep track of their inventory from a remote online database. People who are setting up the space colonies could benefit from this type of technology as it would help them keep track of what is on hand in their supply warehouse.
"We believe that if space colonies do start to form that this type of technology could be beneficial", said the expert. "We could have people on Earth monitoring the databases, as well as on the space colony. This would make sure that no one ran out of food, grain, water, or other supplies."
Technology will be very important in the formation of space colonies. It will help those on the colonies communicate with Earth, report any problems, and help set the foundation for future space colonies.
"I think it would be extremely helpful to have this type of software", said an IT tech who is working on helping to form the first space colony. "This type of software can help us detect trends in the use of supplies. That can help us in the development of future colonies."
The need for this type of software is so essential that governments that are working on creating space colonies are including it in their startup pack. It is being budgeted into the price of the space colony.
"This type of technology is so essential that it's being included in the budget", said an anonymous source close to space colony projects. "That ought to tell you how important it is. It is something that people don't want to do without when it comes to space colonies. There were a lot of things cut from the budget, but not this technology."
