But regardless of our efforts Earth won’t last forever, now mind you this won’t affect our generation or many of the future ones. In my opinion we should explore space now, so that when it comes down to the time when future generations NEED to leave Earth humans will have already set up places for them to go, and have some experience living in space. Space may very well be a hard place to live but… if humans can build up the courage to blow them selves up for radical religious movements, I think we can tough it out in Space.
