Nourishment for the wondering mind. Thank you

Yeah, space is cool, but when I see images like this, in the back of my mind mostly I think, "We can't get there from here, and when the day comes that we _can_, we won't be able to return." Basically, my advice is to enjoy the photographs and enjoy the knowledge we gain.

ChipArgyle Your opinion sounds like an echo of the Europeans before they crossed the Atlantic. And they had even less reason for optimism than any potentially spacefaring civilization would, bec they weren't even sure there was an undiscovered frontier out there. Our species might never have made it out of Africa without this deep seeded need to explore and take risks.

That's OK, just sit there, the rest of us will do the work to get there. Just don't ask for a ride off the planet when it turns to shit.

[@ChipArgyle]

Who's turning the planet to shit again? If we colonize another planet, what will happen to it? I think I'll call your argument "The Muslim Migration Plan for Outer Space".
