better a kike than a super intelligent seemingly failproof general AI

if we can get off world, things might be ok

travel via space is always cheaper and faster than it is on earth due to the lack of air resistance, and so it will probably be the quickest rout to planetary infrastructure

since spaceX is kind of basing itself off of this idea among many others, there is a very good chance that we might actually get somewhere when it comes to having an opportunity to flee from a perpetual hellscape of our slowly decaying race

faster maybe, but cheaper?

surrounded by niggers

definitely cheaper

much, much cheaper

like a few hundred dollars cheap for a ride into orbit at its cheapest cheap

or to the moon

the vehicles and thrust required seem like an overkill for freight

never put all your eggs in one basket

like pullling a train with 5000 ferraris

there will never be a point where we have solved enough problems to move as a species into space simultaneously

there are far too many ideologues who despise that the earth is not what they dream, when it cannot ever satiate any of them at once

and it will be the same on Alpha Centauri <:laff:387622602111320065>

sure

but it'd give us future opportunities to really improve, and if we waste our times being perfect, we'd only be keeping ourselves limited from attempting to do so 50 times over on a million other experiences

you'd learn more from 100 failures than 1 perfect success

the more failures, the more possibilities you can get

centrifugal forces for example can keep the effects of gravity down to an absolute minimum to really limit that warping of the human body that we experience in low gravity

not to mention, colonies on mars really won't be the defacto path we're destined to go on

there's a much more likely chance that we're going to form something like bishop rings or oneill cylenders orbiting the sun, since they're much cheaper to make, as well as quite possible to construct with existing technology

while simultaneously providing massive swathes of surface area that would be comparable to what we see today in the square mileage of nations

with these artifical structures, we could form literally any environment we could ever dream of, either to preserve life, or to create new life

it could be as hot or cold as you want, obviously with the stationwide agreement among peers

im just discussing the possibilities

for example, if earth became inhospitable, we could build literal nature preserves for animals that would be entirely self sustainable

@F-Star that's silly and omnicidal

really now, the plastics will remain until they're brittle and everywhere

they literally require human intervention

life as it is now beyond humanity would be completely different anyway by that point

utterly pointless

why not just make the planet into a nature preserve

let the eagles peck the eyes out of animals on their own free will, etc

complex life so far appears to be completely unique to earth. Intelligent life probably even more so

to kill of humanity just to see if another would come about some time in the future is funny

>here's one, humanity dies and life resumes its course

might as well just be hiding away under a blanket in the middle of a house fire
