I don't know about Mars per se, but I do know looking for a new planet to inhabit is almost non optional for our species.

We are treating this earth like crap...it's gonna go on forever. We need alternatives fast...and alternative = looking for new planets way more than fixing ours up (we suck at that).

Space expansion is necessary for humanity. It's not optional. We are a cancer that needs thousands of years and a lot of catastrophes to maybe evolve.
Man only the wealthiest will have the opportunity to have their bloodlines extend through space exploration. Majority of humanity will remain on this floating rock lol

The ones who perpetuated the rapid decline of this planet will be the ones colonizing new planets. Know that.

We? who you speaking for playboi?
:mjpls:

Humanity as a whole is absolute trash. What makes it worse is that humans are capable of higher intelligence and still choose to willingly commit atrocities. If we don't render ourselves extinct in 500 - 1000 years, a more advanced civilization (or A.I.) will. :yeshrug:

We was living good in Africa and the Indians were doing the same on North America for 10s of thousands of years.

We were living off the land, free rent and our women used to stay at home to mind the children.

Ever since them people came on scene it’s been chaos, confusion, and destruction. So naw we ain’t no damn cancer.

I doubt we'll ever get to that point. Keep in mind it's easier to colonize the ocean floor or put domes over Antarctica Than it is to go to a whole other planet and set up shop. Both options are even easier and cheaper than terraforming the moon.


To put this in perspective, You could glass the entire surface of the Earth with fusion bombs, And the remnants of the planet would still be more habitable and easier to get to than mars. Especially when you factor in that most of the underground is unused.


So unless one of these scientists at harvard creates a black hole that eats the entire planet, its highly doubtful that we will have to leave earth. Its more of an option , than a requirement. Even silly things like global warming or super viruses are a non-issue when compared to the hellscape that is mars or titan or io or god forbid venus. And no, You can give up on going to other solar systems cause that will never happen.
You know what breh, you right.

I definitely didn't consider the fact that space is unforgivable for humans when we consider migration to a different planet (wasn't really thinking mars, but the apparently suitable closest planet, Proxima Centauri B, is like 4 light years away and still a menace to humanity).

Thanks for the enlightenment.
