shakey, tcs and other libertarian/gonzo-capital type sites are nuts over private space exploration.

you don't know me very well if you think I'm libertarian or "gonzo-capital" (whatever that means)

how well do i know you if i think you're illiterate?

I just want off this planet, soon as we can up enough infrastructure to have colonies on Jupiter's moons w/ supply runs to the asteroid belt.

Stephen Hawking is right.

Also, we need FTL drives, or else the cylons is gunna find us.

Hawking is so annoying, even when he's right.

Moon base = Classic. This is all predicated on civilization not destroying itself in the next 200 years. But, this is a totally necessary step toward civilizing another planet. It's like there's another New World out there, and there's islands all the way there that we can establish bases on. Expensive, and we'll never see the benefits in our lifetime, but necessary.

We can't have a moon base, it's already inhabited!

Stephen Hawking utterly OffTM. Not that we shouldn't go to the moon or mars, but the idea that once we have bases there the human race is saved is ridiculous. For one thing the chances of us making the earth UTTERLY UNINHABITABLE for human life are pretty slim.

And as for extra-solar planets - c'mon. There isn't any proof that an FTL drive is even possible (though it breaks my heart to think it) - let alone feasible within the next x hundred years.

a totally necessary step toward civilizing another planet lol think we should totally start w/ our own planet first lol

Who will be the first band to play the moon? Please don't let it be Sigur Ros.

Didn't Blur send a song to Mars? They seem to be the most experienced at this kind of thing.

Jonathan King, hopefully.

The more colonies we have, the odds of them all simultaneously meeting an apocalypse are reduced. Ergo, RACE SAVED

― Dr M (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 15:43 (seventeen years ago) link

ie, lotsa people will be ready to leave before we make Earth UTTERLY UNINHABITABLE
