I guess the real questions are: (in this order)

1. Can we not kill ourselves before we figure all this out?
2. Can we manage to solve enough questions to get ourselves off this rock before we completely deplete it's resources?
3. Can we get out of our solar system before our sun goes Red Giant? (i know we've still got a few billion years)
4. Can we hang on long enough to eventually make the jump to other universes at will?

The last one is the deciding factor in whether or not we are here to stay or just a passing eye-blink.
