i am certainly sympathetic to their concern about overpopulation causing a human calamity. less so climate change, we can adapt to that...unless it reaches a point of killing vegetation.

But their solution? what in the world makes these geniuses think people can live in space? what do they link generations of people born with no gravity, no air pressure, are going to evolve into?

nothing that can be called human.

& that assumes we can, through technology, actually live in space. Who the fuck wants to live entire existences in space stations? we can't "live" on mars. its too cold, there is no magnetic field, no ozone, no water, little to no gravity, no atmospheric pressure, all things required for human existence. just an errant space rock can destroy a space station with ease. bye bye civilization.

living in space stations is not living in space. its living in cocoons. this is too fragile a place to perpetuate the species over millions of years.

these smart people know through biology what happens in over-population: someday there will be a mass famine or plague or solar flare or volcano or comet that wipes out 90% of Man. The survivors will be living underground, not in space. & they will reboot the human race, & life will go on.

dumb libs.


spacesuits will advance and man will not depend on atmosphere...an errant rock can be intercepted considering we already have the tech to intercept man made missiles, I am willing to bet a rock is not such a formidable opponent...mars is just 1 in trillions of planets we will explore...you are acting like mars is the only planet out there and that its low gravity is the norm for every other planet...we can make our own gravity with simple centrifuge...

as for musk, you are pretending like coal is the only way to get electricity...you are pretending that space is not loaded with metals needed to make batteries...you are pretending that batteries will not advance and will not get better...there is 10.000 years worth of clean energy just on the moon and guess who is building tech to advance space travel? musk...

OP logic: wright brothers plane flew only 10m at great expense...screw that shit, it will never get better, buy a horse...

weak mind OP
