Shifty Nipples posted:yup, it will always be "easier" to fix this planet than to make another livable. we just need to find a planet with a magnetic field, livable star, tons of water, biome we can eat, and millions of millions of tons of infrastructure. also no prions how hard could it be??

Humanity, unable to survive on a world with a breathable atmosphere, perfectly compatible biosphere, and excellent radiation shielding is inexorably destined to live in places with none of those things. En masse. While the aforementioned world is considered uninhabitable despite still having at least two of those things. While we still haven't mapped out and understood the function of all of the things inside and on our bodies that also rely on those things to keep us healthy. FFS all we can do is transport poop from one butthole to another when there's a problem because our own intestinal ecosystem and its feedbacks is a mystery, never mind making a functional enclosed environment.

why should humans go to the stars? because its loving fun and cool and a way for the universe to experience itself, and advances human knowledge (an absolute good!) that's all the reason we need tiberion02 has issued a correction as of 00:29 on May 18, 2022 |

poo poo is it too late to suggest [Die-o-sphere]Shifty Nipples posted:yup, it will always be "easier" to fix this planet than to make another livable. Yeah, anyone thinking people could survive on another planet without figuring out how to fix and live sustainably on earth needs to go read about Biosphere 2 again. People living in space requires an understanding of environmental management that we do not have. The most important field in space exploration today is environmental engineering or something and I will die on this hill, shouting from the other side of the fence at the rocket scientists while security is called on me again pygmy tyrant has issued a correction as of 01:00 on May 18, 2022 |

Historically speaking we aren’t even close to being the most successful organism this planet has ever seen. The tyrannosaur and it’s ancestors and offshoots for example is found EVERYWHERE spanning millions of years in the fossil record. it is very conceivable that intelligence will prove to be very maladaptive in the final analysis.

Vermontposting it has been such a long time since I saw a woodpecker that I assumed someone was working on the fence when I first heard it  here's some cool algae, looks a little plastic-deficient but we'll get that sorted eventually  here's the remains of a chimney that used to be part of some sort of resort bungalow complex. people burn random garbage here. there's also some garbage we haven't burned yet in the background, amazing how much noise those dumb things make  i don't really know devil's weed things but i respect the enthusiasm here

i love the implicit assumption that the humans in charge will of course provide for all your needs on this new world. it will be a utopia for all that want to work! surely we won’t just build a slaver empire predicated on violence and exploitation like the last new world

A space colony necessarily means all but a handful of humans are still stuck here and doomed. Don't Look Up predicting the space ark is all failsons and oligarchs was 100% on point.

Oil is not literal dinosaurs mostly, it's algae and plankton that fell to the seafloor and was buried, and trees that were buried by sediment in a time before organism that could eat lignin evolved.

Stereotype posted:there isn't even an atmosphere on mars. we have trouble with bases in Antarctica and you can just fly there in a plane. the biggest thing we have ever gotten off the earth has less livable space than your apartment and is the most expensive single project ever undertaken. we're dying on this rock. best we could do is plant a tree no human will live to see and shoot some extremophile bacteria at it we (or at least private industry in the US) can't even loving pull off a goddamn bubble in Tucson, Arizona (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biosphere_2) in a literal attempt to remind everyone that biosphere 1 is the earth and is hosed I agree with that dude who literally has just joined us to tell us about space travel; galactic colonization is our birthright but sadly, capitalists stole it, and will never deliver it, even for themselves, because they're literally too loving generationally stupid and capitalist class solidarity does not extend far enough to not destroy progress amongst themselves would love to be proven wrong yet again, though! looking forward to BlueVirginX delivering spacefaring colonization capability in our grandchildren's lifetimes/before it becomes impossible for humanity to actually find and reach another compatible atmosphere. that would, truly, be amazing. and we all acknowledge miracles would be super loving cool, cause that would be.
