That was very nice.  If we never push the envelope, we will never know just how far we really can go!

Hello All,

 

I have been reading all the comments 

Regarding "life on EARTH" and "life with Flash Gordon/Buck Rodgers/Lost in Space/Star Trek/Star Wars etc etc.."

 

I have posted on this list off and on over the years ... I am sure people have read my email address "futureship" and had countless interpretations.  It was created by me as a metaphor for both sides of this discussion. 

 

I come to you as a green engineer philosopher.  I believe both sides of this discussion are correct in that there 

Are truths and beliefs worth acknowledging and respecting.

 

Overall ... We are in the best possible 

Situation in the history of mankind to 

Change course. Simply implement  All we now know about saving Mother Earth as we are trying to do on this 

List of passengers aboard "the futureship" .

 

Beam me up Gennaro ... You are 

The first captain of The Futureship.

I mean that with all sincerity, respect 

And a little bit of humor! :)

Space travel may happen because we have destroyed earth. But I doubt it. I think space travel is happening because humans explore. None of the reasons given for travel are because our earth is dying. The reasons are about exploring, finding new frontiers, more resources, more land to call ours, and the simple ability to have bragging rights. It will happen whether you think it is right or not. In fact the better we survive on earth the more chances that we space travel. Problems on earth, whether through ecological destruction or human dysfunction, hold us back from space travel.
