No.

At most if we built habitat in space with sufficient artificial gravity. I live in those.

But planet wise this is probably the only one humans can live on. And as comfortable as we are now.even this planet is constantly figuring out ways to kill us.

This planet is the only one we can live on .

What could possibly go wrong?

Maybe. But I certainly know a few people I would volunteer.

I am half way through Howard the Duck and you ask me that!

Thing is, there'n always ways to scale yr plights/hopes offa the scale for benefit of nowan othah than yusself.

I believe Gahd, Satan, an' mebbe jus' the regulah motion of the planits, gaht mosta this schwango in their schemes -- an' we are free always to eithah engage or ignore.

Thing I always ask musself is ...

could I possibly imagine sumthin' at least 0.001% bettah?

Most times, if'n you sit quiet for a moment , you can best out most any sityooayshwaahn this way.

How do I know this?

Bcs'n my bra collection maxes out on comfort an' verve without bein' overly provocative or scarrin' my tits forevah with no kinda "monthly pyrotechnics plan".

Let's think about this a minute.

If the planet has a breathable atmosphere, it means there is life there (Oxygen is a waste product of plant life). If there is life there, we would have no defense against microbes, spores, bacteria that we have no immunity to.

And everything has to work perfectly. The spaceship has no problems. Hibernation works perfectly. The atmosphere has to be a perfect match, as does the temperature, air pressure, water supply, food supply (are the plants edible?)



It's not that I'm attached to my surroundings. It's that I have nothing I feel I need to escape from. There are great adventures to be had here.

And traveling to the far future (assuming you returned)?

Now you're a person that has no value in the world. You have no knowledge, no real capacity to learn like a child. You would end up dependent on others to take care of you.

By the way, if you are unhappy here, changing your location doesn't turn you into a happy person.

We have problems here. But going to another planet just vastly multiplies those problems, not solves them.

On Earth, I'm a pompous ass with delusions of grandeur. On a different planet, I'd be a pompous ass with delusions of grandeur......on a planet that wants to kill me.

Will we be able to stop for bathroom breaks?

...because I get asked that on a 1 hour trip to Toledo...

This was a prospect in the past when the problem was exponential population growth with potential over crowding.

But we solved that by education of women who then have fewer children and moving large parts of the population into cities with living space that isn't sufficient to raise many children. And generally long work hours for working couples.

Besides the virus and microbial issues Claude mentioned the foods we aeat The results of tens of thousands of years of selective breeding and domestation of a small number of a vast amount of animals and plants.

So the logistics of growing food and feeding yourself and building proper shelter and power water and air.

Even shelter in space will probably take a form like a Borge cube or sphere

Do you really need to even ask the question in my case??

...Get me a beer and pass the remote

That is just to put off getting to Toledo.

Oooook.

Remember Riddick, crashed on a dead planet with low Oxygen and they did pretty well apart from the flying evil creature thing.

You can always bring your pompous ass with delusions of grandeur recliner chair.

No.

I'm not going on any government agency trips to outer space.

I can sleep right here on planet Earth and my life is fine.

At the rate things are going, I'm not interested in seeing Earth's future either.

I'm pretty sure it will be a dystopian trash heap.

If humans adapt to another planet the probability is they might just not be humans anymore after the adaptation.

Humans adapted because of how our prehuman species used technology from stone tools to fermented food. To fire and basic food cultivation probably tubers.

With the technologies we are bringing in know it's probably humans will see rapid evolution. As we integrate technology into our biology. As we possibly double the lifespan again or more using technology to enhance the bodies ability to replicate. And all of the nutrition knowledge for life enhancement we are getting today.

We might put habitable structure on mar but most likely in a hundred years humanly will at best be building habitat in space that requires no adaptations.

One humans do that and can spread to the rest of the the solar system doing that. We really won't want to go through the expenses and effort of settling on planets or the long process of terra forming.

Na i would probably prefer to stay on the couch and enjoy my last years watching movies etc .Unless if the mision has something more interesting for me like the posibility to go younger again etc
