I'm pissed because I got thinking how far we (Humanity as a whole) could have gotten if NASA hadn't given up on manned space exploration. We could have had people on Mars by now! Gahh!

And destroyed Mars just like Earth?

Somehow, I don't think planet travel is a good idea.

Mars doesn't exactly have a complex biosphere to screw up... (Microbial life is the probably the most complex thing there.)

Exactly. Banks Orbitals, O'Neill Cylinders, Stanford Toruses (Tori?), all sorts of orbital and space-based habitats.

Eventually, earth'll become so uninhabitable that we'll need a new home.

If we don't screw it up anymore than we have already, it should remain habitable for 'prox another billion years, after which it'll enter a Post-Gaian phase. (In other words, Earth is gonna become a lot more like Venus.)

At least, uninhabitable for us humens.

Dunno about extremophiles or whatnot.

The space program was really a dick measuring contest, it was more for the prestige than any genuine interest in space exploration. Of course, it is nowadays but its not as highly funded as it used to be.

Oh my...

Napalm? The real stuff, or what you get from dissolving construction-grade styrofoam in gasoline?
