Thats a great question i mean fundamentally im an optimist i think that weve already seen well i know that weve already seen just incredible advances in science and Technology Medicine communication transportation just in the last few 100 years and i think that you know thats whats going to help us survive as a species thats whats going to help us learn to live in a S
Visionary. Not interplanetary flights maybe just decades away. But what will they be like and are we ready to embrace interstellar a well i asked. Researcher professor.

For us. Do you think there were east or there is not. Well i mean right now thats true thats absolutely true but we we are made for this planet for this environment we have evolved to for this life around in this kind of an atmosphere with this temperature and this pressure and this composition so you know earth is our hom
