We now will apparently only have to wait ten to twenty years to go to Mars. Thanks SpaceX!

Now, in ten years or so, we will be going to Mars. SpaceX claims it's rocket will be a transporter, not a colonizer, but hopefully we can work our way up to colonizing sometime before I die.

Well I might as well get started here too...
Why do we need to colonize? Sure, in a few hundred thousand years we'll need to. I mean, in Earth's history, let alone the world's, we're just a small spec in it. Humans have only been around approximately 500k years, right? Well, considering that the Earth is about 4 and a half billion years old, 500,000 divided by 4,500,000,000 equals about 1, we've only been here 1% of the world's history. After the hell Earth has gone through I'd say we have resources for years to come.


well obviously we'll survive for a few yaers, probably decades but overpopulation will take its toll and there's stuff like oil which we are still Dependant on.

What if we already colonized from another planet and something drastic happened and without education to teach all the newborns the human raced just started over? *creepy music*

We evolved on earth, there are no other humans in space. You could make a science-fiction novel out of that though XD
