We get there from here by using nuclear energy to help us develop space travel. Once we get into space in a big way we can start to exploit the resources of space and develop ways to colonize the solar system and eventually other stars. We need to get past the idea of needing planets and become a truly space living/fairing culture.

Yes, I agree that the whole future destiny of the human race depends upon continuing to expand its territory into the rest of the universe. Even so, we will still have to get to the point of controlling our numbers.
Once we colonize space controlling our numbers becomes a problem for the people who choose to stay on the Earth.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
