LeoRavus 10/16/23 3:24:27 AM #15:	It's kind of sad that humans think they're so important that we need to survive earth's destruction by the sun.

I think about insane sci fi ideas like that sometimes and wonder if it will someday be possible The thoughts can blow your damn mind. I've often found myself googling random statistics and having my mind absolutely blown. The Sun is 110 times the size of the earth. To think we COULD one day do something like that seems super out there. At the exact same time the nearest solar system other than ours is 11 light years away. To travel at that speed is ridiculous let alone needing to surpass that somehow countless times over to make traveling ANYWHERE Plausible whatsoever. We need to BLAZE past something that travels 186,000 miles in a single second. LOL One of 2 things is certain. Humans will die in this solar system. Or we will one day have technology that makes the best of today an absolute joke. We would have a tough time explaining what we use today to someone alive in 1910. So perhaps there is hope? NGL the Transfomers movie always stood out to me LOL.

I think about insane sci fi ideas like that sometimes and wonder if it will someday be possible</quote>The thoughts can blow your damn mind. I've often found myself googling random statistics and having my mind absolutely blown.The Sun is 110 times the size of the earth. To think we COULD one day do something like that seems super out there. At the exact same time the nearest solar system other than ours is 11 light years away. To travel at that speed is ridiculous let alone needing to surpass that somehow countless times over to make traveling ANYWHERE Plausible whatsoever. We need to BLAZE past something that travels 186,000 miles in a single second. LOLOne of 2 things is certain. Humans will die in this solar system. Or we will one day have technology that makes the best of today an absolute joke. We would have a tough time explaining what we use today to someone alive in 1910. So perhaps there is hope?NGL the Transfomers movie always stood out to me LOL. So wild how MUCH techn advanced in just the last 100 years when modern humans have been around so long. </quote> ...

GuerrillaSoldier 10/21/23 12:49:31 PM #46:	i'm sure no one imagined we'd be able to travel across our own planet in less than a full day. i'm sure no one imagined we'd be in boxes of metal with wheels daily to move from one place to another. no one imagined a board with wheels or a seat with wheels would be an acceptable method of transportation. it's just about transportation and efficiency and speed. if we can travel to/from planets faster, it'll make it all worthwhile. but to think it'll never or can't happen is just ludicrous. we'll figure out ways, it just depends on how long it'll take us, especially if we don't stop investing all of our tech on useless shit like phones. --- Disclaimer: There's a good chance the above post could be sarcasm.
