Humans Are not made to travel into Space. Its a waste of Money.

[james bond]

It was here billions of years without us and will be here billions of years after we're gone.

I keep telling you we haven't been here billions of years and once this planet is gone, it and we will be gone.

I don't mind spending $$$s for space stations. Don't think we can live on Mars or the moon. I'm not ready to chuck using the moon as a fuel station, but agree with the naysayers on the solar radiation.

We don't live long enough for space travel.

How do we get round that? Transplant into robots?

Would you want to go into space? Anyone?

No. I'd get homesick.

We haven't been here billions of years ... but the planet has. It didn't notice when we arrived, it won't notice when we're gone.

Would you want to go into space? Anyone?

Of course, there is something visceral in the human spirit of adventure to go to new places.

Going into space, at least for the near future, would be extraordinarily difficult and dangerous for humans. But, the same can be said for the great voyages of exploration of the 17th and 18th Centuries ... and, at least in space, we know where we're going and what will meet us when we get there.

That's my view too. When the save-the-planet mob start spouting off.

They're only concerned about their own comfort and welfare. (Oh dear, a storm's coming in from the Atlantic. It might blow my roof off!)

Who do we think we are? The planet will just shrug us off. Without a second thought.

My biggest gripe would be clean clothing and the lack thereof. Wearing the same outfit for days at a time....yuck!

I think I would be bored by the 13th orbit. The only thing more boring for me would be an inter-planetary trip with months between seeing Earth and Mars.

The voyages of exploration took years and clean clothes weren't really an option. On the other hand, the ports of call weren't barren rocks...

Watching Apollo 13 put me off. When they had to shut down nearly everything in order to conserve power. Including the urine disposal facility.

No we haven't. It's a made up fairy tale by those who believe in evolution.

We can't be finding millions of years old fossils so easily.

I'm not sure how to address the fact that you can't discern between geology and biology.

That being said, what you believe has zero impact on what humans do, or don't do, for the next few centuries. It will happen without your input.

One of the things that the Overlords prohibit is space research or travel; at one point, Karellen even says pointedly that the stars are not for man. This vexes mankind in that they lose a sense of adventure and possibility, and are veritable prisoners on their own planet. However, Jan comes to agree that mankind is not ready for what is out there in the far reaches of space; it is too disconcerting, too incomprehensible, and too foreign.

The Overlords were right to shield mankind from an equivalent situation of a man from the Stone Age showing up in modern times. Of course, it isn't quite clear if Clarke himself believes this; in fact, he has said that he does not. He does seem cognizant, though, that there may be much we have to reconcile ourselves to that makes us uncomfortable or afraid.

Many studies have shown that space travel is not good for Humans beings. We are Earth bound creatures not born to travel into the zero gravity of space. All the money being spent on space travel, could be best spent on Earth. We still have world hunger and many problems here on Earth. Lets stop all this Mars rover missions, and spaceEX launches now.!!

Humans were not made to travel in the air or on the water either. Neither were we designed to move faster than a very few miles per hour.

You some kinda Luddite?

See what happens when you give the Amish a computer.. lol

The computer will produce barns for free with woodcraft.

Naw,.they spend all day surfing dodgy pornsites.

Let me say it in this way: Better you do not try to motivate any of the united idiots of the world to murder the Amish, who is the best friend of an unbelievable mighty Extraterrestrian.

Sure. Bayer - german company - bought Monsanto - US-American company. Now the value of Bayer is about the same as the price was they had payed for Monsanto. And Germans are now responsible for the wrong deeds of the former owners of Monsanto. That's what US-Americans love. They feel smart and clever in such cases and love it to call the people they betrayed bad and evil the same time. I call them all idiots. The betrayers as well as the betrayed. What a waste of human energy.

Just a quick question: are you having the same conversation as the rest of us?

You propagated contempt against the Amish on reason of the US-american way of stupidity. I on my own had not any reason to speak about the Amish here. But meanwhile I'm tired about all hate mongerers. You should not think any ET would be happy to see you. But perhaps the same ET is very happy to meet Amische.
