    Same with going to go live on Mars and the moon and Jupiter’s moons, etc.

    Like homies. We ain’t even brought civilization to our oceans or mountains right here on Earth, which are much closer and more hospitable.

    You would think the next big bazinga thing would be seasteads and terraforming new islands and the like on Earth, but they blew right past that. China, Saudis and the gulf states are the only ones trying to do the terraforming sci-fi stuff.

      Even Antarctica is far more habitable than Mars. It’s warmer (usually) and you can breathe the air.

      They know they are killing it all here and they want to move on to killing the next thing.

        even a completely "dead" and polluted Earth is 100 times more hospitable and easily repaired than trying to terraform Mars
