Unless we screw ourselves over, I think we should be seeing some people on mars in about 70 years. We'd probably not be able to go ourselves (i'd be 90something) but it would be cool to see it though.
i would be 85 by that time.

the poll is limited to solar systems and that is a disappointment :c


poll should just be yes/no since title is a yes/no question

once we develop engines that don't suck we'll probably have no issues for travel

With the rate that technology is increasing (including medical technology), I would be surprised if we didn't start colonizing past mars in our lifetimes, because our lifetimes could be longer than you might think.

Theres a guy who predicted iPhones saying that we will be able to GLaDoS ourselves in 2050.

If we don't want to die out, then yes we'll colonize other solar systems.

And I hope we don't erase our memories and become bloodthirsty and trap hummus humans for testing.

well with this quantum teleportation device i am working on, we can teleport to any point in space & time. however the side affect is that we're in the nth dimension, so no one can see, hear, or touch you.

so far i've teleported 7 rats, and haven't found a trace of them.

I chose 'Other Planets and Maybe Some Moons' because that's the only viable answer at this time. We have no FTL space travel, and making the journey to other solar systems at less than lightspeed isn't possible.

With the time given until we literally cannot live on Earth anymore, yes I believe with our speed of technological advances that we will colonize other planets.

The only doubt being something in our own domain loving us over, eg; virus, nuclear war, etc

Did you not read of Smithers said?
Its going to happen.

I see no such mission, not even under study.

probably because the project is so under-developed it's like losing the fetus after conception.

humans are too primitive and idiotic to even stop wars without bloodshed, if we colonize mars, then my so called faith will be restored.
