Stephen Hawking is an inspiration. He can't walk, can't talk, can't eat or shit by himself- yet what he dreams up is nothing short of breathtaking. In his latest discussion, he says humans have 100 years to pack up shop and move off the Earth- or we're doomed.
This time, he's pulled back the curtain for a glimpse of the world our great grandchildren will inherit if we don't get off this rock, and soon. A true story more terrifying in its implications than anything Stephen King has ever come up with; We're in a race for the survival of our species, against the inevitability of using up the resources here on the ground and collapsing our global civilisation.
And as usual, he's right on the money with this. I've been thinking about this same 'escape window' concept for years.
We're safe- it's our grandkids who are in deep shit.
Thanks, Steve!

We are on track to be on mars and in space within a hundred years so ,, go human race.
What this news makes me worried about is not the top 2% of wealth holders plus some skilled workers and maybe a lotto. I don't worry much about dogs and cats and cows or food some animals. i do worry about off world research. About what's considered expendable here. will the earth be abandoned by the elite and the the old rulers? doubtful those positions won't be refilled. the new colonies will be governed by commerce and the old ideologies.
now we must face new challenges. even before the old problems are resolved. it is what it is.
