i was thinking about how bascially the human race are stuck on planet earth with no practical actual way of space travelling.
we probably won't find a way to visit the nearest habitable planet in our lifetime.
we'll probably kill ourselves in 2075 during the scramble for resources too.
so i ask, what's the fucking point in doing science?
we're just gonna die anyway, and we will never be able to travel the stars.

Mars is habitable anon. We can travel into space on a rocket anon. Read a book anon.
Use nukes to move phobos beyond the roche limit.

It's like try to move tank by shooting from slingshot

>what's the fucking point in doing science
no point. all what happen on the earth is just a determenistic process of high level organization of matter. Like in Petri dish

Exactly. Hit a tank in orbit with a slingshot and it will fall into the atmosphere within a reasonable amount of time.

Its just another distraction before we die, we all need them in some form.

You would escape the orbit, than deorbit that tank.
Thinking about it, it might be impossible, because at some point you would fly relative to the tank with the same speed as the projectile from the slingshot. At this point you would be able to accelerate yourself, but retrograde thrust for the tank would be impossible. At this point you would have to make some retrograde thrust yourself.
I think orbital colonies and large scale stations would bea better bet for us.

Not with that low gravity.

It sounds like someone needs a good dose of optimistic Einstein quotes!

Why?

There lots of maybies and no certainties in that post. Do you know how we turn maybes into certainties? Science

Thank you for that image OP, I'm going to torture /k/ with it. I know how they love assault rifles.

Roboooooooot house!
Human beings will probably never leave this star system, and that's just fine by me. If we can colonize Mars and the Belts we're safe for extra billion+ years.
