Why Do Humans Strive To Explore Space And Beyond.. - Topic

If you can build a submarine that'll go down to the very bottom of the Ocean, then they could actually make better spacecraft. They wanna look into the "oceans" on Titan or wtf ever that moon is called, but like you said, they've only been to the bottom of our ocean once. We couldn't even find a fucking Giant squid to photograph, but they expect to find some shit out in the middle of our solar system. Right.

because we need to get the fuck off this rock b4

1) Nuclear War
2) Bad Top-Secret Science Experiment
3) Astroid, turned metor strikes
4) Earth just blows up from the inside / Mass volcanic eruptions

and it would probably be nice to know where the fuck to go to have the best chance of survival.

we can figure out the human brain THERE and not be risking our entire civilization by having all of or metephoric (and genetic, i guess) eggs (no pun intended) in 1 basket...

this is so true. maybe i should build a space ship and get the hell out of here. go to mars, i dont care about atmosphere or aliens, ill make friends with them

What a waste of money. All the money could have been spent on more practical problems. That's the problem with the world, we can't prioritize.

not really, space exploration etc could lead to technological advancements.
