    Ya. Until we know everything then we can start playing with off world NHI but first we need to stop hating each other’s religions. Won’t make it, a yellowstone or Solar Flare will get us first.

    to me traveling to Antarctica or underneath is as futuristic as boarding a spaceship

    I would rather hope one day, when we use to travel to other celestial bodies, we use the same vehicles to explore our oceans

    How do we show the beauty of life to the world? Some people just don’t care and I feel bad for them for not appreciating how full of life every square inch of Earth is! Even in the clouds there’s microorganisms!
