    Life is disgusting, I agree. Where would you go, if all rocky planets and moons were available? And maybe the stars systems withing 15ly? You just gonna homestead somewhere?

      Right now we have no options. Earth is too primitive to have met other civilizations.

      And we still have wars ongoing constantly around the planet.

      Honestly yeah, it would kind of be the dream. The problem is it’s awful lonely if your not bringing or creating family and that would be kind of cruel to bring someone into a planet with a human population of like let’s say 100 (you and a dozen or so other families who were crazy enough to do the same), where everyone is related, after only like two generations. You would basically force your descendants to have to take a massive voyage themselves or marry their cousin… and that doesn’t seem too fair. You also better hope at least a couple of those people are really great teachers, who packed basically the entire earth knowledge base, otherwise your going to have this weird agro society stranded on another planet.
