same as fantasy. the fact that it is not real has a certain appeal.

What's the point of watching porn movies when realistically I'll never even touch a boob?

What's the point of romance movies when realistically I will never know love?

>never
Never is a long fucking time. It doesn't take into account new discoveries and overturning old ideas.

4 light years is still too close for comfort

Based

Great analogy.

>implying global warming won’t kill us all by 2050
LMAO

The funny thing about that is that we will probably survive in some capacity but will be unable to re-industrialize the world.

>tfw our entire planet and centuries of evolution are smaller than a grain of sand in perspective of the entire cosmos, and we'll never get to explore even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of it

Physical limitations make it impossible

You can be the center of your own world, if you want to. Most people are.

Probably not that soon, might make it to destroying ourselves in other cool ways.

i don't know, humanity is pretty smart someone will figure it out. besides we got some cool stuff in our own solar system.

> Europa Report
Ehh, why did their mission failed, again?
The premise was good but it turned out so unmemorable I can hardly remember anything. They all died, right?

Seething

wtf is that post?

you don't even need ftl travel though. all it'd take is a biggish ship with a crew that reproduces through natural ways (say, all blond white women scientists and all black mechanics) and send it on its merry way

>trapped by c

It's not fair bros.

>Ehh
Listen you slurring fuck, keep that shit to verbal communicating and stop including it into text

Anyone watched The Planets on BBC2? So comfy.

4ly is pretty far actually.

Does your handler know you're polluting the internet? If yes, I need to have a word with him.

>hairless apes that fill tubes with go juice to barely leave their atmosphere who just harnessed the atom (if you can call it that all you dipshits use it for is lol make boom and making fucking water hot lmao) less than a hundred years ago who still shove wadded tree matter in their fecal office to "clean" themselves think they are hot shit technologically
Your tech is in such an infancy that you just barely have left the utilize hooved mammals for main transportation phase and suddenly you think you know the limits of the universe.

They'll be overcome somehow.

It's considered realistic that we'll discover radical life-extension technology that will put interstellar travel within a person's lifetime.

You really have to be asking why there aren't more radical life-extension movies since that is more realistic.

Why do we age at all? It makes no sense. As long as you have a source of energy cells should just replicate themselves as usual, no wear.

love when it's selective

The apes on Earth played with quantum tunneling so often and liked it so much that they addicted themselves to wireless global networking devices, turning their entire species into a real time distributed intelligence spanning the full length of their solar system.

Well, there are cells that do just that.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immortalised_cell_line

Immortal cell lines are not impossible. Why nature hasn't selected for them is another matter.

Figure out how to replace telomeres and you hypothetically cure an absolute shit ton of diseases and possibly make humans immortal. Though were not entirely sure what happens when cells can divide indefinitely

some syndromes result in decreased telomere shortening (aging)
gilbert's syndrome is one and i have it, it also cuts the risk of heart disease by 30%, pretty based

NASA is a scam for taxpayers. Literally circlejerk for scientists on the expense of taxpayers.

not just heart disease, but all cause mortality you lucky fuck
