What are you thoughts on that quote?

is ok

That statement is only true in the present. a Medical breakthrough might greatly increase the life of a single person and allow them to stay alive long enough. Or make it possible to store a person's consciousness and memories in digital form, which could then be put inside a robotic body.

Neither are true. We still haven't navigated the dark depths of our planet's oceans, and we are just on the cusp of true space travel. So get fuckin' pumped, son.

Actually we're right on the verge of getting ready to explore the galaxy. Many different organizations are working on the race to Mars. On top of that, NASA is working on both the Alcubierre warp drive and an engine that would allow ships to move without on board fuel.

by 2018 there can be a drug that could extend your life by 15% by 2050 we could be ageless
cool huh?

While it might be true that we're in an era where there isn't much left to physically explore, there's still a lot of things we can learn about the Universe while we're still here on Earth. Not only are physicists making brand new and amazing discoveries but practically every professional field still has lots left to discover. Medicine, psychology, archaeology, and even mathematics to name a few.

>Born too late to explore the Earth

Your daily reminder we have a higher resolution map of Venus' surface than we do the ocean's floor.

If you were born back in the day would you really board a exploration ship most people never came back from…?

…Or continue to fap.

Yea, because people are SOOOO interested in the bottom of the ocean.

Well, with these kind of sea monsters lying within the depths



How can you not be interested? there might be some giant sea monster just waiting to be discovered down there.

by 2025 everyone could get nanomachines

Well if it doesnt turn out like the flying cars thing, you always have the singularity to look foward too. Should be around 2040-2050.

Possibly even sooner than that. The nanotech age will very soon be replacing the information age

I hope we don't nuke the ever-living fuck out of each other before we make any manned progress beyond the Solar System.

The ocean has plenty of mysteries to uncover; and we might find chtulu in those dents, you can't really know until you tried so why not?

They already did.

The problem is, stuff is advancing so fast nobody really knows for sure what's going to happen. Try using a bit of imagination, it makes the future seem way less bleak. Our generation could be the venerable elders that have to rebuild the world after World War 3. Or the ones that survived the greatest [disaster here] of all time. Or solved the environmental crisis. Or brought dinosaurs back to life Jurrasic Park style. Or built the first space elevator.

I think the problem is, our idea of what ancient exploration was like is really inaccurate (it was kinda shitty, if you think about it). And our idea of space exploration is mostly from sci-fi, which is more like the far future. We could be the ones to blow up the moon, I think thats cool enough.
