  • Embark on a cosmic journey to the TRAPPIST system! Join us in the year 2323 as humanity faces an interstellar exodus, discovering seven potentially habitable planets orbiting TRAPPIST-1. The future of our species might just be among the stars.

    Climatic catastrophes on Earth would never be the driving cause for colonization of space. It's just a loved theme for science journalists to tell to these kind of videos.
    The driving force for the colonization would be .....colonization and the thirst for knowledge and knowing the unknown

    • @KonradTheWizzard
      @KonradTheWizzard Před 6 měsíci

      I'll give you 99.9999999% odds that there is no civilization and nothing that you can call "flora" or "fauna" without blushing. There is a very very small chance that there might be primitive single celled organisms living in an atmosphere that is toxic to us. The moment significant amounts of oxygen get released to that atmosphere most of those organisms will die out. The rest of them will be eaten to extinction by primitive Earth organisms, like yeast or soil bacteria.

  • @UMadUCauseBad
    @UMadUCauseBad Před 5 měsíci +3

    We'll never leave the solar system, its like jumping out of a moving car, the solar system is the car with the sun driving. When you leave the solar system, it will shoot by and leave us behind, with us never being able to catch back up without moving faster than the sun. not only that but the speed and things wed have to deal with makes it impossible. A simple proton existing could radiate the ship or cause damage if we run into it. And to even approach the speeds wed need to to make the trip makes it beyond vaguely feasible.

    • @QBCPerdition
      @QBCPerdition Před 5 měsíci +1

      Not quite. If you jumped out of a moving car and there was nothing to slow you down, like the air or the ground, you'd just be moving at the same speed as the car, just outside it.
      Likewise, leaving our solar system doesn't mean the sun just shoots away from you. We have two probes outside our solar system we are still able to communicate with, and they're not being left behind.
      However, if we went to another star system and stayed there, the different speeds and directions of the two stars means they might be moving away from each other, or closer to each other, making a return trip easier or harder the longer people stay there.
