God is as God Does...

Put our head between our legs and kiss our collective humanity ass goodbye.
Free choice. Where's the fun in that?
Nice place ya got here. Let the games begin.

What do you think the carrying capacity of earth is with the current development of humanity?
10 billion? 20 billion? 40 billion? 100billion?

How soon 10 billion? etc?

Somewhere over the rainbow, the lollypops gonna get scarce.
Will the new model 2020 Skyler have time to work till 70 years of age, fill his 401-K, and enjoy the proceeds for a full and healthy retirement?

Charts like this are just dumb. It's not like we will ever be able to travel to these worlds, because the best speed we can muster is like 0.01% the speed of light.

So to reach tau CET e, the closest one on the list, it would take us 120,000 years on a one way trip to get there. That is not happening. Ever. No machine lasts 120,000 years without maintenance. Sorry Trekkers, there will be no Federation of Planets.
Which does raise the frequently asked question, why are we trying to get people onto the Moon and the nearest Solar System planets?

It might be worthwhile if we could use resources we find there and return them to Earth to help humanity. But that doesn't seem a capability in the foreseeable future.
