This is all fantasy though. This is just computer generated graphics. Unless we got something REALLY FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG in physics, humans, at least humans like us, will never leave this solar system. Maybe some mutants that are intentionally made to have immortality will.
I disagree. It won't happen in our lifetime, but the fundamental issues with space travel are no different than crossing the Atlantic 10,000 years ago. 1. Technology must advance. 2. Our Science(s) must advance. 3. Our Biology must advance. 4. Our Lifespans must advance. Only when those converge together to shorten the trips to the nearest solar system(s), will we journey afar.
@@tyree9055 No, this isn't a technological problem, it's a physical problem. You might as well say that with the advancement of technology, that we'll get perpetual motion machines. Even if we achieve an infinite lifespan, reaching the nearest habitable planet would take centuries, and the delay in communication would be years. It wouldn't be a coherent civilization even if a settlement could be made. If we settled, say Mars, it wouldn't take too long before the offspring of the settlers are basically no longer human. They would adapt to their environment, and they would be true Martians. 1/3rd gravity, they'd adapt to that.
I love space games for moments like this. Elite Dangerous also provides many similar occasions. ❤
When you reach orbit in KSP it gives a similar feeling
since Star Trek Bridge Commander got some mods, peaceful moments werer an easy task. Feeling very old now🙂

fuzzywzhe ruins everything
imagine taking this guy to the movies and all he says is "That was just a bunch of actors though."
That was boring 👎
