Out of reach?
Once again, science steps closer to finding another solar system like our own. As fascinating as such advances are, they’re always tainted for me by creeping realism. Let’s face it, unless we stumble upon some incredible new way to move quickly over vast distances, we’re never going to set foot on these worlds. In my book, that’s only slightly more likely than finding out that God actually exists.
Call me selfish if you will, but what’s the point of making a journey if you’re not going to see its end? Until the sun’s ready to explode, I can’t see one. I’d much sooner concentrate on worlds within our reach, namely Mars and Europa. Now that’s something that would get me excited. :)
