Answers.
Think of a place you really don't want other people to go. My guess would be that place is perfect and you don't want other people ruining it... [Reply]

They want to keep us away from Mars because if we established a colony there we could send a mission from Mars to Uranus. Uranus is what they’re trying to keep us away from. Uranus is filled with vast deposits of oil.
But don’t worry, no one is going to ask you any questions about what it was being used for. That’s classified information. [Reply]

So you're saying keeping us away from Uranus is a pro-state policy? [Reply]

The future generations will be dealing with this shit.
Lotsa luck to ya.
The estimations for Earth leaving the habitable zone is anywhere from 1.75 to 3 billion years from now. Earth will probably eat another planet killing asteroid before then. [Reply]

Yep. It's a near certainty a planet-killer asteroid will hit Earth over just the next million years or whatever. Way before the Sun expands into a red giant and swallows the Earth or any other natural calamity.
Beginning to look like we'll have to leave the solar system to find another long-term habitable planet. [Reply]

That's so far into the future that I don't think it's likely humans are still around. Something will kill us all off. Probably ourselves. [Reply]

Probably it'll be ourselves. Though a planet-killer rock could hit us at any time really. Just in the last decade there have been at least a dozen rocks that have passed by closer than the Moon's orbit. And those are just the ones we saw. Probably many more we didn't see. [Reply]
