It May Sound Crazy But..

Me, "I know it may sound crazy but even in our own solar system there are planets, Mars, desert like, and Moons, Europa, waterworlds like, and Earth like, a mixture of the two, that could harbor life or support life that we reintroduce. In fact the age old question of: "Why are we here?" Is probably to export life into the Universe as humans ourselves go out economically, politically, and exploratorily.
 We know the good things and bad things about life, (Hopefully the good outweighs the bad) and maybe God put us here knowing we would one day want to go out and explore and bring life, with us? I am sure there are many views on the subject and I have plenty. Mine is just one of many ideas."



From article, NASA Will Try Find ‘Star Wars’ Like Planets In Search For Alien Life

(There are only eight planets in our solar system, including Earth, but in the 20 years since humans first detected a planet outside our celestial neighborhood, over 3,400 exoplanets have already been discovered. And given the immense and ever-increasing vastness of the Universe, the number of planets that exist in it is likely to be as innumerable as the number of stars.

Given the sheer number, it is also entirely possible that some of those planets resemble very closely the depictions of other worlds in fiction, such as Hoth, Tatooine or Scarif in the “Star Wars” films. NASA scientists are analyzing the existing data on exoplanets to see if such planets exist with the Milky Way instead of in a galaxy far, far away.)

Don't be afraid of Future Robotization

Me, , "Yes, but there will be humans monitoring the robots some where, in case a robot has a hiccup. Which means, more robots run and service fast food chains, and more chains can open serving more food per neighborhood.. The human workforce becomes more techie trained and a 15 dollar an hour job may become even greater paying for the lucky individuals who are the robot support staff. Old jobs taken away but an almost equal amount of new jobs created per new stores opening across from each other as per demand.."

From article, "McDonald's CEO Says Robots Won't Replace Workers. He's Wrong"

(The robots are coming, and they will take jobs, just as new technologies have since pretty much the day the wheel was invented.

CEO Steve Easterbrook has said that the chain's automation efforts won't lead to it eliminating human workers.

That might be true in the short term, but ultimately, it makes no sense for the company to pay people to do what robots do better and -- after a big capital investment -- cheaper. That does not mean McDonald's will be eliminating all humans in its restaurants, but eventually, there will be fewer of them.

"It's cheaper to buy a $35,000 robotic arm than it is to hire an employee who's inefficient making $15 an hour bagging french fries," former McDonald's USA CEO Ed Rensi said in May on Fox Business Network's Mornings with Maria.

That sounds like a dire prediction, and it could be, but pretty much all of recorded history suggests it's going to happen. What Rensi said simply makes sense. A tablet can take your order better, faster, and with more accuracy than a human. The same is almost certainly true of producing fries, burgers, and the rest of the chain's fare.
