This is why I believe there are *divine* reasons why God created vast distances separating us from other worlds and civilizations.
So we keep our bad habits to ourselves!
First Ark to Alpha Centauri was the first book in all human history to move the stars out from arm's length reach... all the way out to 50,000 years reach.
In other words... we have to ask ourselves the serious question: are we ever *intended* to reach these far away places that twinkle in the night sky? Should guys like me be motivating the human species to build this kind of ark?!
Nobody tells me, because nobody really knows!! I feel very, very alone in this dilemma. I just wish we had more knowledgeable scholars in our world. I really do. Come back Isaac Newton. Come back Galileo. Come back Albert Einstein...and anyone else I've missed out
