Jeff Bezos says we need to leave Earth

Makes a lot of sense, to move to a body that has 2% the volume and 7.4% the surface of the earth.

Like leaving an overcrowded apt and moving into a microwave oven.

So you are saying that you have to haul even more to reach your 16 ton quota for the day?

How long is a day on the moon anyhow?

Any holidays off?

It will be the only way to escape islam.

Lex Luthor needs to leave Earth. Ask Brainiac for a lift.

If we ain’t got off this one by then none of the rest matters.

Just a footnote in some alien archeologists book on
extinct planets...

[elbook]

If it pays. Otherwise its just a temporary ego booster thing for rich twirps.

It may be Bernie from the crypt, y’know! But I am glad that you have a ranch to utilize to hopefully stay out of the reach of tanks.

“The alternative is stasis,” he said, adding that without space settlements, societies around the globe “will have to stop growing” due to environmental and other constraints.

The good news is, Bezos will only be around for maybe another 20 years, flappin' his big fat mouth about global warming, and the need for more H1B visas -- but meanwhile could wind up getting elected President of the United States. Thanks ETL.

Thanks ETL. Here's a video, I think it's the one I watched yesterday on the Roku (can't check from this machine) -- very interesting reasoning by Jeff Bezos regarding photovoltaic power and whether we should spread out to other planets.

Typical leftardy.

SJW’s always;
Lie,
Project,
Double Down.

This is an example of SJW projection. The truth is *we* need him and his fellow travelers to GTHO the planet.

He’s right. We’re due for a large asteroid collision. Few, if any of us, will survive it.

[Peter W. Kessler]

That’s the first image that came to mind.

Thanks!

"We" aren't going anywhere. While I agree that space colonization is the only way for the species to survive an otherwise fatal planetary disaster, it's going to be a very long-term project. We need a couple of things first: a destination, a means of transportation, and a means of extracting the resources necessary for a population of air-breathing, pooping mammals to achieve at least sustainability and better, growth, because that's how biology works.

Every colonization project in human history has met these prerequisites. And right now even the baby steps look like tremendous leaps. Doesn't mean we can't take them, but it does mean we'd better not imagine it's going to be easy.

Another C02-is-toxic-humans-are-evil lunatic.

[Chickensoup]

all in favor of Bezos leaving raise your hand...

wow! the planet tilted!

[right way right]

I like a visionary, except this guy.
Mr. WAPO can step off any moment as far as I am concerned.
