Only to arrive at an atmosphere-free and magnetic-field-free planet that features continuous and unavoidable flesh-roasting cosmic radiation in unsurvivable doses.

Must we really continue to entertain these fantasies about leaving Earth for greener pastures?

“Must we really continue to entertain these fantasies about leaving Earth for greener pastures?”

Yep, we have peered at quite a few planets we will never actually be able to reach now and still haven’t found a green pasture, or even a planet capable of growing a pasture at all. It’s an exercise in wishful thinking at this point.

The planets are always greener on the other side of the
Galaxy...

While this is a good idea, there is still the gravity
well to deal with. We have found a solution but it’s
not the answer.
