Yes, but kamikaze is a Japanese word. So is hara-kiri.
Seriously, are we so risk averse as a society that we cannot allow explorers to risk their lives in a noble venture?
What happened to the Pilgrims? Jamestown? Lewis & Clark? The Franklin Expedition?
Exploration of the High Frontier WILL be hazardous.
I will gladly take the risk if I have the opportunity.
We are talking about the greatest step in expansion of our species that we have ever had. The Solar System is incredibly HUGE. We could have a human population in the trillions with colonists scattered from Mercury to the asteroids to the moons of Jupiter in a few hundred years.
The technology WILL evolve. Humans NEED the resources of the High Frontier. Somebody WILL colonize and exploit those resources.
Where is the imagination? Where is the adventure? Where is the ambition? Is our culture that dead?
