Colonizing the moon, with the idea of going to Mars is a good idea.  The Moon is too close to Earth, so when Earth goes, it probably will take the Moon with it.
Mars is far enough away to survive it.


Why is the Earth gonna 'go'? Are you implying that global warming and pollution and overmining are going to cause it to explode?

They pumping Nitrous Oxide into the airducts over at HTC?

Spreading humanity is just good common sense.  You don't put all your investments in one stock.  You spread it around a little.

Lots of stuff could happen.  Asteroid strike, disease, war, etc.

Agreed. Something can happen and probably will. However, the way he put it, the Earth was on its way out, in a dramatic fashion that is sure to take the moon with it. Seems like a scenerio better suited for a double episode of Transformers.

Basing something substantial on the moon is a good idea. As noted earlier, it decreases the size requirements for launch vehicles substantially. Just look at what it took to get the Apollo teams back verses what it took to get them there.

Didn't anyone watch time machine the new one if we screw around with the mooon in a million years we'll have humanoid like mutant that will hunt us because we messed with the moon and  the whole sea went freaky and it destroyed life as we know it on earth. So don't mine the moon just mine asteroids :D

If the Earth is so screwed, why don't we do something about it rather than make grandiose plans with masterbatory undertones involving spreading our seeds etc. As if mankind needed to prove it is the biggest banana in the universe.

Anyway, I thought all that 'the end is nigh' environmentalism was bollocks anyway?

If for nothing else, we should go to the moon, Mars and beyond for the same reason Mallory climbed Everest.
