Although people talk about colonising different planets in our solar system such as Mars, I just don’t see it happening.
Apparently the furthest we’ve been is the Moon, but It’s questionable whether the landing on the moon was fake (which I think it is).
The planets in our solar system are too different to the conditions we’ve adapted to with living on Earth. For example, Mars doesn’t have a thick enough atmosphere to protect us from the radiation the sun emits, plus the temperature is too cold. Venus on the other hand has such a thick atmosphere which makes it scorchingly hot, and the gravitational pull the planet has on itself would crush you instantly if you were to step onto the planet. Plus it rains sulphuric acid, which obviously isn’t nice.
I know there are other planets that may be somewhat ‘suitable’ to possible support life. But think about it, if this planet cannot support life on Earth as efficiently as it used to (mainly due to mankind) for us to have to move to another planet, then how would another planet support life any better.
No planet can possibly have better conditions for us to live on than the Earth has. That’s because we’ve evolved over millions of years and adapted to live in these specific conditions. Yet we’re still struggling on this planet.
The sun will lose all its hydrogen to fuse into helium in around 5 billion years, so it will become unstable and swell into a red giant. The Earth is screwed then, and by then I believe humans will become extinct - if we carry on the way we are anyway.
Space is our home, it’s all around us, the atmosphere of our planet is the only thing that separates and protects us from space. The solar system is just a bunch of planets orbiting the sun from its own gravitational pull - just like all the other stars we see in the sky, the same thing happens.
I don’t think any of the planets are suitable in our solar system for colonisation, and the closest star apart from our sun is 4 light years away which means that if we somehow created a machine to transport us to the equivalent of traveling around the Earth 7.5 times in a second (the speed of light) then it would still take 4 years to reach that star (for the search of potential planets to colonise.
Come on, you really think we’re going to advance that much in the time we may have left alive, (not saying we won’t) but there’s a lot of evidence suggesting we won’t. Like, it’s 2018 and we haven’t even found a cure for cancer yet.
We’re DOOMED xD
(And it’s our fault)
But yeah, there are many unanswered questions and mysteries of the universe. It’s so big, vast, and we’re just a really small dot amongst trillions of stars just in our galaxy - and there’s billions of galaxies out there. The stars we see in the night sky are all in our galaxy, it’s crazy. Interesting stuff!
3.728.277.600.000.000 (three quadrillion seven hundred and twenty-eight trillion two hundred and seventy-seven billion six hundred million)
Did you know that a quasar is (as far as we know) the brightest object in our universe? Of which 'Quasar 3C 273' shines at a brightness of 42,042,000,000,000,000,000 (42 sextillion 42 quintillion) lux or lumens per square meter. That is about 429,000,000,000,000 (429 trillion) times brighter than our sun.
I do think I heard this on Vsauce's channel before, interesting fact though :O
My mars miniature is only 1.5 blocks away
So recently, I got very interested in watching videos related to the unknown universe: all kinds of theories and mindblowing discoveries
In one of the hundreds of videos I watched, one video was talking about the colonization of the solar system
What if this is actually our goal?
We will go extinct probably within the next one billion years
What if the whole universe is some kind of game and we are supposed to colonize our solar system and eventually the entire universe
Within the next 1.5 billion years, the habitable zone will move outwards. The surface temperature of Mars during these times will resemble the Earth during the last ice age: warm enough to support life
Keep in mind that the observable universe is 94.605.284.000.000.000.000.000 km in width (ninety-four sextillion, six hundred five quintillion, two hundred eighty-four quadrillion)
The actual universe that we are supposed to colonize is 150 sextillion times bigger than the observable universe. This means the entire universe is 946.052.840.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000 km in width (nine hundred forty-six octodecillion, fifty-two septendecillion, eight hundred forty sexdecillion)
If we were to travel that incredible distance at the speed of light, it would still take 315.350.947.000.000.000.000.000 seconds (three hundred fifteen sextillion, three hundred fifty quintillion, nine hundred forty-seven quadrillion), or 9.999.712.930.000.000 years (nine quadrillion, nine hundred ninety-nine trillion, seven hundred twelve billion, nine hundred thirty million)
Funnily enough though, the universe will literally die in 10.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000 years (one googol years).
Light could travel the distance mentioned above
1.000.028.700.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000 times (one duovigintillion, twenty-eight vigintillion, seven hundred novemdecillion).
We got plenty of time to colonize, what are we waiting for?!

And 500 years=1 sec for our planet measurement. So we've been living for just a few seconds huh.
I'd rather buy a house somewhere in Greece and take pleasure from this 0,02 sec

Assuming necroposting is allowed as this thread purely exists for fun and is purely informative
My calculations showed me that an incredible 810.469.220.000.000.000.000.000 (eight hundred ten sextillion four hundred and sixty-nine quintillion two hundred twenty quadrillion), this is truly amazing if you ask me
Woopsiepoopsie, completely forgout about this comment

I just played Skyrim for the first time in years and already somehow I got a child hiring hitmen on me. This game is crazy.
