  • I love this narrative that space colonization is about getting the “elite” off Earth after they’ve supposedly ruined it, leaving the rest of us behind. And then what? Are the elite going to sit inside a tiny capsule on Mars for the rest of their lives, eating potatoes and drinking recycled urine?

    If an asteroid were about to impact Earth and I had to choose between the elite escaping to another planet or humanity going extinct, I’d gladly let the elite survive to restart civilization elsewhere.
