Why is it so important that we terraform other planets? Is it really a desirable thing to spread across the solar system and beyond like mold on stale bread?

Why is it so important that we terraform other planets? Is it really a desirable thing to spread across the solar system and beyond like mold on stale bread?
- evincarofautumn 10y agoWell, it’s important to the mold.
- Mchl 10y agoGasp! Could we be... just a means for mold to spread across the universe?
- fnord123 10y agoIt is important because we have the power to wipe out all life on this planet. We need to spread further than our destructive power or face the end of our species. If you are happy for the end of the species, then that's fine.
- igf 10y agoWell, it's too damn crowded on this planet.
- vocatus_gate 10y agoI'm currently in Antarctica, the giant cold dead place, and I can assure you that being crowded is one thing we do not suffer from.
- zamalek 10y agoIf we can terraform Mars, maybe we can revert the terraforming that we have been doing on Earth (without risking the species on our first attempt at corrective terraforming).
