This is a false equivalence. Birds fly; they do not live on Mars.
>the Earth was an inhospitable wasteland.
The Earth did not become hospitable through human effort, as is required if we are supposed to live on Mars.
- sfeng 10y agoBirds also don't launch satellites in space, but every time I fire up my GPS our effort on that front is appreciated. Your argument is that we can only do things other living things do? There is no doubt we would be doing something novel here, I don't think anyone is saying any different. The question is if it's A. possible and B. worth the effort.
