Why was this downvoted? It certainly is appropriate to ask why smart people want to believe that the kind of narratives we know here on Earth can be extended to space. Intelligent people know this isn't possible, so it worth asking why the desire to have these stories is so strong. A narrative is a sequence of events that happen in a definite order. Humans can not have that kind of experience as they spread to space -- everyone's narrative will be relative to themselves, but they won't reconcile with each others narratives. This is well know. The question is why even smart people prefer fiction that ignores this fact. It's worth asking that question.
