Why do you assume there would be no kids? How else will we populate our solar system.
- flyinglizard 6y agoI remember the times where colonizing the solar system was a means for our collective survival, not an endgame for which we irreversibly change our society. That aside, we could populate the solar system just as well with people who live a healthy century. It only takes a few months to get to Mars with the current technology.
- antepodius 6y agoWe could populate it equally well with people who live a healthy half-century. And think of the progress that would be possible with that sort of population turnaround! Will you join me in making this dream come true?
- adrianN 6y agoEventually there would be a lot fewer kids. The new worlds we can colonize scale quadratically with the volume of space we can reach, but the number of potentially procreating humans scales cubically. Although I'd assume that we have left our biological bodies behind before that.
