Description
“Life is too fragile to be confined to a single planet. We must develop a backup plan.” Michio Kaku is a scientist with a Verne-like imagination, who has no trouble soaring through cosmic spheres at the speed of light. The renowned master of thought experiments considers in an exceptionally accessible way how and when humanity – currently at an energy development level of 0.7 according to Kardashev – could succeed in its efforts not to remain Earth-bound and not to settle for a step to the Moon. This, however, presupposes adapting Mars to our needs, exploring the promising moons of the giant planets, establishing transfer stations at the edges of the Solar System, and then heading towards the nearest exoplanets, which are already being eagerly observed by hundreds of telescopes. Kaku's visions of uncovering the mysteries of the universe, where we are certainly not alone, are based on advancements in robotics and nanotechnology, counting on fusion rockets and a fundamental enhancement of human intelligence, which has excellently adapted to changing conditions since prehistoric times. We have reason to be optimistic. Our stellar outpost around the yellow dwarf star type G2V will sooner or later face catastrophe, so let us embrace the future. Fortune favors the prepared!
