True but as far as i´ve grasped what you have said in the past learning to ride around in fancy looking spaceships is not really why we are here for in the first place. It´s more a thing for maturing the soul...shouldn´t movies featuring values like that of Florence Nightingale or mother Theresa benefit us more?
Well, duh, obvisouly one thing does not exclude the other, i´m just having a hard time seeing how technological advancement can help bring forth the good within us...help us to grow up, mature, appreciate life. I mean, does it really matter which planet we are on?
Clearly, space travel is an interesting thing it just appears to me that the "spacedudes" should focus on some more pressing matters first.
Or perhaps it is one of those things were they will not come here so we have to reach out and get it for ourselves, kinda like, we are not invited to the party going on at Saturn so we need to go there and crash a party our selves. Hm...i´m just rambling here now?!

The human fascination with space is the result of the fact that we all have been out in it.
Movies and books on space travel is in many ways reminiscing about our past---what’s wrong with that? Also every one of us will return to space---sci-fi is not only for bedtime stories---but a reminder of that fact.

Celtibero coming from someone who probably spent an hour coming up with that sentence---well you have the credentials equal to the rest of the Hockey pucks so I guess it’s good enough---

Maybe you've already answered this one, but here's my question regarding "We" vs. "They".
If we've all already been in space and through the soul catcher process, is there a "We" vs. "They" or is there only "us"?
If the former, what's the distinction? Is it only a matter of where we've progressed? Will we at some point be "They"?
Hope that makes sense. It did in my head.

In other words it seems that maybe god does play with dice.

There is No "they", No more separation please. We are all Us, connected through consciousness and Existing as the Existence.that makes up Every thing. There is No-thing that is lacking energy. We are energy and the Existence is energy, and all of this energy is connected, there does Not Exist "empty space" and there does Not Exist a void in Existence (or what is called the universe, that which is properly referred to as the Omni-verse) that would have Us diss-connected.

Otherwise I'd be on Saturn and not on this garbage dump.
I don't think you can cut in line and/or cut yourself a deal and/or hang on coattails.

We are all "space dudes" and We are all "space travelers". The Earth is constantly traveling in and through space, and is a traveling space, We are on this Earth, there-fore We are all ways space traveling.

Could an explanation of the line that is Being cut please Be explained. Earth is a place of magnificent beauty, though you are entitled the choice to mold the reality of this planet to Be viewed as that of a garbage dump, though the benefits from this thought process and these remarks are Not totally comprehended. Could it Be that you enjoy viewing yourself as a piece of garbage, ergo all of Humanity as trash? This is what was stated in the quoted text above written by the user that goes by JohnLear. I think of you as a puzzle piece to the beauty of this Perfect Existence even though you view me, yourself, and others as a piece of trash. Your perception is respected and accepted, all though it is Not completely comprehended as to why you enjoy viewing and referring to Us as trash.

Common symptoms of head injury include those indicative of traumatic brain injury:
loss of consciousness,
confusion,
drowsiness,
personality change,
seizures,
nausea and vomiting,
headache,
a lucid interval, during which a patient appears conscious only to deteriorate later
Symptoms of skull fracture can include:
leaking cerebrospinal fluid (a clear fluid drainage from nose, mouth or ear) may be and is strongly indicative of basilar skull fracture and the tearing of sheaths surrounding the brain, which can lead to secondary brain infection.
visible deformity or depression in the head or face; for example a sunken eye can indicate a maxillar fracture
an eye that cannot move or is deviated to one side can indicate that a broken facial bone is pinching a nerve that innervates eye muscles
wounds or bruises on the scalp or face.
Basilar skull fractures, those that occur at the base of the skull, are associated with Battle's sign, a subcutaneous bleed over the mastoid, hemotympanum, and cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea and otorrhea.
Because brain injuries can be life threatening, even people with apparently slight injuries, with no noticeable signs or complaints, require close observation. The caretakers of those patients with mild trauma who are released from the hospital are frequently advised to rouse the patient several times during the next 12 to 24 hours to assess for worsening symptoms.
The Glasgow Coma Scale is a tool for measuring degree of unconsciousness and is thus a useful tool for determining severity of injury. The Pediatric Glasgow Coma Scale is used in young children.
Mike is sitting with his back to the front door and remains distracted by Joe's story. One of the men that encircled Mike earlier walked into the pub holding a club behind his back. The man looked at Joe to acknowledge that he should make his move. The man slowly walked up behind Mike and hit Mike over the head with the club. Mike drops off the seat and Joe and the man pick Mike's limp body up and they carry him into a freight elevator in the back of the pub.
The elevator goes down several floors and stops. Joe and the other man pull Mike's limp body out of the elevator and leave him on the floor a few feet away and get back in the elevator.
CUT TO:
INT. CAVERN UNDER TUBE CITY -- LATER
A few minutes go by and Mike regains consciousness. He feels the back of his head and there is a little blood and a large painful lump. He looks around not sure where he is---then he remembers he is not on earth. He thinks to himself that there appears to be no one in the solar system he can trust. His sanity is teetering on the edge of madness.
He finds the strength to pull himself up and staggers a few feet before he straightens up completely. There is indirect light in the cavern with no apparent source, not bright just enough to see his way around.

Sleeper,
It was a cute story and all, but you can't really expect people to believe it when you include impossibilities in it. I PROMISE you that you would not be able to have sex with hot Uranian chicks after experiencing head trauma that renders you unconscious. I know it happens in the movies all the time, but losing consciousness due to a blow to the head is a symptom of TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY. It requires DIRE immediate medical attention, yet you somehow have sex THREE more times in the span of just hours after having TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY.
I am very confused at how any adult on this planet could believe this story.
