What are you reading, Patrick?0:04
Well, I came across this website on space development, and I'm looking at a piece on colonizing other planets.0:08
It's a sight for science fiction fans then.0:16
I mean that people living on other planets is just fantasy.0:20
I don't think that mankind will ever be able to inhabit other planets.0:24
That's stuff we read about in novels or see in films.0:28
Actually, Stephen Hawking and a whole lot of other distinguished scientists disagree with you.0:32
And so do I, for that matter.0:37
They believe that space colonization is not only possible, but also necessary.0:39
Perhaps people will one day be able to live on other planets.0:45
I can see the possibility in that.0:49
What I can't see is why experts think it is essential.0:51
Look, the way we've been treating our planet, there won't be a here much longer.0:57
That's why it is important for the human race to find another home.1:03
Shouldn't we just stay and fix our home?1:07
If there are some plumbing problems in your house, don't you fix them?1:10
You don't just move to a new house because of a few leaky pipes.1:13
You're absolutely right.1:17
But the problem here is, according to some experts anyway, that our home is beyond repair.1:19
Environmental organizations have been saying for decades now that not only are things not improving on Earth, but they're getting worse and worse.1:25
What a pessimistic view.1:33
Our future can't be that gloomy.1:35
I'm sure we've made some progress over the years.1:38
Maybe, but not enough, apparently.1:41
Look, I think you're reading too much into what scientists say.1:43
The whole idea of space colonization is just too unreal.1:47
That's what they said about space travel many years ago, didn't they?1:53
