What if someone built a starship and there was nowhere to go but frozen vacuum deserts, gas giants and baking lava worlds.
Why?
Because building a telescope capable of locating and cataloging habitable worlds upset a small group of uneducated fanatics with lawyers.
That would be kind of sad. Not for the fanatics, but for the rest of us.
That starship and a habitable destination might be the only thing that prevents human beings from becoming extinct forever.
There were once two whack jobs who believed you could create a machine that could fly. What fools. Even a horse knew that machines could not fly.

You can't fix Samsara.
