Re: are we alone in the universe?

I agree that we dont know what new things we will find when we venture to other star systems, good things and not so good things

and by the same reasoning, we dont know what things (new types of matter or energy, or celestral objects) will cross our planets path, some of which might threaten our existance, if we sit on our hands, stay here on earth, and wait to see what happens?

the unknown is part of the threat, and part of the logic that spreading life around as much as possible is the best path to take, to ensure that life itself does not become extinct.
