RE: What To Expect With humans Becoming Multiplanetary
First of all, let me congratulate you for a well written post. Then, do you really think the idea to explore the possibility of human survival in order planet stemmed from the belief that the earth has a expiry date? Granted that it is truism that the earth has expiry date due to our destructive nature, I really do not think moving into anothe planet will save us.
However, I really don't want to believe scientists are exploring this possibility out of mere fear that the earth might end up being destructed by and large our actions. There are practical measures that can be put in place to at least reverse the destruction, mostly by emitting less pollution and taking care of the environment generally. Moving to other planet is really not an option for the human population.
Lastly, I do not believe that the world is overpopulated. The earth can sustain more population that it is currently holding and the idea of overpopulation is just a political propaganda as far as I am concerned. The main problem that has been pointed out is inadequate resources, the same resources some people are hoarding for unborn generations. Greed is the game, not overpopulation and moving to another planet will never solve our problems. It will probably complicates them

The earth having an expiry date is the least considered factor in the establishment of an ET colony - of course, the earth isn't planning to come to an end anytime soon.
But human nature has always been tilted towards curiosity and experimentation, and that's among the driving forces behind space exploration.
Thanks for the comment
The expiry date is somehow linked to human destroying the earth through their activities. So, you have an idea what I was talking about. I will somehow agree if curiosity is mentioned as the major factor instead of seeking solace in another planet after the anthropological destruction of the earth.
