yes, we should go to new worlds. We should try to keep some sections the same, though it will be difficult. We'll also have to adapt to the new location. Like, if we lived farther away from the sun, we would likely have larger eyes to compensate for the lack of light. If the planet had a lower gravity, we'd become taller. Still, we should do it.

Also, if we go to another planet, we should be careful. We might experience a new disease that would be extremely deadly. Or, if the planet has life, we might bring some to them.

I think expansion into space would be a great thing. We'd be less likely to be wiped out if a comet hit the Earth. We'd likely have more unity on planet surfaces (though maybe not with other planets) and might provide us with a great deal of knowledge.

Yet I have one last thing to say. If we are to terra-form a planet, we need to do extensive research about the planet. We may discover life based on Helium for all we know. Sounds far fetched, but it is a possibility. Life is resilient and can survive in the most unlikely of places.

Anyway, great thing, should be done ASAP. IMO

Don't fear the unknown, seek to understand it Formerly Halofan48 Fun game!!!
