What if we never travel to the stars, discover new worlds, find other intelligent beings, and star wars, star treck, futurama, etc instead of being science fiction, are fantasy?

Mankind isn't meant to travel the stars. That's for bacteria.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

There's enough traveling to do within our own solar system to keep us busy for a quite a while.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

The thing is I feel dreaming of flying 200 years ago was not totally pointless because airplanes, zeppelins etc would be inventedOriginally posted by Elok

But when mankind realizes that we will never travel to the starrs, explore new worlds etc, that we are stuck on earth, or earth + mars at most, there will be some kind of depression.I need a foot massageComment

errrrrr.......... How many people do you think go on living solely for the hope of one day visiting Alpha Centauri? Not many I'll wager.
I don't see why we have to assume that traveling to another star is so utterly impossible. If you had a whole lot of cash you could build a ship with a nuclear reactor for internal power, recycle waste for food, put some couples on board to breed and then just shoot them onward towards Alpha Centauri with the expectation that it will take several generations to get there. See? It's not impossible!
Haven't some of our deep space probes reached speeds greater than 100,000 mph?"I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end!Comment

It's not the individual aspiration, it's the way the idea of expansion powerfully affects the spirit of a people, the way an entire society views itself.
