There is a popular theory that suggests mankind has never been visited by an alien civilization because all intelligent civilizations wipe themselves out before they get the technological point of distant space travel.
Are you optimistic that the human race can survive long enough to develop sophisticated technlogies such as distant space travel? This could be anywhere from 500 to 1000 years away, do you think we can survive as a race, or will we be wiped out either by war, disease or natural disasters?
Do you see the human race becoming so advanced that in the distant future, many thousands or millions of years away, that we will be able to spread across to inhabit other planets, as surely this is the crucial task in long-term survivial.
Your thoughts?
