Extra-Terrestrial Activism
Should Man Venture Into Space & Other Planets ?Leave Mars for the Martians.
There exists just as many disadvantages as advantages associated with "discovering space"; Other than the "usual suspects" such as internally imbeded human habits; mans selfish nature......or State Ego (Some countries Ego's outdo reality....im not going to mention names...and that doesnt mean i like some countries more than others), Fight to remain dominant or gain power & recognition (theres a possibility of discovering resources out there......), display of strength (showing off ........ so human)........Advantages are many (to remain idiot proof, i will refrain from using any scientific language) In Irish; We could discover great resources out there, we could test our abilities and learn from mistakes, who knows we may meet other beings out there and learn from them, it could give us a chance to re-live life one more time on another planet only this time try to do things right....etc etc.....then we have the cobwebs......its so damn expensive; why dont we spare this money to save the poor....why should we explore due to our capitalistic instincts, earth had enough, we wasted it, we pay for it, why do we have to go out there and destroy more, its risky and dangerous, I dont even want to imagine getting stuck somewhere in a space ship, getting blown up and my remains floating around due to lack of gravity, never to be recovered, why do we need to prove a point of superiority? and of course....why do we want to spark a war with the extra terrestrials ??
The image above is thought to have been captured by the greenpeace movement that has outdone its activism skills by getting them to the Martians before anyone else :-) . Speaking about country Ego....if Kenyan politicians are so great.....they should have already thought up a year where Kenya sends its first space ship (I have been inspired by writings from my Ukrainian friend "Volodja": http://volodja.blogspot.com whose country has invested on space industry). Lets take a moment for world peace. I would like to hear your thoughts on if humans should go to space (forget the part about Kenya, thats hallucinating.....but i bet we were the first country to come up with public service vehicles (mathrees/matatus) that move as fast as space ships, have mobile discotheques, police aversion utilities and where theres always space for one more).......and oh for those who were in Nairobi when the IOC (International Olympics Committee) had made its visit; Mr Sports Minister actually proposed Kenya for the 2017 Olympics or was it the 2012 (LOL).

That picture just left me D.E.A.D
BTW I think we should send all Kenyan politicians to Mars. They might have a bit more luck with them there.

I am fascinated by space travel (and a great fan of science fiction and would want alien life to be found in my lifetime) however, I think spending billions of dollars on space travel while people on earth are dying of hunger and want is obscene.
Great post and blog, btw.
