Astronomy, Interplanetary Travel and Mars Colonization

So we actually have stars that are roughly the age of the universe, that's about 14 billion years. Being that life began a billion years ago on Earth and humans are only 200 - 300 thousand years old, we literally just got here. Imagine what we would be able to do a few billion years from now. It shouldn't take us nearly that long to figure out how to produce worm holes. Highly likely that some other species is living like Star Wars while we are stuck on the same rock.

We will wipe ourselves out first.

Definitely. That's likely to have occurred before by another species, but there is plenty of room for there to be countless species that didn't.

It's a mental tease to think about the age of our sun compared to other systems and their potential for evolution. The dinosaurs were not even here long really when you put everything to scale.
250 million years of their existence to 14 billion.

The dinosaurs were only here for a week and we just got here 10 min ago.......lol

I’m aware. Ending white supremacy is probably a good start to not wiping ourselves out.
