He's right. If we work on the problems we have now we can do it....though I must say it is a very slim chance given the fact that there's just too much diversity to come to a consensus. If you guys ever get a chance check out Plan B 3.0. You can google it and get a free copy (legally). In any case our only chance of reaching the stars is by moving to a new planet....Mar's could be a good choice. Adding certain elements from Earth into what is already on Mar's could re-establish itself so that it could once again sustain life. But that's not happening any time soon so thats a big problem. But in any case whoever thinks there was ever a chance of reaching distant stars by simply moving really fast is terribly mistaken. Space is just too big to move around on a rocket. We need to really think outside of the box and figure out a way to bend space and time. Once we do that the sky's the limit.
