If time even exists.

There is this queer alternative explanation that says there is no time passing at all, but just an infinite ammount of frozen moments that get followed through like the picture cards in a "Daumenkino" (flip-book?).

I do not laugh about this anymore since I realised long time ago that it is quite similiar to the expalnations of the hum,an consciousness in Buddhist psyhcologxy, and my own meditation experiences with kind of altered states of mind. When the flow of time came to standstill, and indeed their formed an idea of everything existing in just one moment, one mathematical, endlessly small point. Its impossible to catch it in words.

I do not believe anymore that the world is just of a structure and nature and essence as our senses and our constructing intellect seem to tell us. These concepts are crooks, and they run our daily life and help us to orientate ourselves in it like Newtonian physics help us to play the balls on the pool table. But like there is another level of physics infold in these - quantum physics - there might be a truer truth, an more inner essence of things and existence in what our senses seem to tell us. Or as I sometimes saids in the past: the key to discovering the outer space out there maybe is to discover and understand the inner space inside our mind. Because maybe outer space and inner mind are one and the same.

What sense would it then make to think in plural anymore...?

People will colonize Mars about the same as they do Antarctica.

I made a timeline with a 50 years something between(I don't know the exact mathematic word for it)

This timeline has its start in 1957..the next something on the line is 2007. How far have we come from 1957 to 2007...next something on the timeline will be 2057...Where will we be in space exploration and spacecraft development, 100 years after Sputnik 1 ? 2107.....2157....could be added to the timeline..

Antartica with or without global warming?

After the ice melted in Antarctica most suitable land I think would be underwater anyway. Nothing left but mountain tops.

A manned mission to Mars by 2100 seems a reasonable goal too me. We're expecting NASA's Project Artemis to send people back to the moon in another three years. We're going to be setting up camp in the south polar region to exploit its resources which will allow us to sustain long term lunar deployments, develop fuel sources to propel vehicles to Mars and to learn more on the effects of deep space on the human body. We may not be around when we get to Mars. But we get to be part of the beginning of some exciting times on the moon. Getting to see that again gets me all tingly like

Until we can learn to take care of this planet, it would be a crime to contaminate another planet with humans.

Id say we have already started to contaminate other planets considering the amount of probes we have deliberately crashed onto other planets surface especially mars.

Im also wondering if we would ever go back to venus, i know the Russian probe that made it to the surface in the 70's only lasted minuets but if we could build something to over come the temprature and pressure thats on the surface maybe we could use that as a study for what could happen on earth with a run away green house effect.
