      I never understood the popular fascination with outer space. When no mans sky was announced I thought I was missing something

      Then it came out and the nature of the general disappointment made me realize that most people just haven't really thought about it.

      exactly--it's this vague impression that space travel is analogous to colonial exploration when it's more like polar exploration

      best case scenario you'll find some difficult-to-retrieve resources, worst case you'll find nothing, either way it's bitter & uninhabitable

      what you will not find are lush jungles, ancient cities, uncontacted peoples, etc....

          Maybe when they're able to go to other solar systems one out of a hundred planets will be habitable and interesting.

          Maybe--but I think that's both much further in the future than ppl expect, and that the odds are much slimmer (1 in 10,000 is generous)

          I assume that by the time technology has developed enough for extra-solar travel (probably not in anyone's lifetime)...

          we'll also have the technology to parse what planets to visit.

          I think that's a safe assumption, yes

          It'll still be 1-in-10,000 or something like that but at least we won't have to check them each one by one

          People don't think about how much our conception of beauty has developed according to our evolutionary environment.

          We like flowers because we eat fruit etc. On a planet we didn't evolve on, I fear that beauty would be hard to find for the human eye.
