    Musk here says that it's important for humanity to be come a multi-planetary and multi-stellar species because the sun will die out. Which is true but that's 5 billion years from now.https://twitter.com/JoeMillerJr/status/1524079837425676288 …

        Yeah, but it's only a half-billion years until the sun is so hot that the oceans boil off. It's later than you think!

        You have to wonder how much Space X is contributing to global warming while trying to solve a crisis 5 billion years in the future.

        You gotta start somewhere. Besides they could unplug the simulation in this part of the galaxy on a whim. Or charge more for Solar Blue.

        Also reveals his TOTAL misunderstanding of current and near-future time scales, technologies, resources in the interplanetary travel/habitat space. He read the Culture novels and KSR's Mars trilogy and totally missed the point, and failed to read KSR's Aurora. Fix this planet 1st

        Yeah but he has much less time than that if he wants to get credit for saving mankind from the death of the sun.
