Serious question do you think humans can colonize other worlds and remain recognizably human? I can imagine humans giving rise to a multitude of civilizations but those systems being necessarily isolated and demanding that we become alien just to survive in them.
We'll become very different post-humans of some sort. But that's OK. As long as we have fun, stay virtuous, and protect free speech. ;)
