Space travel?
Best I can do is a remake of the lead-up to WW2 on top of a remake of WW1.Born to late to explore the world.
Born to early to explore the cosmos.
Born just in time to finance a pizza from Domino’s.
Every space age humanity setting starts after WW3. Deal with it.
What else is going to drive corps to build faster rockets? Without WW3, the profitable strategy is to keep building the same rockets, just cheaper & crappier.
Just think about the profits that weaponized ftl technology would bring!
Maybe because making they more capable makes them cheaper by an exponential rate?
It was supposed to be nuclear fusion. Cheap plentiful clean power.
It was supposed to be renewable energy, and it almost was until the fascists slammed the brakes.
Cheaper, more plentiful, and cleaner. Plus it doesn’t take decades to increase capacity like nuclear does, and it won’t become less safe and efficient due to climate change like nuclear is already starting to.
I hope you know there is a difference between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion, because your comment doesn’t read like it.
Oops, misread as fission lol
The Chinese were right to say that “living in interesting times” was a curse…
I’m pretty sure that the origin of that curse was the Counterweight Continent, actually 😉
Nope, it’s McNazis.
I am not lovin’ it.
as the curse says, “may you live in interesting times”
Best we can do is America 2.0 fascist boogaloo
The thing is… we do have space travel.
As a means to extract minerals and in a way to bring more profits and destroy the earth faster yes.
That ancient chinese curse.
