'Trapped'


Adam Frank thinks humans are extremely unlikely to travel beyond the solar system for a very long time. The implication:
While our children’s children’s great-grandchildren will live with ever more powerful technology, they will also live ever more intimately with ever more billions of others in this, our corner of the cosmos. Looking back and forward, my bets are now on...human genius, ambition and hope to rise to the occasion. We will have no other choice.
