All this talk of space and other planets has really helped to bring me back down to Earth. We already have an atmosphere here: how great is that? If you want to see other life-forms, all you have to do is walk out your door and scatter a few crumbs. Until humans figure out how to build a proper flying saucer, the cost of getting off this teeming planet is, well, astronomical. But we don't have to leave. We can continue sending messages out there and wait for a reply. In the meantime we can put a little more effort into keeping what we have in better condition, right? I'm going to let outer space be more about inspiration, not perspiration.
