Dear Cheap Astronomy – Just why?

Asking why the Universe is doesn't have to be a spiritual inquiry into purpose. We can look across the Universe and observe that things happen in very predictable patterns, following determinable and repeatable pathways of cause and effect which are always in the general direction of increasing entropy.

Dear Cheap Astronomy – Will we ever make contact with aliens in another star system?

Here at Cheap Astronomy, we don't think astronauts, taikonauts or any nauts will ever be exploring other worlds in person. There's nowhere we could go outside the Solar System within a lifetime and generation starships would just be a nightmarish Lord of the Flies in a tin can.
