On This Episode:

People have always been restless and curious, always looking for what’s beyond the horizon. That same urge now drives our fascination with space. But this interest isn’t just about exploration, it’s also about what we’d rather not face here on Earth. While we talk about living on other planets, we’re still struggling with pollution, greed, and constant conflict at home. Space, unlike Earth, doesn’t care about us. It’s empty, silent, and honest. It reminds us how small and fragile we are. Yet we keep imagining it as a new beginning, a chance to start over. The truth is, we would bring our same problems with us: division, power struggles, and selfishness. Technology can take us far, but it can’t change who we are. Still, there’s something real and human about wanting to reach farther. It’s part courage, part avoidance. We chase new worlds, hoping to find meaning or escape from what we’ve broken. But before we try to settle another planet, we should ask what kind of people we’ll be when we get there. Is the rest of outer space ready for us?
