But as humans showed during the last half-century, a society that can
build nuclear weapons can also launch spaceships to the stars. Perhaps
within a century or so, humans will settle other worlds in our solar
system. Future inhabitants of the moon, Mars and other worlds will
perpetuate the species -- and, perhaps, communicate with aliens
regardless of Earth's fate.
"I can get rid of the ants in my back yard, but I can't get rid of all
ants everywhere because they're dispersed (around Earth)," Shostak
explained. Likewise, "I can imagine a future where a couple is living
on Mars. The guy looks at his newspaper and says, 'Gee Marge, look:
NUCLEAR WAR ON EARTH, EVERYBODY DEAD.' 'Gee,"' Marge says, 'that's too
bad.' "
