Do you think it will be possible for humans to colonize other planets?

I've always heard when I was a child that humans would go soon to other planets and start new colonies terraforming the environment. Do you think we will be able to achieve this technology?

Of course it will be, but not in the near future. The technology is not so well developed. We were able to reach the moon and Mars, so of course we will be able to go whenever we go and eat there..breathe and etc. I think it is 99% possible after all we achieved, why not ?

I think that is also possible... The only problem is that we'll not achieve it in the near future. We are developed but each time that we develop more, we are destroying the environment quickly and faster, because our technology is more efficient. So, aren't we going to be destroyed just before reaching the ability of colonize planets or develop a more advanced technology?

I think we can colonize other planets. We have achieved a lot in space technology and space travel. Now we are searching for water and oxygen in other planets. If we find water and oxygen in other planets or moons, then surely we will be colonizing those planets. But my question is what is the need to colonize other planets as we have a beautiful planet earth? We are living in earth and we a vast space here to accommodate the future generations also. But we are polluting the earth and depleting the natural resources of the earth. That is why we are in need of another planet. My own opinion is that we should stop exploring other planets and start to concentrate in our planet.

That will be possible but in a LOOOOOOOOOng time. We are not yet as developed as the makers of Ufos which can travel in a swift wind-like way. It looks like their crafts are powered by certain type of air. I believe though that there are other Beings other than us out there somewhere in the universe.

No, I do not. But, at one time, people thought it was impossible to cross the ocean, or even to visit a near-by city. Two groups of scientists are needed and they have to work together. First, they have to keep pushing to understand what is out there, not billions of light years away, but just behind the realm of the known universe. Then, the technicians take over. They have to invent new and better ways to move farther than we have ever been.
