Migrate to the moon? Thread

I've heard so many predictions: by this year, i will rule the galaxy, and by that year, this will happen...blah blah blah...
But what's really interesting is the Human race migrating to the moon. Earth will run outa space at some point, and we will either have to:
#1) mass killings
#2) migrate to another planet/moon
#3) there will be some nuclear war, and human population will be a ot less.

which do u think will happen?

here's what i think.

ok fine, mass killings was sorta silly. lets go to the next one. migrage to another planet? i don't think that's possible because we will run outa water. take space exploration for example. whenever water is taken outa the earth, it goes and never comes back. if, however, it is consumed inside the earth, the good ol water cycle will kick in, and make us more water. so i think we will at some point run out of H20.

Nuclear war? possible, but i don't think this will happen either. the world is too "we want peace!!!"-ish but we all know they wanna conquer the world. 1 country will fear another...lets say the country umm....united cheese of cows has 100 nukes, and they wanna conquer the country chicken-land...they will fear all the other contries with nukes that might defend the chicken-land place. the president dumb enough to declare war anyway was saddam. i can't believe he thought he can declare war, and invade a country without the whole friekin world doing anything about it.

i'm outa ideas. wut dya think bout it?

I think we will just die out

and bush's space project going to the moon? what does he expect to find there? santa clause with a water making factory?

or a deadly alien race of pretzel-people

would't it be cool if we accually dig, and find that like 100 feet down under the moon, there is all cheese? dig deeper, and we find a whole race of cow-people. dig deeper, we find rocks...

what if we're accually a microorganism on a bigger being? what if we can zoom in enough to an atom, (X1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000) and find that there is accually a whole new universe? then later we realize that we're accually a germ on a giants toe-nail?

the real reason we should be going to the moon is becuase we are a race of explorers, to sit on earth is not what we should be doing, we have space out there waitng for be explored, we need to expand and we WILL expan, becuase thats what we do

The moon is merely the first step, i think its great, ok bush is doing it for power, but the fact we are finaly moving our asses , etc..

it will be great :/

How about immigration into space with space colonies?
Big, cylinder form colonies, with 3 mirrors to reflect sunlight into the colonies, spawning several miles?:D

actually the moon has water... its frozen but its still water... don't really know how it got water but it has ice but my first pick would be another holocaust... that way 1) I can go to war 2)we will/might live through a massive historical event... but most likely man guess is that something happens with America either we get a huge homeland attack or we try to go on the offensive against countries and other countries start attacking us... or Armageddon in which case I guess our population density would be the least of our problems...

Also, the colonies would ofcourse be devided into groups and orbit around the Lagrange point in space(I assume you know where it is!)!

yeah i got directions off mapquest

Also, if we migrate to the moon it should be to vonbraun, we'd name it VonBraun City! VonBraun is the moons biggest crater I think.

... I wonder if its named after Eva Braun in which case HITLER MUST BE HIDING IN THE MOON!!!!

what would we do after the moon ran out of room?

anywhere else is far enough away that without huge ass space ships we just have more people on earth by the time the ship got to mars or wherever.

it would have to be a nuclear war, as every other time a war starts theres allways more ppl born than that die.

the moon can hold a couple a million, it will be fine for so many years

but remember that everyone their is gonna start making babies too!

and like little bunnies becasue the moons pretty boring and theres not a lot to do.

Don't forget the moon of saturn! (one of them any way ) it is supposed to be inhabitable. I want colonasation!

you mean habitable?

I thought it was inhabitable? Well whichever you know what I mean

I couldn't have put it better myself!

"but remember that everyone their is gonna start making babies too!

lol probably not, most of them would be career people, so they wouldn't want to waste their time with kids. ...and remember a little concept known as contraceptives?

and what makes you think there'd be nothing to do? you could have bars n stuff up there, just like around here moon-pool, you'd have to have some damn heavy balls

-jEFF

yep. bunnies. then they will mutate into carnivour-rabbits and take over the moon...

Heres what will happen, bush will bomb some tiny european country, the rest of europe will get pissed off and start a war against america. Russia will get bored and drop a nuclear bomb on asia, japan will send a bunch suicide bombers to australlia, and while everone is killing eachover the eskimos from antarctica will create some super-huge-exploderising bomb that blows everyone up.

Well, the bit about the war against america is probably true.

i saw a program, where the reckond, moon people, would be all tall, with long arms n legs, n look REAL lanky.. and would mostly likely die if they came to earth from the gravity change

Im scared of the moon now

haha nah, they would be like all lanky and friendly people, DESENTENTS OF TEH HUMAN RACE

if anything I would have thought they would have kinda short arms and legs because there is less gravity... gravity isnt pulling on their arms and legs to stretch them out... but what do I know about sciency stuff...
