That is only if we still die which I hope we have moved past then. Perhaps we simply make new humans when we have the need.
Would eternal life not be boring? And ever growing population also leads to issues, even when populating infinite space ...

1) Literally infinite permutations of entertainment out there. 2) Birth rates have been falling steadily for decades. I don't think it'll be a problem in space unless you think space Catholicism is a thing.

> that missing SpaceX engineer what?! Can you elaborate?
That was merely an example of what could have happened and might have been covered up since then

What is the original story that you're talking about? The other poster and I are just curious what story you mean. Can you elaborate?
Is there a long-term graph of this? I believe the number has been nonzero since 2000, and wanted to see how it's changed over time.
Here's one up to 2014: http://www.arcaneknowledge.org/science/spaceflt.htm Number of living humans who have walked on another world: https://xkcd.com/893/

right, it's clear that you meant it as a hypothetical example but what does "since then" refer to? We don't know what you mean by "that missing spacex engineer". If I Google that I get nothing: https://www.google.com/search?q=missing+spacex+engineer What is the original story that you're talking about?

there's also a Chinese space station but it's not currently occupied. The last mission past low earth orbit was Apollo 17. As far as I know, SpaceX are the only ones planning on taking crews further out, first with a mission around the moon, and then possibly Mars
> Apollo 17 Jeez, 45 years since the last person walked on the moon.

It’s all a hypothetical. Reread his post again. It’s not perfect grammar, but should be growkable if you read it again.
It's a bit sad, actually. You'd think we have progressed further…
