Quote: 'He recently made the news for announcing that he believes colonization on other planets and/or the moon is imperative to ensure the continuation of the human race.' ?!?!

IMO, this idea of colonization is totally ludicroas.

We must change the attitude toward the Earth and life itself prior to any advancement toward the stars. Certainly not with spreading our sickness throughout the Universe. If we are going to continue this nonsense, we would abuse other planets also!
