Extinction or Emigration: The Human Future in Space
Extinction or Emigration: The Human Future in Space
George Elias, Author, Breakout into Space
Monday Night Philosophy explores whether homo sapiens can avoid extinction by expanding the biosphere to encompass the entire solar system. Elias, who is currently working on New Genesis: A Modern Creation Story for Those Leaving Earth, advances reasons why we will become a space-faring species. He will present his arguments, followed by a Socratic dialogue with George Hammond and an open discussion with the audience.
