History has demonstrated over and over again that true explorers don't fear the unknown ... in fact they embrace it.

The author of the article is obviously satisfied with her morning Starbucks, 9 to 5 job, her cat, and a warm bed to sleep in at night.

Thankfully, there are plenty of folks for whom that hasn't ever been good enough ... and thankfully it's those folks who have historically charted the course for humanity.

 

The author of the article can crawl back into her bed ... nobody cares what she says or does ... Elon Musk (on the other hand) is busy every day - changing the world.

 

Underlying everything of course ... is the fact that we'll eventually have to leave this place ... as the Sun goes supernova and Earth turns to ash.
