The END is sooo NEAR that....

...invading and occupying, and colonizing Mars is a foolish ambition because I don't believe Mankind has time enough left, to escape self-destruction by immigrating to the hostile Void, off-planet, with a large enough gene pool to insure the continuence of even His own species.
The most we could accomplish might be to make a deposit of clonable DNA in an impermiable security box, with instructions for whomever finds the artifact eons after Our Demise, to re-constitute Our Remains for archaic exhibit. I would hope that the Chinese People's Government thinks of this idea first, so that the most successful race of Humans, and Panda Bears, and Whales, could represent the rest of us to Posterity, if there ever is any.
