      One day rich people will be able to live in space… eventually there will likely be a colony on the moon or mars… but I wouldn’t want to live there.

      I think so, yes.

      But, I hope we don’t have to do that, because what we have here is very pretty and we must do all that we can to keep it that way. The green in the trees and the blue in the oceans, none of that exists in any of the planets we know…

      We need to look after our environment and maintain it for the next generations to come! 🙂

      I am also sure they will. We will have countries probably in space, and we will be able to go on holiday there! It will be very expensive, but I reckon it the future it will be cheaper once we all start doing it! It will be like going to Disneyland but with more stars!! We would have to be careful that there were still people managing our Earth and taking care of it. We can’t all up and leave to space. Future generations will still be born on Earth so we should make sure we look after our Earth too!

      Yes! In fact, one could argue that this is going on now – people live in space in the international space station for over a year. Astronauts may not be considered ‘normal’ – but it shows that one day it’ll be possible to go to space and live for a very long time for even non-astronauts.
