From here to there

For many people, science fiction is about space ships and ray guns and technology that doesn't yet, or can't, exist. I don't see it that way. Sure, I like the spaceships and the other world stuff. But what I see is an experiment where people are in a condition we can't explore in current life and then they are tasked with how to survive, or grow, or overcome some obstacle.

It's always about the human condition.

So I am intrigued with the process of how we as a species can transition from the way we are now to become a space going race.

1. What will we need to change to have humans living on other planets?
2. Are we willing to make the changes?
3. How do we start to make the changes?
4. How long will it take?
5. Where do we go?
6. How do we get there?
7. What do we take with us?
8. Why do we do it?
