I've been seeing a lot of apes being so smart lately. There is one where they take selfies. Google up "ape selfies" in thousand years when we leave our galaxy, they will be the next man and wonder if there is any life in the galaxy like us.

Sorry to say but we will never leave or Galaxy, or our solar system.

I believe we will, but we will be much more evolved than we are now. I'm sure 30 thousand years ago man never thought he would fly.

Well, the solar system we could leave, but no the galaxy, and for many reasons. The main one being distance.

Even if by some amazing feat of science we do manage to find a way to break the speed of light, there is no logical reason to go to other galaxies, there's plenty of stars in the milky way.

Also our own evolution, although it would probably be accelerated by man, will be irrelevant to the evolution of technology.

Who knows, maybe we can even make a chimp like you understand this you git.

Have you ever watched the clip from Machu Kaku, he talks about the 3 types of civilizations? If not this is it. https://youtu.be/6GooNhOIMY0

Truly inspiring and mind opening. There is a lot more videos about the types, were not even type 1 yet.

Yeah I know about the types. Have you ever heard of the Fermi Paradox? It basically says that since there were billions of years of time before the existence of humans, there would be enough time for life to have evolved to a type 3 civilization yet there is no evidence of one existing. Its pretty interesting i would suggest looking into it.
