Oh cool, oh cool, oh cool!

New Solar System Discovered! One that is Sol-structured, but smaller, with larger gaseous planets, and possible room for inhabitable (or inhabited!) planets closer in around their reddish sun.

DO WANT.

Today's question: If a habitable, earth-like world were discovered tomorrow, and you had the opportunity to hop on a ship and become a colonist, would you do it? For me...absolutely.

Oh! Good Question!

I'd have to say no, sadly. I have multi-obligations here and am also not 100% medically speaking. Plus, being a first wave colonist is a heck of a lot of work, and the politics would be a web of deceit and pain, which would also drive me nuts since I'm as politically astute as the average log, unless it was all run under military-like fiat which would also not suit me.

Frontiers are wonderful things for the brave and the bold. At the moment, I am neither.
