interesting you post this...just the other day i went along on a school trip with my grandson to the chabot center, an observatory/planetarium/space museum. the kids were given parts to play and teams to be in as part of a "space mission" to "mars" which, according to the story line, was staked out with space village in 2031, and the year they (kids) were travelling in was 2076. this is also how they train astronauts, by simulating conditions, environmental and on board. whether the moon landing was all done on earth in one of these simulations, or real, is open to speculation i guess, though reports from individual astronauts (including encounters in space with ETs and their crafts) suggest they actually went there - or were they drugged and programmed to imagine something that never happened?
it occurred to me as i watched that an old pet theory of mine, that the PTB, as PJ calls them, are planning on evacuating earth and leaving most of us here to survive as we will...but many will be recruited, just as in the settling of colonies by the big empires of the 16-19th centuries, to be the worker bees in building a new home - on mars? maybe, maybe multiple destinations. there are apparently multiple planets suitable to our survival and nasa is working up its first warp drive as we speak...
personally i would be happy to explore a new pristine earth-like planet, but maybe "lizards" don't care so much about natural beauty, only survival and comfort!
