Obligatory grumbling about species that's super-excited about moving to other near-habitable planets while incapable of keeping its own perfectly habitable planet in that state.

But, I guess by the time our descendants figure out how to travel 4.2 light years they might have figured out how to terraform Earth back into Earth. Unless we unterraform Earth so badly they never get the chance.

Obligatory reply that feeding the imagination of space exploration encourages organizations who's goals include further developing knowledge and technology that can better serve mankind, up to and including protecting this planet. ;)
