Coming up with new ideas to innovate using tech is increasingly difficult as we are running out of “Problems to solve”.

This is why we need to take to space - we need new problems to solve. Asteroid mining and establishing a base on the moon seems a good near-term challenge.
We really dont though. It is one thing to say we need to get out into space, but its another to pretend like we dont have sustainability problems here on earth that will require similarly huge financial input. Lets get our house in order here before we change the conversation once more to how great those billionaire space jockeys are.
