Some love the desert, some love the ocean, some love mountains, some love canyons, some love caves, some love volcanos, some love cities. Not everyone always wants to be in the rainforest or a coral reef or some pastoralist backdrop.

Whenever this comes up, it’s weird to me that people seem to not understand that different people have a wide variety of interests and tastes. Also, some people like making the barren into a lush garden.

“Why do people want nothingness” is a sort of earth-centrists’ strawman of what space inhabitation enthusiasts are passionate about, and also super factually incorrect about what space contains.

Now imagine a cave city on a volcanic mountain, with a view out of a canyon, over the desert coast...
