You already are - space is where the Earth is. You are in a very nice and very inhabitable part of it, BTW.
Space travelers for the next several thousand years will yearn for the comforts of Earth (until we create habitats which are as nice)… it’s going to be a rough and tumble frontier for ages
If you haven't read The Green Hills of Earth (1947), this might be a good time. Fair warning, you might find something a little stuck in your throat near the end.
