For anything to become reality, the 1st step is be able to imagine it. Also a big problem can be attacked by solving a small part of it, see what's left & repeat until remaining bits are easy. Over time, what used to be 'impossible' becomes easy. What matters is deciding what to focus on for the foreseeable future, and spend resources wisely. See eg.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstellar_travel#Wait_calcu... Yeah a human mission to Mars, colonizing the clouds of Venus, asteroid mining or Dyson spheres may not be achievable now (if ever). But exploring the problem space, or having a good look at the required engineering, is. And may be cheap as well. |
