RE: Lunar Ark

Here I have another view to offer: It is questionable, I say, to spread as urgent something that seems to spring more from a primal human fear: the fear of the tides, of storms and cold, heat or cosmic influences.

So... You act as if "fear" is a bad thing... I'm sure you know this, but I would retort that "fear" is what keeps us and lots of other species, alive on an individual scale. It's why we naturally always assume the worst and why we act irrationally scared when we hear a rustle in the bushes: it's probably just the wind or a rodent, but it could be a tiger...

On a species-wide scale we've evolved into social creatures who are naturally attracted to that which promotes survival of the species, like the opposite sex or edible fruits, and are repelled by that which is detrimental to the survival of our species. "Trans-phobia" isn't an easy thing to eradicate, and I bet that the above has something to do with that. But we still try. And if technology gives us the tools to enhance our chances of survival, why wouldn't we at least try?

I do agree 100% with your opinion on the marvel that is the photograph taken by Voyager :-)
