Hello,
Although I'm not necessarily a woman of science (but simply in the sense that I'm not hooked on it) I do consider that the discoveries of new planets similar to ours are really a turning point in our lives.
However, what I don't like about this topic is the fact that scientists' main goal may be to provide human beings with a back-up plan.
As for space tourism, I find it really disgraceful. Not only do we spoil every new destination that we visit, but we also want to go on with the devastation! Tourism itself is a blot in the landscape wherever we go- as cities, villages and natural sceneries finally end up losing their essence.
That's all there is to it.
