Cancer touches every family in one way or another. As other diseases are brought under control, cancer is set to become the number one killer, and is already in epidemic proportions worldwide.
A permanent base on Mars would have a number of advantages beyond being a bonanza for planetary science and geology. If, as some evidence suggests, exotic micro-organisms have arisen independently of terrestrial life, studying them could revolutionise biology, medicine and biotechnology.
It is hard to resist the impression that the present structure of the universe, apparently so sensitive to minor alterations in numbers, has been rather carefully thought out...The seemingly miraculous concurrence of these numerical values must remain the most compelling evidence for cosmic design.
Science and the Ultimate Reality: Quantum Theory, Cosmology, and Complexity
A universe that came from nothing in the big bang will disappear into nothing at the big crunch. Its glorious few zillion years of existence not even a memory.
That's been our bread and butter so, honestly, we're not that worried about it. They've got to guard us too, and we've got a lot of firepower.

You have to weigh the increased cost of electric service every month versus being without power for three weeks after a hurricane.
We run a 24-hour service (for passengers) and we also offer small-package delivery.
We're not jealous of the guy getting a million pound bonus. We just want out 6.70 pounds for God sakes.
For comparison, there was a nation over there and all they had was a grappling hook and a line, ... When they found something they would have to drag it to see if it would blow up. Whereas at the other end of the spectrum, we had the remote control robot that could take pictures and has all kinds of weapons attached to keep the operator himself from having to touch it.
