For centuries humans have lived on earth and growing expanding and claiming this giant space rock a home, but as time goes on planet earth is becoming not enough to sustain mankind’s way of living. Now with the technological advantages of the 21st centuries there is an answer to this problem and it is interstellar travel. With this one form of research mankind can thrive and exist beyond the stars. The earth simply cannot shelter the ever-growing human race, therefore not having interstellar travel is a problem.
If earth continues to become overpopulated mankind could go extinct. As of right now, life on earth is very sustainable, but mankind is growing at an exponential rate. More than 4 babies are born every …show more content…
There are currently countless things that hinder mankind’s way of living; sickness, disease, food shortages, global warming, lack of space due to human expansion, but through the power of interstellar travel, it is possible that many of these unfortunate occurrences could become a thing of the past.

Since the dawn of time, mankind has always traveled to different lands and colonized to expand, but now humans populate nearly every inch of the earth’s surface, which could eventually lead to a serious overpopulation crisis. While the point can be brought up If the earth becomes over populated why not just limit the amount of people allowed to live and kill off the extra just like in nature.

That way humans can moved and grow as a species without being inhumane. With the help of interstellar travel, humans would have the means to continue expansion to a endless extent. Mankind could grow, colonize, and continue to live without ever having to worry about overpopulation. Mankind as a species could spread throughout the galaxy and live in comfort, using resources and materials from various planets to continue to expand until the end of time. Christopher Columbus would never have discovered America if not for colonization, and we will never discover new lands without interstellar
