Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Just to touch on a problem but there.
Ahhh no... We can habitat space. We really really can't live there.
We can't really give birth or develop in space, gravity unlike ours will eventually deteriorate our bodies, even on Mars you will go blind and start developing clots before too long just from the slightly lower gravity. And that's nothing of the radiation we are blocked from here on Earth.
The list is long and bad. We are adaptable but mostly on Earth adaptable. Able to survive climates and regions not everything ever. We can probably eventually figure out space but we can never just live there.
So when we destroy the planet we might really just take ourselves out too.
Of course we can. We could build a giant rotating shielded space station. We have all the technology, we just haven't done it because it's expensive.
I studied theoretical astrophysics as part of an earth and space exploration field.
Trust me, we really don't just have all the technology. That doesn't answer a lot of problems and you are assuming our level of science.
We might be able to figure out a good chunk of it if money is of no cost but that's no guarantee.
Man not even to talk about material cost. It would take us decades.
Name a few problems.
Yeah I am not inspired to actually bother answering that if you are coming into this without an expectation of an actual conversation.
It sounds more like you want a fight and that's not what I'm doing.
Space is not an easy answer. Even if you just want it to be.
I don't really like "trust me bro" takes on things.
Yeah and you are doing the same. I pulled my credentials you just don't want to be wrong cause it hurts your feelings.
I'm asking for examples of how it won't work. I've given examples of how I believe it would work.
No.
Removed by mod.
It's a conversation. Are you really this upset just cause reality is less magical than science fiction?
It's not a peanut gallery. It's the rest of the users on this site. The whole point of being here.
The idea of living in space was on topic that you brought up.
You were wrong about it.
If you are upset then get off the Internet don't take it out on other people assuming you are the only one who is right.
