Pretty sure that none of us will even be around by then, but I guess this is something you can think about when youre on the can.
We need another method of reaching the stars than our current, less than the speed of light restricted means we have now. The nearest star may be only 4 light years away, but in real time, that means more like 70 thousand years travel. Creating large biodomes in space is fraught with problems too, such as radiation, meteorites and micrometeorites, unseen black holes and dark objects, and on and on. Dont comment about wormholes, either. Theyre only theorized mathematically, and even then, only very small ones.
