>I thought Extropians liked space exploration.
It seems that most future oriented people are space enthusiasts, yes.
>Would really give up our
dreams for space to play a video-game about space?
Speaking as a space enthusiast, absolutely not.
>Would our recent
space tourists pay millions of dollars to watch a simulation model of
themselves going into space?
Don't think so.
>Or put more simply, I want to go into space!
Haha! I'm with you Harvey.
>I don't see how a good
simulation would make me want to stay on earth.
I wouldn't mind participating in a smart simulation, but space tourism will become so streamlined and aesthetic that our innate 'spirit of adventure' will not keep us from stepping out.
