I am definitely not underestimating how great Earth is. But we will learn how to make other places comfortable too. The trick is to remember that technology will improve. Living in a tin can on Mars would suck. Living on Mars with fusion power, biological enhancement, nanobot construction, etc, etc, etc is an entirely different story. Personally, I'd love to live on a ship. I'm aware I was probably born 100 years too soon.


Well, even here in Europe humans would freeze do death in winter without rudimentary technology - its the same problem, just more difficult.
