[We should build Moon Base Alpha] The Conversation: Matteo Ceriotti: Wandering Earth: rocket scientist explains how we could move our planet

Even if we can prevent a global warming apocalypse, our planet won’t be safe forever – the sun will one day expand. So should we try to move the Earth to a wider orbit? https://t.co/Dq3K0Qt8YY

The science in this article is interesting, but Mr. Ceriotti leaves the best for last. If there’s any human life on Earth when the sun starts to expand, the best thing we can do is move the entire population of the planet to Mars. I much prefer the idea of moving us all to the moon. That way we’ll be floating through space like the team of Moon Base Alpha in Space: 1999.
