will we ever be able to escape this rock and find another planet once earth becomes unhabitable in a billion years, some suggest the large moons of the solar system like Titan, Ganymede etc. but once earth's oceans evaporate, those moons won't be in the right window of time yet for the habitable zone to shift to them, so we have to go outside the solar system, am I just pessimistic or does the search and travel just seem completely impossible with the fragility of life and the laws of physics

>the fragility of life
Life has existed for over 3.5 billion years and has survived a series of catastrophic global events. If there's one quality to life, it's that it adapts, evolves and ultimately grows from it.

why is it so difficult to find earth like planets
all that is needed is a magnetic field, an atmosphere that's not too thick or thin, solid surface, oceans, temperature between -20 to 50, oxygen and carbon dioxide
how come it be so rare

We have a billion years. We have only just entered the space age. Once we exit this dark age by exterminating the Jews, forcing shitskins out of white countries, and removing degeneracy, space exploration will accelerate. Unfortunately, this won't happen in mine or your lifetime. We were born in a dark age, best to just accept it. Maybe we will get to see Starshot return pictures of Proxima b, but that is about everything we will get to see. That is the harsh truth, sorry.

Because both of you are just pulling numbers out of your asses.
I'll play the game too and say the most difficult part is a breathable atmosphere.
It should exist only on planets with the same kind of life evolved here on Earth.
An Earth like planet with a non breathable atmosphere anyway is still a lot easier to colonize than mars for example.

Your utopia of a one world, one race civilisation is impossible. Only whites and some Europeans are able to achieve such feats. If we send niggers to colonise other planets that assures our destruction as a species. They don't contribute anything, they just freeload off of us. Don't worry though. The west will collapse, just like Rome did, and whites will spark the space age, while race traitors like you will be left to burn on Earth.

Kill yourself, demoralising Jewish piece of trash. For all of modern history the white man has dominated the planet, brining peace and civilisation to land which was otherwise overrun with barely human monkeys running around doing fuck all. Space IS the white man's home.

What's rough is that Titan's atmosphere will evaporate as soon as the Sun expands to Red Giant phase. Triton and Pluto unironically look like the best bets, underground cities. We have to deal with cryovolcanism though. Make sure we our infrastructure withstands the quakes.

By 2100, our child AI will be leaving the solar system in every direction in thousands of tiny "starships" the size of a .223 cartridges. By 2200, biological humans will only exist (if at all) on Earth, purely to curate the fauna and remnants of physical civilization for curious virtuals, who are capable of sky-diving on the sun with their foglet bodies. By 2300, the AI/humanity civilization will have relocated to the much more fertile Alpha Centauri star system to build Dyson Cloud bases around all three stars.
In a billion years, AI/humanity will have either suffused all of the Milky Way and its immediate galactic cluster or created an entire universe of its own to inhabit, which is probably the destiny of all civilizations and the cause of the Fermi Paradox.
tl;dr: I wouldn't worry about the sun expanding.

We're doing it this century. It turns out you can make a booster out of cheap steel and land it. Even if the US suddenly loses steam, China would catch up in a couple decades. The second stage doesn't even matter that much but it might be reusable soon too. Once Mars is self sustaining you'll have a self selected population of rugged explorers. Who knows what they'll set their sights on next. Maybe everywhere, for all time

If it's scientifically possible, it's do-able. Smartphones would've seemed like outlandish conjecture in only 1980. When I hear OP complaining about the dangers of the sun expanding, it's like hearing Jules Verne complain that no balloon will ever be built large enough to reach Jupiter.

Unironically it probably is. On our plant it taken the form of the browns not being able to advance beyond low medieval culture or mentality. We have the horrible mix on the planet of 1/4 rich, enlightened, high tech, post-industrial nations. But still something like half of the population is living in a early to mid-industrial society. with the bottom 1/4 living in a pre-industrial Feudal society still.
Look, you can't blame soft hearted liberals for getting fucked up by the woke mind virus. Because a safe, healthy lifestyle leads to generations having the comfort to develop an overabundance of empathy, too much. This makes them feel weird about being able to door-dash 20 dollar coffee when their phones can show them live-feeds of active war, famine, and destruction happening elsewhere.
Our only hope is that we can reach the next cultural step where general people can be aware of wider problems, but not mentally poisoned by their own haywire empathy.

No.
Science ended in the 20th century. There is nothing left to discover, merely engineering problems. Ascending above Kardashev-1 is impossible, space colonization is impossible and aliens don't exist, that's why we see none.
There will never ever be another fundamental expansion to our understanding of reality that will let us go outside the bounds of what we have known to be possible since the 20th century, theories of everything that is possible and all physics were already solved in the 20th century, every theory that hasn't been proven since the 20th century is BS
String theory, quantum mechanics, eternal inflation, CCC, supersymmetry, changing constants, parallel universes, fifth force, aliens, branes, m-theory, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, what came before the BB, hubble tension, higgs field, negative energy, casimir effect, chaos theory, consciousness, grand unified theory, telescopes, wolfram physics, closed timelike curves, universe's size, anti gravity, functional information, quantum gravity, plasma, time crystals, entanglement, quantum tunneling, AI, MOND, quantized inertia, ToE, fine tuning, quintessence, entropic gravity, wormholes, naked singularities, multiverse, holography, warp drives, solitons, particle colliders, QFT, etc. All of theoretical physics is a BS waste of time, there's NOTHING left to find or invent, we hit a brick wall, we'll never advance past Kardashev-1 (controlling the energy of a planet) period let alone survive cosmic events cause the Cosmological Constant gonna destroy everything

an earth-like planet requires a goldilocks zone, liquid water, a magnetic field, no tidal locks, gravity of 9.8 m/s^2. That's a lot of conditions for humans to live comfortably.

Probably. Its just a matter of time. Hard to predict if its gonna take 100 years or 1000 since so much depends on our understanding of the universe/technology we develop. And of course also the overall state of the humanity.
Outside of Earth is definitely possible, another star system seems reasonable given we will have proper energy source and develop few tricks, but its not like we have any proof that any civilization ever did it. Another galaxy, highly unlikely, like ever. For now we are stuck on this rock.

I think long before it becomes inhabitable they'll push for colonies on mars or what have you, the profit margins are far too great to miss out on - imagine a whole other planet's population.
If you think multibillionaires were wealthy now just wait until they ascend with ~2x the Earth's population. If we have any common sense, as common people, we'll do our best to stay on the ground.
