Yes, new stars are being born all the time. There will be plenty of places to live, long after our Sun is dead and gone. Have you ever heard "Humans From Earth" by T-Bone Burnett? It's a favorite of mine. It's about humans moving out into the universe: "We come from a blue planet light years away Where everything multiplies at an amazing rate We're out here in the universe buying real estate Hope we haven't gotten here too late We're humans from Earth We're humans from Earth You have nothing at all to fear I think we're gonna like it here..." (and it gets better... go find it) Thanks, Corey. Yes, new stars are being born all the time. There will be plenty of places to live, long after our Sun is dead and gone.

“We come from a blue planet light years away
Where everything multiplies at an amazing rate
We’re out here in the universe buying real estate
Hope we haven’t gotten here too late

We’re humans from Earth
We’re humans from Earth
You have nothing at all to fear
I think we’re gonna like it here…”

Loved your Earth license hair. Looks like a mug shot from when you were driving drunker than Nick Nolte. Also, I believe we might be past the time where we need to see Stephen Hawking, maybe on your next video, you can cut to his FUTURAMA cartoon likeness. And about space travel, sure it's important, I get it, our Sun will eventually burn out. Then what? For that matter, won't the entire solar system die? Are new stars being formed? (not counting what happened to Jupiter in the movie 2010) About your video, you say one of our threats is nuclear weapons. But nuclear weapons don't kill people without other people pushing the button. (noted exception being Joshua, the WAR GAMES computer) It is Humans that are a big threat to Human existence. And it is the same Humans that are using the planet like a port-o-potty before we have an exit strategy. And you want to send these same Humans out into an unsuspecting space? Corey Gomel p.s. ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS EXCEPT EUROPA ATTEMPT NO LANDING THERE USE THEM TOGETHER USE THEM IN PEACE Another great video. Loved your Earth license hair.
