OK We've been here 6,000 thousand years and have 6 Billion people livving on Earth, with cities and farms taking up like 80% of the good land and our population keeps getting bigger (If 1 couple has 1 kid then 1 Billion couples have 1 billion kids) So what do you think

Mars I guess except it kinda just floats there and isn't very stable and has no atmosphere so we would have to live in caves and stuff until an atmosphere is developed. A space station...in space....would work except no gravity so people would loose muscle mass and bone strength too fast.

I thought of this when thinking about the good old days of playing Ultralord/Overlord whatever it's called.

We could probably make some kind of base on the moon, wouldn't be too comfortable though. The amount of oxygen needed for a manned Mars mission would be huge, I don't think that we'll be going there anytime soon. I believe that our best chance is to fix this planet and control birth rate.

There would most likely be a ton, ton, more deaths when the popluation rate is evident, due to wars, natrual disasters, etc.

I think eventually we're going to find a more suitable planet to colonize than the ones we currently know about.

I'd say the moon and then Mars. One interesting thing with Mars, even if Mars had an atmosphere that could support human life, the planet lacks a magnetic field, and you'd still be confined to areas that are shielded against solar radiation for most of your time.

Hey, i live in Iowa we is smert! Lol but seriously, i do live in iowa and believe it or not we are one of the smartest states in the US. Ever heard of ITBS? Iowa Test of Basic Skills?? Anyway i do not think the moon would be suitable because of to many asteriod impacts.
