      I wonder if we would be able to steer the the sun into hydrogen clouds in order to refuel. If we are going to be thinking in time scales of eons, we might as well figure out a way to refuel the sun. If we can figure it out, we could have the ultimate hot rod last us for tens of billions of years.

It might even be the case that we need the whole planet and its ecosystem to survive. Could we even survive without the moon and its tidal force? How about with a different rate and size of rocks crashing into the Earth as cause by other planets? Don't underestimate how fragile we are in the long run.

      I generally disagree. Time is a resource like any other. It's finite over the lifespan of a single individual (duh), but it's renewable on the timescale of the human species.
      But I agree, we have to prioritize. I however don't see how that's related at all. The whole video assume there is an actual need to relocate humanity.
      Unless we take human evolution in our own hands (with gene editing or whatever) or without serious ecosystem shaping, there's no way of saying whether the bare minimum for human survival could some day become anything less than the entier solar system.
      Or maybe what you mant is that moving the solar system is so slow that we'd be better off not moving it at all and leaving the problem for future generations?

      Evolution is a lie. There is abundant evidence that debunks the theory of evolution.
      First of all, there are zero true transitional species.
      Every single living thing can be classified as a eukaryote or a prokaryote, a fish or an amphibian, and so on.
      If evolution was true, then there must be species that are a transition between two kinds of living things.
      If evolution was true, then there must be species that are a transition between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, between fish and amphibians, and so on.
      But there are none.
      See, in order to be a true transitional species, a species must contain organisms from two different kinds of living things.
      There is no other possible way to bridge the evolutionary gap between the different kinds of living things.
      For example, a transitional species between fish and amphibians must contain some organisms which are scientifically classified as fish and some organisms which are scientifically classified as amphibians.
      But there are no species like this.
      The fact is that there are zero true transitional species.
      Secondly, there are zero transitional organs.
      If evolution was true, then there must be organs that are a transition between two different organs.
      For example, according to the theory of evolution, lungs evolved from swim bladders. So there should be an organ that is a transition between a swim bladder and a lung.
      But there is no organ that is a transition between a swim bladder and a lung.
      These are just some of the many evidences that prove that the theory of evolution is a fairy tale.

      On the scale of a human lifetime a million years may as well be forever. Even on human civilization scale a million years is as good as forever. But on most other scales it really isn’t that long. Geologically things will have barely moved on Earth. On stellar evolution scales a million years is hardly anything. Our own sun has 4-5 billion more years and it’s fairly short-lived compared to red dwarfs that will keep on for several trillion years.

    I absolutely love the snowball effect that this could have for human expansion through the galaxy. One Dyson Sphere makes the solar system our spaceship. As we orbit the galaxy backwards, we colonize another solar system by terraforming its planets, and we build a second Dyson Sphere around the new star. That star then gets its own Caplan Thruster and begins orbiting with us. Both of these solar systems can then colonize 1 more system each, for a total of 4 habitable solar systems. Those 4 then become 8, then 16, and so on. Exponential growth could have us owning the entire galaxy if we wanted to do so. Imagine that. 🤩

    Since G-type stars like the Sun never actually use up all their fuel- they end up puffing *most* of it off during the Red Giant phase- the beam of energy shooting into the sun would stir the stellar mantle, ensuring the star burns its fuel supply more efficiently, thus extending the lifespan of the sun that way too.

      Well its the only choice since:
      1. We might die if we enter the asteroid belt
      2. Humanity will cease to exist without the sun ( go too far, we’ll freeze. go too near, free human barbecue for Satan)
      3. Moving the sun may seem harder but it will be worth it since we’ll be able to bring the other stuff in our solar system with some cool resources

      It is estimated that when Andromeda merges with the Milky Way Galaxy that there will be no solar collisions due to the vast distances between them. The main problem I see is in being able to accurately predict a cosmic apocalypse millions of years in the future in time to be able to construct a device that would move our Solar System out of harms way in time for it to be of any use to save us. Reducing the mass of the sun to extend its lifecycle may be viable option to pursue as that would be a clearly foreseeable goal which could be developed with an achievable goal in mind.
