The correct answer to this question is particularly critical in relation to the most pressing challenge of global heating. It is my contention that our over-estimation of what we can achieve with science could be a very dangerous mistake in relation to pursuing impossible goals like colonising earth-like planets in other distant solar systems while neglecting to work on more humble technology that has real potential to help slow global heating by lowering our overall carbon footprint.
