But obviously...
At this point it is easier to colonize the ocean of water than the ocean of space.
But when that time comes, I know whole groups will leave Earth as fast as they
can to live life the way they want to.
It will be very interesting to see what develops over the ages as colonies
grow and spread out into the galaxy.
I am sure the experiences of living in such groups on the ocean will provide
at least some idea as to what will happen and how things might be done.
Seeing as 75% of Earth is covered in water, that's a lot of space just
waiting to be used.
