RE: TribeSteemUp Bi-Weekly Question - Do you believe that there is inherent order in nature or is it all chaos and chance?
No, but I did read a lot of classic sci fi.. Heinlein, Asimov et all, Le Guin.. Perhaps I missed that one. An intercepting concept but sometimes.. often.. I feel that's wishful thinking, that we can evolve to something better than. Transformation sounds beautiful, but can't we just go back to the trees?
Have you read the Word for World is Forest?
I don't want to leave Earth. I quite like it.
Earth's the right place for love: I don't know where it's likely to go better.

They made Childhoods End into a 3-part series for SyFy channel.... but the book is always better.

I’m sure there were those who wanted to leave the African savannah and those who didn’t... those who wanted to jump in ships and find distant lands they had no idea existed, and those who didn’t.
Whilst we’re not all wired that way as individuals, clearly the trend for our species is we want to expand and explore.
I have no doubt that we will one day populate the galaxy and maybe beyond. We may be very different beings by that stage. Maybe we’ll evolve to be pure consciousness, or maybe we’ll be floating creatures with no limbs living in zero-g.... who knows....
interestingly, if all the things and people that pollute the earth went to Mars, Mara would become inhabitable and Earth would become an Edenesque paradise again. There’s something poetic and ironic about that for me.
