If that were true, the Americas never would have been settled by European colonizers. If that were true, we never would have gone to the moon because of the Cold war with the USSR. Exploration can and will happen during periods of political turmoil and upheaval.

Untill we blow the planet up sure. But we're being pretty irresponsible down here and I don't see you having survivability out there for a while without the stuff earth currently provides. We spend a lot more on military than we do on space. Between planetary warming and social violence and capitalism, the pot is boiling. Shrugs
