Why is there so much fanatics talking about wanting to terraform a planet millions of kilometers from the Earth when you have unlivable shitholes like the Australian outback that could use terraforming?

By "bad" you mean something on the level of Earth being smashed into bits by a moon sized asteroid.

Terraforming the Australian outback, even after Earth has been irradiated by full on nuclear war and now inhabited by gigantic city stomping mutant dinosaurs, would be easier than terraforming Mars. But the space suit kiddies dont want to hear that. It messes with their sticky masturbation fantasies.

You don't need a moon sized asteroid impact to kill all of humanity. There might be events we haven't even considered capable of killing all of humanity. In addition, even if humanity survives civilization might not, and may not redevelop for some time.

Anon. Australasia has absolutely no political will to modernize it's internet infrastructure. What makes you think a project this long and expensive will ever be greenlit?

Because we Faustian
We prefer hard mode
And travelling out into space accords with our spirituality more than fixing earth
There are parts of Australia that periodically flood, and yet no one is talking about harnessing water flowing out into the sea and turning it inland through a series of tunnels.
There are basins that recieve 20% of the rainfall next to basins with 1. It's called an underground tunnel. The middle east has had them for years.

This also. I'm currently near the middle of the most populous city in Australia and my internet periodically crawls to a halt, and actually became worse when the government upgraded it.

We let the Br•toids test nukes there in the past and have let the Americans have a signals base there for decades. The Aum cult may have detonated a nuke there in the 90s. (Presumably underground).

Sticky masturbation fantasies make the world go round.
Why don't you try diverting their fantasies to this?
