so... The name of this website is pretty relevant to my experience (though it often feels more like floating in a void and everyone else who floats by just looks at me like a curiosity and then continues on by without ever coming into contact with me).

I'm curious, would it even be a good idea to attempt to travel to the planets that other people are on?

if so, how can the resources needed for that travel be acquired?

I think I wouldn't want to travel there but I've only come across one person in my life who I actually felt was near enough in space to me to feel at all. everyone else could just be made of some kind of dynamic state styrofoam for all I know. that one person is far away in the physical world though and I don't have the resources to get to them, emotionally or in terms of the f*****g ludicrous system of destructive exchange currently referred to as an economy.

what is this stuff? what is? what?????

Well, from the point of Ray Bradbury's characters
as they stood looking at their reflections in the Martian water,
"We are the Martians."

Backing up a bit ...

On one level, I can answer your question
and point you in the direction of getting more answers,
if you're interested.

NASA wants to put human beings on Mars.
So look into NASA if you like.
They're doing what they can to acquire the resources needed for interplanetary travel.
Literally. :)

Godspeed.
