37. If something ever happened to the Earth, would there be any possibilities of humans and animals living in space, on the Moon, or on another planet? Or, if we just felt like not living on Earth anymore, could we live in space? (A K2S Question)

Eventually there will be millions of people living in space, on the Moon and on Mars. In 50 years there may be enough people and biospheres (farms) that if something happened to the people of Earth the human species would survive. Our space people might come back to Earth to start Earth settlements.
