I like Nico BUT I think Clea would have been a better choice . Nico should have been saved for a Runaways event or even the A Force event . <| sep |> But then you have time to mute them ? ??<| sep |> Is it though ? A popular view of space exploration from sociology is that under the Western capitalist democracy , interplanetary colonization will NEVER happen because there is a lack of immediate pay off , and no guaruntee of any pay off in the ' long run ', which might not even be within anyone ' s lifetime . It is also the most peaceful times if you only count European societies . There are plenty of unrest and suffering almost everywhere else in the world . Not to mention the accelarating technology is only feeding into empowering those in power even more , perfecting the police state they are establishing . So ask yourself is it really an amazing time to be alive ? Is it ?
