"We must continue to go into space for humanity. If you understand how the universe operates, you control it in a way," Professor Hawking said, adding that "we won't survive another 1,000 years without escaping our fragile planet."
Maybe the USA cut NASA funding too soon? I call mars!

Yeah, making it another 1000 years is pretty up in the air as it is. It's likely humans will still exist, but some cataclysm is likely to have thrown us into at least one dark age by then unless we are off the planet ASAP.
