DPSN: Space – not something we should take for granted

Space - be it personal space, the figurative concept, or literal outer space where the stars and planets live - is not something we should take for granted. The ability of a mere human to fathom the breadth and depth of outer space is limited. As Star Trek states it is 'the final frontier'. Stephen Hawking has said "I think the human race doesn't have a future if it doesn't go into space."
