I too, agree I'd rather fuck than stand on Mars. Although I suppose that depends who's up, and when I'd be on Mars.
My point was more; right now, we're not so much better than animals. Sure, we've got ipods and diaphragms - but we're just chillin' on Earth in our own safe, breathable atmosphere.
When we test the measure of imaginary aliens, what is it that makes them advanced, and intelligent? Their technology, sure - But it's the fact that that fake alien is able to go to and land on another planet [via technology] - something we have not done yet.
I just personally feel that once a human lands on another planet - the most unnatural thing the Universe can host (A life form escaping it's own planet under it's own technological power to land on another planet where that form of life was never meant to exist) will finally put us in a separate category than animals.
For fucks'sake, even monkeys, dogs and cats have been to space. But
nothing (From Earth) has walked on another planet yet.
Edit: Obviously I'm slightly joking. I don't think we're 100% comparable to all other animals. I just think it would lift the human race above and beyond anything this planet has seen before, to put a human foot on another planet. A planet that maybe had it's own indigenous life millions/billions of years ago.
We could be those aliens. Not animals.
