Why We are the only Species to Travel into Outer Space.

Why We are the only Species to Travel into Outer Space.

Last night, while looking through tv channels I checked information section on “One Strange Planet” show. I have some issues with that show, but the above title is essentially what I read on the show’ subject matter. I didn’t watch the show. My input to the question is as follows:
Firstly, it would be harmful to Earth to have multiple species competing for its resources. You would not gear a planet to have more than one species like ourselves or it would be death and destruction, because that’s how we are, especially in our earlier development. We are territorial and we fight enough amongst ourselves, without having another capable species to try and cohabit with.
It is certain that in another place and time we have existed on another planet and I feel certain that we have already existed in this solar system but we have a tendency to be overly greedy and we may well have drained a planet to our own destruction as well as the planets’. We are capable of doing so unfortunately.
If we were capable of creating planets that support life, it would be necessary to make adjustments if there was a species that was necessary to the planet yet also unwittingly capable of planetary destruction. (Our activities are essential to a planet, provided they are balanced and harmonious). So, if we were capable of creating a planet that supported life, we would need to try and reach this species, we would need to pinpoint the period where that species began its own undoing, as well as the planets’ and we would insert an adjustment that would alter its downward course.
It would therefore be fundamentally crucial for the species to comprehend its environment, its self and outer space. Requiring all that goes into enabling that species to acquire and utilise the resources, the drive, as well as the know-how, to travel into space. And it would also require a person or persons capable of interpreting the cosmos.
Interestingly, fifty years ago, people would have had difficulty comprehending my work, so in addition to other interesting coincidences, my life seems to have occurred at a timely juncture. As well, I can also state that the ability to do my work relies upon having an impaired mecp2 gene and the subsequent consequences thereof.
Finally, Neanderthal was not driven to do the above. We are. Such a leap can only have been intentional.
