| Oct 29, 2021 at 4:05 | comment | added | techsystem2000 | I can imagine several excuses why a high tech species does not have space travel. Bu t my favorite is one of the Isaac Asimov's very first published tales: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightfall_(Asimov_novelette_and_novel). Any way, space travel the way we see in Science Fiction can never be achieved. | |

| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:56 | comment | added | Goodies | How much more advanced does it get ? You are joking ? I hope to live my fist holiday travel to Ganymedes.. 547 days in 20thc technology, 43 minutes at light speed, 2150 minutes would be acceptable for tourism (0.02c) to Jupiter. Now imagine a competition in space tourism, a spurt, like electronics.. Ion engines turn out to work with fuel XYZ.. etcetera. There is plenty of room for development. | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:41 | comment | added | MolbOrg | @Goodies look around - we already do not fly in space, lol. We have stuff in orbit and are relatively advanced, and we have the potential to be it that way for the next 50 years, how much more advanced we will be - I mean it enough to look for reasons in this reality to have some reasons and causes. Sure there are more options, and some are better than others, meaning more realistic. So asking isn't exactly pointless, but yeah it(the q) was 50/50 from the beginning | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:35 | comment | added | Goodies | I like topics with interesting titles, this is one.. and I think it is worldbuilding. Suppose we would not fly.. why would that be ? intriguing question. | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:33 | comment | added | MolbOrg | @Goodies "I corrected that by using singular form for "constraint" - too late - let's embrace the broadness and drink that cup until the end, downvote bad answers | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:33 | comment | added | Goodies | There could be a single cause. A SINGLE constraint, because it is really THE GRAVE constraint that keeps humanity on the planet. See first and second answer below, in fact a single cause covers all answers above 1 vote. | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:09 | comment | added | sphennings | @Goodies Unless you invalidated the 23 existent answers how did you modify the question to no longer be too broad? | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:07 | comment | added | Goodies | Thanks @sphennings, I corrected that by using singular form for "constraint" (there are so many answers to take into account) | |

Finished editing the answer. Put an explanatory comment, use singular for "constraint" to focus more.

| Oct 28, 2021 at 19:05 | comment | added | sphennings | @Goodies From the help center: if a question has many valid answers, then it's probably too broad for our format. | |
| Oct 28, 2021 at 18:56 | comment | added | Goodies | [review] I've voted for reopen (first time peer mod action ! wow !) and attempted to focus adding a question. This has 23 answers, so I assumed we've all read the remark/excuse for English language. Less relevant now.. thanks @Eddy96.. hope you like my edit, if not, you can restore your text. Please add some more details if you have them. | |
