Should we, seek out new life, and new civilizations,
should we, boldly go, where no one
has gone
before?

Yes, space is the largest frontier, and the most virginal. But, I doubt it will be the last. There are internal frontiers that we boldly delve into here everyday, my fellow spaceman. And hopefully we will live long and prosper.

Space as known is the final frontier.
I know people who fully anticipate human colonization of other planets...and hope it happens in their lifetime.
NASA actively seeks out new life, etc. I support that.
When I was watching Star Trek V (i think it was) and Captain Kirk had to decide if he was going to travel to God, I was concerned about whether he ought to. Then, I recalled the plaque on his ship: "...boldly go where no man has gone before". That was his excuse. It's great justification for a movie, but in real life if you're driving somebody else's ship-or dragging others along with you; then you better have permission.

It is the final frontier. But too big for humans to travel any great distances, like other civilised planets. Space is so big, that even at the speed of light it could take thousands of years to reach anywhere of significance. Maybe humans have already sent people out to space a thousand years ago, but we wont find out until they get back to earth in another 1000 years.

Space isn't the final frontier presently. Our minds are!
I agree that we should take care of our planet first, then use our brains to solve the medical challenges we face (we almost have those medical compact tools!) and finally we could look out for new civilizations once we found eco-friendly ways to travel in outer-space!

It's like this... a civilization can't go into space until it evolves enough. When human mammals stop behaving like common animals, that's when they're ready to go into space to meet others who have also evolved. Following are some indications that a civilization is about ready...
-- there are no governments (no need for them)
-- no states or political borders
-- no nationalism
-- no flags (waving a printed cloth on a pole like an idiot)
-- no fuel consumption (no need to drive anywhere, you hover, sort of like magic)
-- no roads (because there's no cars)
-- no police (no crime so no need)
-- no cities (complete decentralization)
-- no eating other animals
-- no wars
-- no religion (only spirituality)
There's much more but it's late and I must go to bed (first great sex in unheard of positions and then beauty sleep)
Anyway, you get the picture, and once the intellectual mammals (aka humans) begin to behave properly they will go into space for sure (time-space too).

No, underwater is the final frontier. Space is just a much larger frontier. And we need to explore both.

I'm reading a book at the moment. It is called "Space: The free-market frontier". Two of the words match!!

I think the next life is the final frontier (not "Heaven," btw).
We should attempt to learn all we possibly can about the world we live in. That includes outside this planet.

No, the explorations of the power of our own minds will be the final frontier.

Quantum physics suggest there might be new and exciting frontiers waiting to be discovered.
