If that is what space is to you, then go away.
You don't have to leave a planet to see space, or its implications. Besides, planets are in space, and if you're on a planet, I think you're still in space on a rather large "spaceship". I'm not even sure if death ensures that you leave space.

Captain Biko, my inclination to involve myself in this kind of argument for argument's sake is zero. Not on this topic, not now.

I don't think that's true, nor do I think that's what Aria was trying to say.

Is this is the end state for all of us...

I do not know.

I know that this is where my path led me, at the end: into uncaring emptiness.


Aria documented her path from uplifted baseliner through posthumanism no matter where it led her, and she did so in a way that was both profoundly insightful and touchingly human. Hers may not be the path we all tread, but it is the path that some of us will follow.
