Afraid to Dream (Monsterbus p16)

The star Antares is very big. The implications are explored in this story (high gravity, high temperatures, hence extreme weather, extreme everything). This is the sign of a great thinker: the ability to think through consequences and how it would really be.

Why does Antares matter to us? Because if we consider more human space travel we have to be realistic: what will happen and is it worth it? Also, note that advanced civilisations live underground.
