Survive as a species? What do you mean by that? All species will go extinct. Our species probably won't survive the next 100,000 years, but say we did? Say we terraformed Mars and other parts of the galaxy. Suppose our species outlasted the lifespan of our star. Say we survive in other parts of the universe by then, say our species lasted until all even the red dwarfs burned out and the universe was in darkness hundreds of billions of years from now, only to be ripped about by dark energy and finally face extinction? Is that the goal of our species?
