      Most of the solid bodies in the solar system are literally a bunch of airless, irradiated, toxic rocks, with either no life at all or potentially some rare bacteria-like stuff hidden somewhere we haven’t been able to conclusively examine yet. They already are in a more “fucked up” state than even the most polluted wasteland we’ve created on earth. What could we possibly do to them to mess them up further?

        Its current “fucked up” state is also its natural state, relatively uninfluenced by humans for the entirety of existence.

        I don’t doubt our ability to act brashly and fuck something up to the point of impacting life back here on Earth or screw things up for others out there in the cosmos.
