> if there is a hope that humanity will become grabby aliens (Star Trek).
You talk as if being a loud grabby alien to other space civilizations is a hopeful thing for humanity to aspire to. Did not Star Trek had a Prime Directive for some reason? Though I do like solving the Fermi Paradox by humanity taking a good hard look in the mirror. May disprove us being Big Foot Medusas with one stone too.
Humanity just got rid of a nasty period of colonizing space on earth. I would not let us near intergalactic space without a time-out period.
