<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

For me, I'd definitely have to say it's space travel. Ever since I was a very small child I've always been fascinated with the stars and all things related to them in the cosmos and on Earth, so obviously I became a complete sci-fi geek.

As much as I love all the other shows like Stargate, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica (FRAK YEAH!), Star Wars and so on, I think I'd have to say that my favourite, and most wished for future of the human race is that of the Star Trek universe.

A federation of many planets, and many species exploring the cosmos together, working together for the greater good - it just doesn't get any better than that to me. At the very least we'd have humans overcoming obvious technological, social and political goals to explore the cosmos together in harmony.

Yet, now that I'm beginning to properly grow up (I'm 19, oh can you feel the angst?) I feel like that dream, that goal, couldn't be any further away. I know it's a VERY optimistic dream to begin with, but it makes me very sad knowing I'll never see this, and realising that we may just kill ourselves long before we even have the chance to try.

We are stardust. It's time for us to return to our stellar nursery to be born again.
<bot>: So reddit, what is the thing that you are most aggrivated about probably not seeing in your lifetime? Mine is space exploration, and the human colonisation of the cosmos.
