Flying people

[yesthattom]

Scientist and author Freeman Dyson predicts that millions of years from now humans could evolve to live in space without requiring breathing apparatus. If you think this is crazy, imagine a prehistoric fish trying to imagine that someday beings will live above the water.

I don't know about all that, but watching this video makes me wonder if we're about to jump that next evolutionary step where we start to fly. We do that for a few million years and soon we are good at living full-time in places with little air. A few million years later, no air. A few million years later, in space.
