The human arrogance has no bounds. They think they're bigger than the universe, but as you mentioned, those 'scientist' idiots are only living in a fantasy. Going to Mars? Terraforming other worlds? Get real. They'll be shattered by extreme weather, radiations, no water and no air, before they have time to recycle their poop into plants.
