Anti-Matter

Robert Feynman said that anti-matter is just like regular matter but with the arrow of time reversed.  The 'spooky action at a distance', the Schrödinger's cat paradox is an aspect of this, where an observation in the future will make the cat alive or dead in the past.  It makes me wonder if that is the cause of the current state of the world, the future of it.  It was easy to envision even 20 years ago a world uniting around reason and logic, Sagan's proposition that a spacefaring civilization would by necessity be one at peace with itself, as the tremendous expediture of resources to transition to a spacefaring civilization would require the we give up on our current most tremendous expenditure of resources - war.
That clearly is not happening.  The war machine keeps turning, people become more and more distrustful of science, people are retreating into tribalism.  Perhaps the the world will end, that scientific and rational future, for whatever reason, just can't be, and this sad fact of the our future is echoing backwards in time to our present.
The answer to why we never went back to the Moon is simple - there's nothing there.  It's just blasted space dust.  It is doubtful humans could survive the trip to Mars, even if they could, life on the surface would be far more perilous difficult  than life in the Sahara or Antarctica here on Earth.  Perhaps this is all there is, this planet, this life, passing time until the Sun supernovas.  Maybe human's collective subconscious knows this and is reacting violently to this inevitablity.  Maybe the best thing to do is recycle, descend back into barbarism so humans can forget this truth once more and then be reborn with hope.
