Soundtrack: melodysheep.bandcamp.com/album/the-human-future-or… Patreon: patreon.com/melodysheep Change is coming. Humanity is entering a turbulent new era, unprecedented in both Earth and Human history. To survive the coming centuries and fulfill our potential as a species, we will have to overcome the biggest challenges we have ever faced, from extreme climate change, to rogue A.I., to the inevitable death of the sun itself.

The headlines make our chances look bleak. But when you look at our history and our tenacity, it's clear that humanity is uniquely empowered to rise to the challenges we face.

If we succeed, our potential is cosmic in scale. Incredible prosperity is within our reach. Being optimistic is not only justified, it's a powerful weapon in the fight for a higher future.

honestly, when I began this project, I was preparing to make a doomer-style "final warning" video for humanity. but over the last two years of research and editing, my mindset has flipped. it will take a truly apocalyptic event to stop us, and we are more than capable of avoiding those scenarios and eventually reaching transcendent futures. pessimism is everywhere, and to some degree it is understandable. but the case for being optimistic is strong... and being optimistic puts us on the right footing for the upcoming centuries. what say the people??

The only reason I would want to live forever is to see how far humans go and what our real purpose of existing is.

It’s so good to see a positive outlook instead of all the negativity we are fed and experience throughout the globe especially the last couple of years with so many squalid things that surround us,epidemics,wars,poverty,starvation, social and political turmoil,injustice and negative vibes.. The most significant element that can save us is LOVE!!We as species must realise that without love,compassion and empathy we are all doomed!!If we understand that we are all connected as a universal soul without any borders then we can thrive,imho!!May all mankind find the light within which is the divine love and then glowing hearts and souls will unite in harmony and peace..into a glorious future ahead!!!

How you don't have your own 2 hour long Netflix documentary on the future of human kind and space, is beyond me. Absolutely love the quality of your work. You're setting the bar extremely high.

John, your work is beyond influential. You probably will never know just how many people you've inspired to go into the sciences, research, engineering, etc with a newfound drive and motivation just from the visuals you show us and stories you tell us. For the sake of humanity, I hope you make more content, and continue to do so and inspire hundreds of thousands of people. Without really knowing it, you might very well be a significant entity in propelling our species forward.

"No future is guaranteed, Even the most optimistic futures will bring deep injustices and suffering. But to despair for our future is to ignore our history and our exceptionalism. Our resiliency will protect us; our intelligence will propel us. Optimism is not only justified, it is a weapon in the fight for a higher future." This is an absolutely beautiful quote..

I've spent the last few months feeling very negative about humankinds future, not knowing where we are going to go, not knowing what the future holds, everywhere I look is negative. This has helped me a lot. Thank you so much.

"Resiliency will protect us, Intelligence will propel us " This line speaks volumes about humanity. It speaks of something capable of greatness.

I think all the optimism I just gained will fade away when I get back to work and see other people, but thanks anyway, great job as always.

You have absolutely outdone yourself in this documentary. Amongst a sea of doomsaying and hopelessness for our future from so much media these days, to be able to watch something with a realistic, and powerful view of optimism, is truly a gift. I actually shed a tear at the end every time I watch this. Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Here's to the next million years!!

Melodysheep videos are no joke; they aren’t your typical watch while you eat type of video no, they transcend that. To truly enjoy a Melodysheep video you must have adequate lighting and comfort, you must prepare like you are witnessing the grandest opera of humanity, that’s because you are

You and your videos are the reason I became interested in space and science in general in the first place. You truly changed my view on the universe and made me really think about how humanity's future will look like and how I can shape it in a positive way. Thank you.
