Red Dwarfs are the longest lived and stablest of stars but they emit so little energy that for a planet to be habitable it has to be very close and thus tidally locked. Can life live on a tidally locked planet indefinitely?

Wouldn't all the water eventually freeze on the night-side? Once it freezes there there is nothing that will unfreeze it. Without a hydrosphere life would be impossible.

fully bio humans will never reach other star systems. It will be the trans-humans and artifical people that will explore the universe. Unless that is they decided to reborn bio humans on other worlds.

It would be interesting if their advanced civilization broke down and all that was left were bio/natural humans basically farming like primitive peoples. After joint memory of the history of how humans got there, they would really go wtf and wonder how the fuck they got there. Kind of like Trigun.
