The world of manufacturing is undergoing rapid changes, and the number of highly skilled people who are needed to design, program, test, install, and service the robots and the manufacturing systems does not come close to the number of people who have lost their jobs to these technologies.
Instead, planets and moons are separated from Earth by unfathomable distances - often too remote, dim, and cold for any spacecraft to explore on solar power. The good news is that we have plutonium-238: a radioisotope whose heat can be converted into electricity.
