Leaving Earth is not just physically astonishing but can also carry a deep sense of terror as it is a goodbye to one's past life and loved ones.
Social psychologists have conducted experiments to measure the hidden influence of recognizing our own mortality, termed Terror Management Theories, with remarkable results proving that individuals subtly reminded of their own mortality displayed distinct behavior.
A fear of mortality and scarcity of time and resources are essential for robots to understand in order to mirror human society accurately. Even with advanced engineering, robots will eventually disintegrate, just as all things will due to the second law of thermodynamics and the concept of entropy.
