Renowned scientist Jane Goodall Expressed Aspiration to Send Elon Musk and Donald Trump on One-Way Trip to Space

After spending decades researching chimpanzee behavior, Jane Goodall became a specialist on the combative nature of alpha males. In a newly published interview documented shortly before her passing, the famous primatologist revealed her unconventional solution for dealing with particular figures she viewed as showing similar qualities: sending them on a permanent journey into the cosmos.

Legacy Interview Reveals Frank Opinions

This extraordinary insight into Goodall's philosophy emerges from the Netflix production "Last Statements", which was filmed in March and kept confidential until after her latest passing at 91 years old.

"I've encountered individuals I'm not fond of, and I wish to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and send them all off to the celestial body he's convinced he'll locate," commented Goodall during her discussion with Brad Falchuk.

Named Figures Identified

When inquired whether the tech billionaire, recognized for his controversial gestures and political alliances, would be part of this group, Goodall answered affirmatively.

"Certainly, without doubt. He would be the host. You can imagine who I'd put on that spaceship. Along with Musk would be Donald Trump and various Trump's dedicated followers," she announced.

"Furthermore I would include Russia's leader on board, and I would place China's leader. Without question I would add the Israeli leader in there and his political allies. Place them all on that spaceship and launch them."

Previous Criticism

This wasn't the initial instance that Goodall, a champion of environmental causes, had expressed criticism about the political figure especially.

In a earlier conversation, she had noted that he exhibited "the same sort of behavior as an alpha chimp exhibits when vying for dominance with another. They stand tall, they swagger, they portray themselves as much larger and aggressive than they may actually be in order to daunt their rivals."

Dominance Patterns

During her last recorded conversation, Goodall further explained her understanding of dominant individuals.

"We get, interestingly, two categories of leader. One does it through pure aggression, and due to their strength and they battle, they don't remain indefinitely. Others do it by using their brains, like a young male will only challenge a superior one if his companion, typically a relative, is with him. And research shows, they last much, much longer," she detailed.

Collective Behavior

The celebrated primatologist also studied the "social dimension" of conduct, and what her detailed observations had revealed to her about combative conduct shown by groups of humans and chimpanzees when confronted with something they perceived as hostile, although no threat truly existed.

"Chimpanzees encounter an unfamiliar individual from an adjacent group, and they grow highly agitated, and their fur bristles, and they extend and touch another, and they display expressions of rage and terror, and it transmits, and the others catch that feeling that this one male has had, and everyone turns combative," she explained.

"It transmits easily," she noted. "Some of these demonstrations that become hostile, it spreads among them. Each member wishes to get involved and turn violent. They're guarding their area or competing for dominance."

Comparable Human Reactions

When inquired if she thought comparable dynamics applied to human beings, Goodall replied: "Probably, in certain situations. But I firmly think that the bulk of humanity are ethical."

"My primary aspiration is raising future generations of empathetic people, roots and shoots. But do we have time? It's unclear. These are difficult times."

Historical Perspective

Goodall, originally from London prior to the beginning of the Second World War, likened the fight against the difficulties of contemporary politics to the UK resisting Nazi Germany, and the "determined resistance" shown by the British leader.

"This doesn't imply you avoid having moments of depression, but subsequently you recover and say, 'Well, I'm not going to permit their victory'," she commented.

"It resembles the leader throughout the battle, his renowned address, we'll fight them at the coastlines, we'll fight them along the roads and urban areas, subsequently he remarked to a companion and reportedly stated, 'and we'll fight them at the ends of damaged containers as that's the only thing we've bloody well got'."

Parting Words

In her concluding remarks, Goodall provided words of encouragement for those resisting authoritarian control and the ecological disaster.

"At present, when the world is dark, there still is hope. Preserve faith. If you lose hope, you turn into unresponsive and take no action," she counseled.

"Whenever you want to protect what is still beautiful in this world – should you desire to protect our world for coming generations, your grandchildren, their offspring – then think about the actions you implement every day. Because, multiplied numerous, a billion times, minor decisions will generate substantial improvement."
