The choice seems easy to me: languish as a mid-level nobody on a dying planet or go be a pioneer and make something unprecedented. I’d have to go.

It’s definitely not for everyone. Kind of like the explorers of history, we would have to assume it was a one-way trip and say goodbye to our loved ones. I also assume there would be some rudimentary way to communicate, even if there was a delay.
My few loved ones would understand. But it would be really tough.
