Renowned scientist Jane Goodall Shared Desire to Transport Trump and Musk on Single-Journey Space Mission

After dedicating years researching chimpanzee behavior, Jane Goodall became an authority on the combative nature of dominant males. In a recently released interview filmed shortly before her demise, the renowned primatologist shared her unconventional solution for dealing with specific people she viewed as displaying similar traits: transporting them on a non-return journey into the cosmos.

Posthumous Film Reveals Frank Opinions

This remarkable insight into Goodall's mindset emerges from the Netflix documentary "Final Words", which was filmed in March and preserved confidential until after her recently announced passing at the age of 91.

"I've encountered individuals I don't like, and I would like to place them on one of Musk's spaceships and launch them to the celestial body he's certain he'll locate," stated Goodall during her conversation with her interlocutor.

Particular Personalities Targeted

When asked whether the tech billionaire, recognized for his questionable behavior and connections, would be among them, Goodall replied positively.

"Certainly, without doubt. He'd be the organizer. Picture whom I would include on that vessel. Along with Musk would be Donald Trump and several of Trump's real supporters," she stated.

"And then I would put Russia's leader among them, and I would put Xi Jinping. I would definitely include Israel's prime minister among the passengers and his political allies. Put them all on that spaceship and launch them."

Earlier Comments

This was not the initial instance that Goodall, an advocate of conservation efforts, had expressed criticism about the former president in particular.

In a previous discussion, she had remarked that he showed "similar type of behavior as a male chimpanzee exhibits when battling for leadership with an opponent. They're upright, they strut, they present themselves as really more large and aggressive than they may actually be in order to frighten their competitors."

Alpha Behavior

During her final interview, Goodall expanded upon her understanding of alpha personalities.

"We observe, interestingly, two kinds of alpha. The first achieves dominance all by aggression, and due to their strength and they battle, they don't last for extended periods. Others do it by employing intelligence, like a younger individual will only challenge a more dominant one if his friend, frequently a sibling, is with him. And you know, they endure significantly longer," she detailed.

Group Dynamics

The renowned scientist also studied the "politicization" of conduct, and what her detailed observations had revealed to her about hostile actions exhibited by groups of humans and primates when encountering something they viewed as threatening, despite the fact that no threat really was present.

"Chimpanzees observe an unfamiliar individual from a nearby tribe, and they grow highly agitated, and the hair stands out, and they extend and contact each other, and they show expressions of hostility and apprehension, and it catches, and the others absorb that sentiment that one member has had, and the entire group grows aggressive," she explained.

"It's contagious," she added. "Certain displays that become hostile, it spreads among them. Everyone desires to participate and engage and become aggressive. They're guarding their territory or battling for control."

Comparable Human Reactions

When asked if she considered comparable dynamics applied to human beings, Goodall replied: "Probably, on occasion. But I strongly feel that the bulk of humanity are decent."

"My primary aspiration is nurturing the upcoming generation of caring individuals, foundations and growth. But are we allowing enough time? It's unclear. These are difficult times."

Historical Context

Goodall, a London native prior to the commencement of the World War II, equated the struggle against the darkness of contemporary politics to England opposing Nazi Germany, and the "unyielding attitude" displayed by the prime minister.

"However, this isn't to say you avoid having periods of sadness, but subsequently you recover and say, 'Alright, I'm not going to let them win'," she commented.

"It resembles the leader in the war, his famous speech, we shall combat them on the beaches, we shall battle them through the avenues and the cities, then he turned aside to a friend and allegedly commented, 'and we shall combat them with the remnants of shattered glass because that's all we've bloody well got'."

Closing Thoughts

In her last message, Goodall shared inspiring thoughts for those combating authoritarian control and the ecological disaster.

"At present, when the planet is challenging, there still is hope. Don't lose hope. If you lose hope, you grow unresponsive and take no action," she advised.

"And if you want to preserve the remaining beauty across the globe – should you desire to protect our world for coming generations, your descendants, their offspring – then consider the choices you make each day. As, replicated numerous, innumerable instances, modest choices will generate great change."
