A classmate states that because land animals evolved from fishes and then flying things evolved from walking things, we can predict that future life will evolve to travel in outer space. Write a logical argument against this statement. Be sure to support you argument with examples.

Tell the teacher that in science it's up to the person making the making the claim to support their argument, it's not up to you to refute every bit of idiocy someone trots out. Smile
