Few if any of us will be alive. As far as we know, apart from Mars most planets are too cold or hot and lack resources for humans.
There might be some colonies on the Moon or Mars just to mine minerals this century but only very few people will be involved. I cannot predict next centuries. Maybe when travel outside of the solar system will be possible.
I believe that the first viable, permanent human colony on Mars will be established within our life times. After that I think it will take many more decades, if not centuries, to establish colonies in the moons of the outer planets.
I doubt it will happen at all. Looking at the current situation humanity probably will have extincted themselves within the next hundred years.
Obviously by the time space exploration advances we will already be in the grave, hopefully if it happens soon the most we will see is the arrival of the first humans on Mars and perhaps some important advances in aerospace engineering but until then nothing more. The future. In the era of our great-great-grandchildren, they will already live in an era in which space travel is the norm.
By the way, the planets where humanity can settle are not easy to find but not impossible either, telescopes have already mapped up to 9 planets similar to Earth with resources so that humans can live, the only problem is the distance, they are all in systems where it would take us light years to reach, until we invent something that allows us to travel at that speed we will not even be able to think about exploring those planets, but there are several candidates for habitable planets that exist.
According to an analyst, we are in a time of crisis where survival will be an important factor during this and the next century. If we do not become extinct by the 23rd century, we will already be a type 1 civilization on the Kardasho scale and there probably the space advance would have evolved. a lot.
Mars 2039
You can't colonize dancing luminaries.
Our Earth is the only physical realm. It's not flat but it's also not a spinning ball in outer space with curved water either. The moon and sun are much closer than what we were told.
It dosn't matter however it's shaped. It could even be shaped like a fuckin potato, it dosn't change anything. Everything in the cosmos or these luminaries come back to the human body and the mind of man.
Never. Once Europe and the anglosphere have been overpopulated by browners, the world will revert to the middle ages: we'll be lucky if someone still knows how to read in the next 50 years.
I think inventing teleportation portals is more impossible than inventing a method for space travel within the galaxy.
Practically because to do teleportation you have to manipulate the genetic composition and that is something that we are not even in its infancy.
India became the 4th country to fake a moon landing.
Word on the street is that Croatia was also on the moon but nobody cares, Trust me bro.

I doubt that it will ever happen
India doesn't have a space program, it's less than an Hollywood movie's budget, they just try to parade as a space power copy pasting old designs for cheap, like a hundreds of other nations have the capability to but don't because it's pointless. China is a bit more serious about it but it's still some attempt at soft power, they have nothing disruptive either, recycling nasa tech decades behind the curve (while claiming they are being copied, which is hilarious)
Mars settlements will certainly begin before the end of the century, it has to be terraformed in some way to make it livable for larger scales migrations, in order to not live like worms underground or with spacesuits on at all time. The temperature is not even the main issue, it's the lack of magnetic field, we either need to create an artificial one under domes or restart it's inner core somehow so it shields any living thing from deadly radiations at the surface.
Second best candidate is Titan, actually more habitable than Mars but much further away, we would need some leapfrog in state of the art propulsion first, something like 1/100 of the speed of light to make it a bearable journey for humans, and at least 1/10 to get out of the solar system. Voyager is gone for 50 years and barely in the heliosphere right now traveling at only about 1/1000 the speed of light, yet it's a tiny probe and not a spaceship. Distances are always gonna be the first limitation, until we find a way to bend the fabric of spacetime in some way and understand how gravity really actually works, which is the key to crack it all.
Either way the dystopian scenari of Elysian is more likely to happen first than colonizing planets per say on large scale, due to private sectors rather than nations, when the riches will get sick of living amongst +10 billions subhumans on a 3rd world trashbin earth.
It will never happen. Space colonization is gnostic nonsense.
Did you say they launched a probe outside the solar system to serve as an explorer? What is that probe called?
In fact, the key will be when an engine or superpropeller or something like that is invented, an artifact like those seen in science fiction novels like Star Trek, something that allows a spaceship to travel light years and reduce time, another option is to send an ark ship, with a volunteer crew, to colonize a planet. The problem is that if the planet is outside the solar system, that ship would take thousands or even millions of (earth) years to arrive and avoid the possible catastrophes that could prevent you from reaching your destination.
Even what is seen in movies like Elysium, space technology has to advance a lot, to create something like a halo or space ring,
In any case, it is possible that companies and corporations little by little come to have more power than the governments themselves, and these are the ones who will direct space colonization. In fact, they are already starting with private companies like Space X, so in the future they can There are 2 options, the first is that there comes a point where all human governments are reunited into one called the government of the earth, and the second is that private companies rise and they are the ones who govern.
Several probes were already sent out since the 70's with sufficient escape velocity to reach interstellar space but none of them have passed the Oort cloud yet

The closest system, Proxima Centauri is still thousands of times more distant than what they travelled so far in 50 years. They are not heading there anyway and Voyager's plutonium battery will be depleted in a few years. It could still transmit some faint signals but we would need some 100km wide antena to capture it back on earth. Voyager is like a bottle in the sea at this point, yet one of these probes might reach another civilization one day. Even if it was in a million years, that would be the blink of an eye compared to the age of star systems around.
This is too complicated and expensive, and requires the pooling of almost all the planet's resources in one hand (while they are not yet exhausted). Therefore, such planetary tasks require a change in the goal setting of society - plan instead of market, cooperation instead of competition, an idea instead of personal profit, positivism instead of depression, plus inevitably a course towards smoothing out national and religious differences.
Otherwise, humanity has a chance to flush all its remaining resources down the toilet and finally degrade to the state of animals, and forget about space forever.
That is precisely why humanity needs to explore space, to search for resources, the earth's resources will one day run out and when that happens there will be a catastrophe, we will only be able to move forward if we explore the last frontier that we have left, In space there are many places to obtain resources, including another home.
Mars, the moon, and maybe Calixto, Ganymede and Titan in the next decades.
When they start colonizing exoplanets outside our solar system will more likely take centuries.
Electronics and some other fields of technology developed rapidly. OTOH space technology is still in the 60s or 70s. Following this pace we'll colonize moon in several centuries from now or never.
Nothing is gonna happen until at least a few centuries. Very small number of humans have traveled 1 lightsecond from this planet and stayed there a few days. Mars is 12 lightminutes away and the radiation during travel and stay there is too much for humans.
A base on the moon would be a major achievement.
