We went to the moon so interplanetary travel (if the moon is considered another planet) is possible.
The next big step is is interstellar travel.
It will take generations to create, and then some, after that we will have to travel for generations to get to those other stellar systems.
It can be done, it will be done, and Isaac Asimov will rest easy to see what he perceived.
We, humans, will go to the stars, we will inhabit other planets, and we will be dominant in this solar system and beyond that. It will come down to time, cost, impetus and desire to go beyond our present reach, but it will be done. Unfortunately, not in my lifetime, but my children may, I hope, take my thoughts beyond this globe.
The universe is unending and as our thought collectively is, we can go beyond the gulf that presently separates us from the cosmos.
