re: Why so much emphasis on space when 95% of our oceans remain unexplored?

If it gets so bad that we have to leave for survival (thinking cataclysmic solar event), wouldn't it just be futile in itself? We would have to go virtually blindly into space because by the time we learned enough about a new planet (having visited it, conducted tests) there's no way it could even make it by the time the Sun is going to expire anyway.
Maybe I'm just being too nihilistic but I just don't see any effort being worthwhile.
