You bet? Think what would happen if astrophysicists find out that 
the Sun is going to blow in a hundred or so years...

Generally, a civilization that is confined to one planed is doomed, 
sooner or later. That which settles all the planetary system is doomed 
too, though in a much larger time frame. But such one will be rather
used to plan in longer time frames too...
