Breeding modern humans

What if some people were put in the sea from birth, and had children in the sea, for several generations. This kind of sea-based evolutionary kickstarter, would presumably lead to a more advanced, semi-aquatic version of the human. Liquid-dwelling humans would be suitable for space flight, and, also, conquering the oceans.

Aquatic humans suitable for spaceflight? What the fuck makes you think that? Do you know how much two cubic meters of water weighs? 2000kg. 2 fucking tons. Two cubic meters of air weighs roughly 2.5kg.

New horizons is moving at about 15.75 km/sec. Let's get the kinetic energy of TWO TONS YOU IDIOT at that speed:

0.5 * 2000 * (1.575 * 10^3)^2 = um uh I think 1.575 * 10^9 J. A billion and a half Joules of energy. Slightly less than a thousand times the energy needed to accelerate the same volume of air. And that's a couple of coffins' worth. Fill a ship. And then tack on the fuel needed to accelerate the fuel needed to accelerate the vessel ad nauseam. IT ADDS UP EINSTEIN PLEASE THINK THIS SHIT THROUGH BEFORE SHITPOSITNG
