    Scientists may finally know where the biggest, oldest black holes in the universe came from.

    A small colony of 10 to 15 people on Mars or the Moon will not perpetuate the human species for even a 100 years without vast resources from a robust human population on Earth!! Even if all goes well, the Earth will be a cinder in 1 billion years because the Sun is heating up by 6% per billion...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Absolutely for all we know aliens do live even within our solar system, perhaps even among us. That would not necessarily mean that they are hiding from us and or avoiding us. The answer could be as simple as that their life forms are so different from ours. That their physical beings are...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Both questions to the answer remain unanswered because proof one way or the other is not definitively available.

    At toast to the cosmos

    Who ever said the gods don’t enjoy a drink every once in a while. Of course if they’re spilling it. It may jus mean they’ve over indulged.

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Did somebody say chemistry? So that instead of the red liquid that circulates in our arteries and veins, we may indeed find that some extraterrestrial life out there has a corrosive alkalis neutralizer pumping through its circulatory system.

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Microbiological life on the outskirts of our solar system. Ok not exactly intelligent life but hey still a good reason to get out there and see what else is there. Life is great: intentional or not I just love it when things appear to go my way. I know, I know, this in no way proves there are...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Word usage – Spontaneous >> adjective or noun<<-that can change the definition of the word ... (slightly?) Then there’s norm in use – what is the normal use of the word >>in the environment it is used in.<< Then there’s etymology the word’s origin, – our taught/learned historical account of...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    I agree with you here - Spontaneous: Developing or occurring without apparent external influence, force, cause, or treatment. Which as I said I don't believe is truly possible hypothetical equations aside. Herein is where our minds fail to meet. I do not argue that I'm right and you're wrong. I...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Dark Forrest Hypothosis—yeah, it's interesting and like so many others it can’t just be discounted. We do know that there is a factorable(?) reality which is innate and therefore unavoidable, e.g. by-products created by all life forms. With that in mind and remembering that we are speaking...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    While I’m all for spontaneity …I have a hard time with spontaneous. In my view the first one can happen due to the moment’s event(?) While the second indicates/suggest things just happen. From my point of view nothing just happens. At one point or another there is a cause or series of causes...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    While I truly hope you are correct that time travel will never be possible. I am not sure I can agree with your causality premise. That presumes that no actions whatsoever would be required of the time traveler(?) for events to unravel. Causality being a result i.e. cause and effect then I would...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    True today, true tomorrow, likely true in our life time. True forever? ...I wouldn’t go that far … as the song says, Que Sera, Sera… The future’s not ours to see.

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    I see no pros or cons in discussions which in the end shed light on a given subject. I am agreed with your assessment that realization is calming; to which I add that realization is only possible through understanding. Which itself becomes possible when the majority of the, for the most part...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    While it’s not something you have stated, per say, in your enjoiner here. I do believe it ties in with the rejoinder from Classical motion’s # 5 to my # 4 which attracted Atlan0011’s # 6 to classical’s # 5. Bearing in mind that what you say as to signal strength of AM/AF over vast distances...

    Question Why We Haven’t Met Any Aliens Yet?

    Maybe I’m just easily entertained. But then again it seems to me that there’s more out there to support my enthusiasm when it comes to space exploration. So much so that I can’t help but reach the conclusion that I might not be wrong in my presumption that there’s more out there we haven’t...
