You know why there has never been a absolutely certain meeting with an alien or beyond denial physical evidence of an alien spacecraft? Its because given the laws of physics and the unfathomable enormous distances to even the nearest star, no alien biological or mechanical entity could ever reach earth. sorry , there is another explanation for the phenomena.

Not to mention the incredibly high cost of fuel- imagine how much it would cost to skip across the galaxy?

“Its because given the laws of physics”

As we know them. That doesn’t mean they are absolutely accurate. They are “laws” only because we haven’t witnessed phenomena that are not explained by them. Also, whose to say that matter and energy act the same everywhere in the universe?

Based on what we know now. After only a few hundred years of inventing machines that are still very basic.

Time and space are likely easily manipulated with the right technology. Technology that overcomes classical physics unlike we’ve invented so far.

Just over 100 years ago most people said a flying machine was impossible. Then they said space flight was impossible. Then a few decades later man walked on the moon.

Imagine an Alien race with millions of years of exponential innovation. We simply cannot comprehend such a thing

“Its because given the laws of physics”

The basis of the laws as we know them are descended for the 18th century mathematician James Clerk Maxwell, who proposed 200 field equations which were completely misunderstood at the time.

An other man (Oliver Heaviside), uneducated but self-taught, who lived in his mom’s basement, declared all 200 abominations. He threw out all but 4 which he transformed into vector equations - from those four came out entire knowledge of the electromagnetic spectrum and all that descends from that knowledge. All that Einstein and Tesla conceived came form those four twisted equations.

Had the full 200 been utilized as field equations, instead of dismissed or twisted, we would be living in an entirely different world today. The laws of physics are what our betters say they are, not necessarily what the laws actually are.

I try to explain exactly this when I speak to my kids about this stuff.

They don’t teach physics any longer.

Time and distance go together. And we are real far from anyplace worth going.
