I hope the writer doesn't fall into a humanhole because of a missing humanhole cover.
Well, we have tens of millions of “illegal” aliens here in the States to go along with tens of millions of space cadets also known as Democrats.
My pet theory is that the solution to the Fermi Paradox is that developing civilizations tend to go libtard overtime eventually destroying themselves.
The older I get, the less likely I find myself believing that life came into being beyond Earth, much less intelligent life. The factors involved in life coming about number in the millions: so many more minutae than we currently comprehend.
How do they know? Did they see any? What a joke....
I highly doubt that ET broadcasts on the radio band. They're probably using some kind of quantum entanglement transmission technology.
When our people finally discover the same technology, the waves are going to explode with communications from ET.
The 1301st star is the one to look out for.
1,327 stars is not a very broad base, especially considering that there are anywhere between 100 billion and a trillion stars in just our galaxy. It is also very likely that only one out of a few million stars even have planets capable of supporting life. Our sun is very stable compared to most. Most stars are small red dwarfs that tend to be violent flare stars, while most of the rest are binary stars, ones with short life spans, etc. And there must be a planet in precisely the proper orbit with all the proper conditions. And although life may be extremely rare in the universe, there are around 10^30 stars out there. A one out of a trillion chance of intelligent life per star will mean there are more intelligent civilizations than bacteria on earth.
They are looking in the wrong direction.
They must look intra-terrestrial!
"But I am not really willing to accept your premise, because it may well be that the means of communications they have are of a kind that we do not know how to receive, and that they would not have the means of communicating with sufficiently powerful radio or optical signals. That is something which, technologically, is too difficult for them but they would have some other means we would not recognize." -- Thomas J. Gold, 'Communication with Extraterrestial Intelligence' (Sagan, ed)
“The thing about aliens is they are alien.”
Who says and were is it written that aliens have to use the electromagnetic spectrum to communicate or if they do, that we would recognize their signals from background noise?
Besides, the absence of proof is not proof of absence. Just some rich guy’s hubris on display.
Please let me know when they show up. If it looks like a duck...walks like a duck...so far all results are bupkis class...if we cannot find any life out there....well maybe their aint none...
They’re all right here on Earth.
I wonder how many DNA tests come back 1/3 Space Alien. Heh.
Admit it. SETI is a giant fraud on the volunteers who make their computers available and a fraud on the sources of project funding.
The amount of power required to get a signal across the vast expanses of space that would still have enough power to be detectable on earth is enormous.
For solar systems beyond our nearest stars, multiple nuclear plants would be required to drive the power amplifier of such alien transmitters.
We just have to invent warp drive technology so the Vulcan come visit us! Yeah, I’m a geek.
I thought they were already flying around in our skies
No such thing as aliens. They make for nice stories and all, but they don’t exist.
The answer is in the Fine Structure Constant.
