This article is not copying for me, but I have heard about this before.
What if it's simply things flying in front of the radio telescope?
What say FReepers?

What could “they” be? How about, what could IT be? Something that puts out enough energy in a split second to power the world for centuries. Rather than speculate that vast intelligences, which we do not know exist, are chatting with one another, or trying to chat with us, how about we stick with things that we do know exist and which can generate that much energy... supernovae, colliding neutron stars, etc.? I betcha that’s where the smart money is.
No I’m not! You made that up.
I remember seeing that movie in the drive-in in San Diego. Wasn’t bad.
I liked it a lot. The 2nd one was horrible. Just awful.
The first one was awesome. A bunch of liberal Global Warming propaganda but it was fun.
Astrophysics. I have never heard ANY astrophysicist say conclusively and unequivocally that we humans here on Earth are the only form of life in the universe. If this universe, with more galaxies in it then there are grains of sand on a beach and to think that if you were to scoop up a handful of that sand and see only one blue and white grain of sand, then you and anyone else is a moron.
Most Patrick Muldoon sci-fi movies I try to avoid, except Starship Troopers.
Stear clear of Ice Spiders. Terrible movie.
Reminds me of a scene from Sirens Of Titan. A spaceship was lost in the subsurface labyrinth caves of Mercury. Couldn’t make its way back to the surface. Then the pilot saw written on one of the walls:
It’s an IQ test.
Was wrong. Figured I’d see the alien guy before the 25th post?
This is the last I will reply to a fool.
Get your pacifier and suck away.
Thanks for conceding the argument.
Anyone who could truly think we are all alone in this vast and infinite universe and that the conditions that made life possible here wouldn’t be possible any where is a blithering idiot and on par with those who once thought the Earth was the center of the universe and that if one were to sail to the horizon they’d fall off.
Now why do plants pump out oxygen? It requires quite a bit of energy to bust up the water molecule to liberate oxygen yet after doing so the plant just throws this juicy bit of chemical energy away. Normally nature tries to minimize energy usage but in this case it was so wasteful nature succeeded in saturating an entire planet with the stuff! It must have required some extreme bit of luck to lock plants into such a wasteful expenditure of energy.
Oxygen reactions are so energetic they not only make fire possible it gives animals enough energy to move around. It’s this ability to move around and explore things that makes intelligent life a possibility. Plants are not known for their intelligence.
So far over 4000 exoplanets have been discovered . On one confirmed planet that had elemental oxygen , it was on a world so hot and close to its star the abundance of high energy was busting up molecules with oxygen.
I suspect it’s going to take looking at a lot more world’s before we ever find one with oxygen on it like Earth has.Perhaps mankind will someday find a world with elemental fluorine in its atmosphere, but I’m pretty sure I’m not going to be around to see that either.
Nitrogen and methane can support life. Honestly no one can prove there is life on other worlds nor can they prove there isn’t. But consider this, to think that the same conditions that made life possible here couldn’t exist under the same or similar circumstances is foolish. Any serious student of astrophysics and science would be laughed out of any laboratory or observatory.
CQ CQ CQ De extra galactic station AB5XC CQ CQ CQ.

Probably just an extraterrestrial amateur radio looking for some contacts! ;)
Obviously our conditions can exist because, well , here we are! I’m just saying it’s going to be very rare elsewhere.
Yep, he’s pretty bad
How can you make that assertion, that life existing somewhere else is ‘’very rare elsewhere’’? How in the hell can you say that?
