Members metalhobo Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 I wonder wat kind of mapz they have on other planets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members code_blue Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Would life on other planets really want to get to know us? If they show up it would lead to world war three, first the economic infrastructure would fall apart, then the social infrastucture, and eventually starvation would lead to war. Something like free energy would cost millions of people their jobs over night. And what if "they" knew this and kept the technology from us? We would end up going to war with them to get it on the basis that it would end suffering and poverty...but they know better, maybe they have seen this type of thing before a few times so they know to avoid contact.

Members Scarlet_Worm Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 shhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this information will scare the hell out of the religious people.. not at all:thu: sure, it raises some questions, but I don't think it would shake faith too much, except in people that have a brick wall type faith:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DirtyBird Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Well, there's a lot of evidence to suggest the universe is infinite. The only reason we can't see all of it is that it hasn't existed long enough for us to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ffemt596 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 Whether it is science or religious thought, I think it to be ridiculously arrogant for the human species to believe we the slightest clue as to the creation or expanse of the universe. 50-100 years from now what we think we know now will be looked at like a flat earth theory is looked at today. Our first step has probably not even been planted on the 1000 mile journey to truly know what's out there. I'm just here for a spin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fabeon Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 When you get into Physics you learn all about this kind of mind{censored} stuff.. It's widely believed that the ENTIRE universe came from a single atom that contained all 4 of the main forces in the universe combined into one 'superforce'. IIRC, that atom/molecule/whatever contained all of space-time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members HKSblade1 Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 It is said there are many galaxies as there are stars in our own Milky Way and when you think about that, one would have to be completely naive to say we are the only life form in the universe. Then we are not even sure if there are more dimensions within the world we live. There may be, we just have not been able to define them. Quantum Physics and Astrophysics are coming a long way to define some of the barriers. Mysterious as it is, I'm enlightened by both religion and science since they both explore the same unknowns and demonstrate how insignificant we all are.

Members Say Ocean Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 And can you really say that each star has on average one earthlike star when we've only found 300 planets and most of them are gas giants I hope we meet another species in my life time that'd be pretty chill. Hang out with another species. Or at least artificially breed monkeys to get smarter and be able to communicate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aussiejoe Posted February 16, 2009 Members Share Posted February 16, 2009 do a google search for dark matter/dark energy - truly astounding when you think that: "Only about 4% of the total energy density in the universe (as inferred from gravitational effects) can be seen directly. About 22% is thought to be composed of dark matter. The remaining 74% is thought to consist of dark energy, an even stranger component, distributed diffusely in space" ! In other words what we can see is only 4% of what represents the universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
