    My 9 year old has gone space mad over the last few weeks. I’m about to melt his brain with all that! Thanks for posting, great link!

    Now the question is where are all the aliens? 😆

    Some say they don’t exist others say our brain is too small to comprehend that possibility.

    For the rigid minded we are the “universe” we are intelligent because there are no other possibility … :mrgreen:

    Space is big. Really big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space.

    I sometimes hate that one climb on my regular local loop. In reality it’s not that far at all really 😀

    I recently bought the Star Walk 2 app, as well as the satellite addons, for me iPhone.

    Spent a pleasant, and mildly drunken, evening over the weekend checking out all the bits and bobs. As it works like a window onto the stars depending on where you point the phone.

    Amazing how often we forget to look up and go whut?

    …as well as down, of course.

    On their own planets, which are all a really really really really long way away.

    Where are the aliens?
    Consider this photo:

    The Hubble Ultra Deep-field image, a series of exposures taken of a tiny section of sky in Ursa Major. Apart from a couple of very bright stars, every thing in the photo is a galaxy, going back in time about thirteen billion years.
    http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_Ultra-Deep_Field
    Just imagine how many galaxies fill the sky in every direction, and how chuffing far away they are, with how many hundreds of millions of stars in each galaxy, and how many possible planets.
    It’s the distance thing that’s the issue here, not where are they.

    ‘Where are all the aliens’
    Dunno but I’d bet a weeks pay they’d dress in black loose clothing, wave guns about, yap on about some god or another & go around chopping peoples heads off.

    Good questions. :mrgreen:

    Why would they?

    Because they found us first so they can define mankind as they like.

    Why wouldn’t they be parasites too?

    They might be themselves but then why would they consider themselves that way when the underdeveloped beings can only consuming themselves to death?

    Why wouldn’t they be just like us?

    If they are like us then we are all doomed because we harvest the weak.

    The one that found us are the “good ones” but wait until the ones with similar mindset like us find us … then we get harvested. 😯

    Missed that response.

    I wonder if one galaxy is only capable of maintaining one type of intelligent being? Yes? Otherwise, we would have seen our long lost “cousins” if there are more than one type of beings? 😛

    Imagine aliens belonging to a society with technology so advanced that it’s indistinguishable from magic.

    I bet they’ve finally agreed on a wheel size standard.

    My brother sent me a link to an article that said for every grain of sand on earth, there are potentially 100 habitable planets. And that you have three stages of civilisation and we’ve yet to make it to one.

    So it’s not that we can’t pick up the signals from Planet X using our technology, it’s that we can’t even comprehend what the beings from Planet X are or what they’re trying to do.

    Civilisations hang around for such a short amount of time, that it’s very unlikely another civilisation will exist by the time we receive any signal they’ve emitted.

    We’ve only been producing radio signals for 200 years, so only those stars very close to us have received those signals.

    As a slight aside there are mathematically (though not practical whilst actually playing) more variations of a game of chess (10 to 123) than number of atoms in the observable universe (10 to 81)

    And on a board somewhat smaller!
