Oh yea, I also don't understand why we have a stereotype (or whatever) that aliens are smarter than us. I'm sure there are less developed aliens out there. Also, why do we depict them as green with antenna's and black beady eyes? They could look exactly like us.

No - from what today's technology knows, it is not possible. But that is not saying it is impossible. Because if you think about it, in the last hundred and fifty years, our technology has rocketed to sky heights, literally. And it will not stop. It is merely a question of time till we expand our observable universe with a couple of light years, and so forth. Evolution will not stop, and so won't the expanding of our knowledge - until we extinguish, at which point some other mind of some sort will probably use the information for other, or the same, uses.

No, because we will not have to expand our lifespan - speaking generally in this subject will almost never mean that one by us means us that lives today, merely those who will come.
Governments are always hiding something - for the better and worse. However they are hiding something about outer space - unquestionably, whether it is relevant for any general person but those who sits and studies numbers at NASA, no one but those know.

Ok, we know that you cannot travel at the speed of light, but Einstein left a loophole behind that, in space, you can create a bend and make what people call a worm hole, now if aliens had the right technology to manipulate worm holes then they could travel space. So the possibility is still out there, wasn't stopped with the speed of light theory.

They seem to work out, but deep down scientists don't know why. They still don't know why objects have mass, or why mass causes gravity, all they have are theories. And they still have yet to fit relativity with quantum mechanics, once that happens, everything will start to make sense, and depending on how it works out, the light barrier may be broken.

Why it has mass is because a greater being decided it to, or something, it may not even be a being, something. . . but what created that? Theirs religion but who made the gods? In Greek mythology they say the Titans did, but who made the Titans? You could go on and on with that and never reach an answer, in the time humans exist, I don't think we'll ever find out, it's all in the past, or maybe it's out there.

Everything is probably an infinite loop of itself. If there are gods, the gods created themselves. The universe probably has an infinite number of parallel universes, one for every possible outcome of everything. And the universe probably has an infinite cycle of big bangs, then big crunches. Life and death, antimatter from the splitting of normal matter, and the list just extends to everything.

You know, the speed of light has been breached by radio waves recently. Scientists pushed radio waves so fast they eventually just warped and went past the speed of light creating incredibly bright flashes of light similar to a sonic boom but in terms of light. Thus Einstein was technically wrong. It is thought quasars (stars extremely far away but have light pulses so bright they can be seen from earth) are spinning so rapidly that radio waves and such are actually warped into faster than light speed which is why they can be seen from earth and still be said to be 'on the edges of the universe'. Sure, humans may not be able to achieve this yet, but once our understanding of physics increases anything within the laws of physics is possible. Apparently travelling back in time is possible in space, but not from earth, as well.
On the topic of aliens there would have to be life somewhere else out there, but the question of whether aliens have in fact visited earth remains a mystery. I don't think the government is hiding any alien evidence, if they were it would have been leaked by now. Even the best kept secrets reach the media somehow. It's all just conspiracy theories and what not, which is a load of crap anyway.
p.s. I don't have the article for the light speed thing, but it was from not too long ago, maybe the end of last year if anyone wanted to search it.

Exactly. And, to further spin on that, it has been proved that a creature see what its mind wants to see to be able to interact well with the surrounding. We humans, for example, see rocks as steady, unpenetrable items, because our hands cannot penetrate rocks. It a neutrino would have a mind and being able to see, it would likely see a rock as something that's mostly empty space. Because it is.

I'm pretty sure I've read about what you are talking about a long time ago, and yes they went FTL, but technically what they did was shot a laser (or radio waves) through a medium like water (Although I think it was some goo they invented,) where the speed of light is faster, then back to a vacuum, where it gave off crazy blue radiation.

I don't see why aliens wouldn't exist. To not at least entertain the idea would be absolutely unreasonable. I don't understand why people get offended by someone else seriously considering that idea. At the same time there might not be anything out there. I tend to go by the assumption that there is.
When you get right down to it though, it really does not matter. Until it has been proven, oh wait... it has. Until life has been discovered while still alive, not just in fossil form, then there is no use worrying about it TOO much. Even if we know that life exists out there somewhere it would have absolutely no bearing on my life whatsoever.
And in the words of hitchhickers guide to the galaxy.

Mmmm I think that's different to what I'm thinking of. They used magnetic fields in the one I read. Just warped the radio waves so much they got pushed FTL. And it was only recently as well, like I said end of last year or something (I have a physics nerd friend who always sends me links like this lol) I shall try and find it...
Also @ pirate foxes, I completely agree. Who really cares if there is life on other planets, chances are we will never see it in our lifetime. Is there life? Most likely. Should we give a crap? Unless it's a direct threat to us, probably not. It's just people are so wrapped up in the whole, evolution of the universe and how did we come to be here they think life on other planets might be the answer. Doubt it. If we can't find the answer on our own planet, I doubt we ever will...

Actually the conditions required for life are extremely specific. Although we have found a ton of other solar systems by seeing if a star 'wobbles' or not, there are only a handful of planets out of those that COULD POSSIBLY hold life forms. But yea, I agree we couldn't be the only life forms in the whole universe but the conditions for life are so specific that there are probably not as many planets as we would like to think that could possibly even sustain life.

Actually the conditions for life are quite vague. Also the definition of "life" as we know it is vague and might be changed within the near future. And there are a LOT of planets out there that we DO NOT know about. In fact we only know about a "handful" of them to begin with. And that is within our own galaxy, around our solar system.
Now there are HOW many galaxies are out there in the Universe? At least 3?

Definitions are always changing of course. I mean the definition of life as it is now, does not encompass viruses because they cannot reproduce by their own means... does that make them... not living? Probably not, but anyway they are apparently not alive.
There are billions of galaxies in the universe... Of those billions there are innumerable amounts of solar systems within them. Just check out this image of apparently black sky that they pointed the Hubble telescope at: http://www.sciencemusings.com/blog/uploaded_images/HUDF-777866.jpg. Those are ALL GALAXIES in one single small patch of black sky.
Of course there would probably be life on quite a few of them, what I am saying is that life, as we know it in this point in time is very delicate and occured because the conditions were just right for it to occur. You can't just pick any old planet and say life could occur on it, because there are many many factors needed for even single cell organisms to form and survive.
I am also not saying there is any one way for organisms to come into existence, I mean the current theory for our planet is amino acids somehow bonded together to form the first prokaryotic cells caused by the water cycle as well as very hot conditions. It could occur differently on another planet for all we know. Just throwing it out there though there, are definitely certain conditions needed for life to occur, and most planets just do not have these conditions, and one day our planet won't either.

The thing with space colonisation is there is too many stupid things like gravity to take into consideration. We can't go to planets significantly larger than earth because we would be crushed under the weight. And if we were to live on planets smaller than earth, like mars, our bodies would accustom to the smaller gravity over time and then we wouldn't be able to return to earth at all because we would be crushed under the weight as well.
Not to mention the lack of atmosphere and the radiation that gets through because of it. And despite what sci-fi wants you to think, radiation is not a good thing.
mang11
08-01-2009, 12:33 AM
they have already thought of that for the gravity they have machines that simulate earth's gravity and for the atmosphere on planets like mars they want to start global warming on it so they could try to get the atmosphere back on mars beacuse it use to have one.As for the radiation theres a bunch of simple ways to prevent it.

Unfortunately, there is a common factor with all of those possibilities, money. Until every country decides on world peace, any kind of space junk or terraforming costs too much money to do.
screwbaII
08-01-2009, 05:47 AM
But there is also competition... like the moon race. highly unlikely there will ever be world peace, why? Because humans are way too aggressive. Put it this way, there were 6 hominid species, when homo sapiens were evolving. There is now one hominid species: homo sapiens. Some of those hominid species had been around for much MUCH longer than our species has even existed on this planet. Go figure.
I think a mars expedition could occur in our lifetimes, but it will be similar to the moon race. First country who gets to mars wins boasting rights for the rest of human existence!
Also there is just so many other problems like I know there is apparently water under the surface of mars or something (or at least mars used to have water or something) but still, establishing a colony on a planet with no useable resources is going to be damn hard to do.
Also with the global warming effect on mars, that doesn't give mars ozone, it gives mars a layer of heat trapping gases. It's not even giving mars oxygen. If they did that it would still take many many many years for mars to be even inhabitable for more than a short time period becuase they would have to get trees growing to produce oxygen so we can breathe without oxygen tanks.
Not to mention wheres the resources going to come from? Earth of course, but earth doesnt have unlimited resources we can just ship to mars, like water which drinking water is beginning to become a massive shortage on earth.
I guess I find it kind of pointless trying to inhabit a resourceless planet where any resources we would have to ship there ourselves from our own planet. Seems kinda of pointless to me I guess but whatever I suppose.

To go to space more often, we need cheaper energy and more. it's the main thing that's blocking us. In fact if we had more energy that didn't cause pollution, we would solve many problems.

Tell that to the oil companies who have their foot in the door so we can't close the door until we don't have any oil left. At the moment it's the cheapest source of energy there is. As it starts to deplete and the price sky rockets, THATS when we will look for a cheaper source of energy. The world revolves around money and quick short term fixes.

Yes - and that is the very problem. For example, the oil is running out. We cannot deny it, and we have to find other energy. BUT, those who have the resources (money) to be able to fund such, are the very person's who owns the oil, and they do not want to make their oil less valuable.
Right now, most car and machine companies are racing towards new motors that are not powered by any type of oil. To be simple, it's just a horse rally but with people. The pickle is that this rally cannot be won if there are no money to support the racers, and in times like this, there are not much money to play around with.
The real problem is actually that most companies with the resources to make new motors are stock companies, and the investors do not want the companies to risk pretty much all of the development money on a card that might not bring in a lot of money to the stock holders.
branch12
08-01-2009, 11:40 AM

Chokladkakan
08-01-2009, 11:44 AM
It's quite likely, yes. Somewhere in the Universe, there must be energy sources that are better than oil. The point is that we do not know where they are, or even if they are. No one would therefore risk their well earned money on a not-so-safe card, trying to find it. Also, we do not even have the technology to find such energy source just yet.

Pretty much, it's a bit of a catch 22. But as I said earlier, once oil prices go up and people start demanding cheaper alternatives, that's when the solutions will start rolling in and money will be spent on this research.

Depends on their culture, infrastructure, and their government.

There is a few different govt. types on earth and all revolve around money. I think my guess would be if it is an economy based society, the world will revolve around money. If it's based on something different like native cultures like Australian Aboriginals and Africans, although they had a system of trade they did not have a currency, and their culture was more of a take care of the land, community based one I guess??

Well of course there is life out there, the universe is mindbogglingly big. It'd be highly improbable for there not to be life. But, for you to see a UFO, that would be a one-million to one chance and even then, be highly improbable.
(Thank you Hitchhikers Guide to the Universe for teaching me the word improbable. And I mean the books more so than the movie.)

A lot of people claim to have seen UFO's, doesn't mean they actually have. There have only been a handful of reported cases that cannot be explained by so called 'experts' on the subject. Hell my dad and my brother claim to have seen something one summer night when they were both in the pool, they looks up and saw something in the sky, and it remained there a few seconds before it simply took off and vanished leaving a light trail behind it. I told them they were both crazy XD
It's not that I don't believe there is other life out there, it's more I don't believe
1. high speed space travel is possible (it's something we've seen in sci-fi movies, this 'faster than the speed of light' business. Even IF we did manage to go as fast or faster than the speed of light it would still take many many MANY MANY years to get anywhere. I mean some stars light reaches us after 10+ years. If we see a supernova occurring we're 10 years or more slow to see it. Even though light travel is fast, maybe possible it is STILL NOT that fast in terms of covering distance through space)
2. I think it's highly unlikely that life forms would travel here. We're sitting out on the edge of the galaxy, we are like, the rural areas of the milky way, in the middle of nowhere. Sure there may be other solar systems near us but 'near' does not constitute as 'close' distance-wise than say if we were a little closer inward. Unless the life forms also came from 'the rural area' of the galaxy, i.e. some where on the outskirts nearby to us, then I doubt our solar system will be checked out, if there are closer ones (which there would inevitably BE since we are sitting on the outskirts.
Do aliens exist, probably. Do the visit earth? not likely.

To them, we wouldn't be a backwater planet, we would be a very interesting 'thing'. :D

Hey from all of the fiction space books I've read, they say Earth is a backwater planet.

I dunno, the amount of junk being pumped into the oceans, it may as well be a backwater planet :p
There's apparently like some place in the pacific where all the earth's currents meet up and it's like a massive rubbish tip coz all the rubbish from all over the world that makes it into the ocean just gets caught up there. x.x

Considering I have to jump a gap through the fifth dimension to get here, I can easily move through the fourth, winding up in your present from the future.
