Isnt It about gravity being a measurable constant, and when the universal expansion reaches a certain point it will start contracting ? This, if correct, would debunk any infinity suggestion. Cheers. If there was a big bang, then there will be a big crunch. It's a theory based on certain diciplines of understanding. Now, if space was already there before the bang. Is space infinite? If it was then other big bangs have happened elsewhere and crunches too And what was there before space if the bang created space? As you said mate; paradoxes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JMc 227 Posted February 4, 2021 Report Share Posted February 4, 2021 BLC1(breakthrough listen) is interesting,they have been searching for tech signals and found this,apparently past some tests that rule out anything we create or nature,releasing more results this year about it.It’s local ...in there terms,not just past the co-op,I did throw an ortovox receiver many moons ago into some brambles...it may still be giving off a dodgy signal...it’s out there 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For those that accept there is likely to be many advanced alien races out there, there are commonly two arguments used as to why we haven't been visited by any of them. That the distances are too great given the speed of light is a limit to travelling these distances That they would have destroyed us with their superior technology To those that don't accept there are likely life on other planets/systems/galaxies then there's no point in reading further. On 1. This assumes that faster than light technologies are impossible for a start. I'd be hesitant to believe that. But more importantly, it seems very plausible if not inevitable that at some point a technological species transition from being purely biological to being technological. ie time is only a factor given finite lifetimes, no one wants to waste their life driving. But if a species gets around this concern either through mastering medicine or leaving their biological bodies behind entirely then suddenly time is meaningless. So what if it takes three million years to get to the next galaxy? Or five years to get to the next star system? On 2. The history of more advanced civilisations meeting less advanced ones is indeed a history of the advanced one dominating and essentially destroying the lesser one. But that wasn't driven by an innate desire to dominate the less advanced, it was driven by the desire to take their resources for economic or geostrategic benefit. Places with non of these were given little to no effort to bring under imperial rule. So I ask, what does this planet offer that can't be found in abundance literally everywhere else in the galaxy? The only answer is biological life! As far as we are aware that is pretty rare! Now the only value I can think that Earth would have to a vastly advanced species is an opportunity to study life. IMO the only thing of value we can offer is data to alien biologists! There's f**k all else we have to make Earth worth invading/destroying etc. In terms of evidence, I offer none, I'd say most of it is BS. But the Nimitz incident is very curious! you just want to become a replicator ....lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the answer to even one of these questions is no, then we really need to reevaluate where we look and how we perceive life. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
