Whoa Dude. What a cosmic conversation.
 
Out in the desert when we saw what we thought were UFOS, they usually turned out to be something from The Skunkworks at Edwards AFB. Gotta figger a good share of the Mojave Desert around the old homeland was operated by the military. China Lake, Fort Irwin, Edwards AFB, George AFB, covered a whole buncha square miles and not that far away from Barstow.

Oh I fully believe there is other planets out there in the universe with life on them. No doubt in the millions upon billions of stars out there that there’s another planet with similar life forms. Which is my point.

see let’s say for sake of this argument that the universe was all created in a Big Bang moment. All starting at the same point. Now the theory of universal evolution states that all life and everything else in the universe evolved from that point on, therefore, if bacteria evolved into life forms that later evolved into humans over the course of billions of years, then that also happened on similar planets right? Which therefore means that any other “human like” or intellectual beings evolved at the same pace we did. We don’t have inter-solar system/planetary travel that defies the basic laws of physics which means neither does any other life form on another planet.

Put 2 people in different rooms with the same bunch of stuff and they could do the same or possibly something completely different with it. Why would you expect life on another planet. Likely with different resources to do the same thing as us over billions of years?

So funny story. My uncle and his first wife lived upstairs above my grandfathers garage, across the drive from my grandfathers house. She was nutty. But she swore every summer that she was seeing UFOs. Insisted on locking the second story windows and all. So one day when they were gone, my grandfather snuck upstairs, took the catch off the window and took it to the grinder, ground it down just so that it’s barely catch. He then took a long handled shovel and rigged it so that it would hook the window, pull out ever so slightly and raise the window. Then he waited a few days until they came home from one of their nightly get drunk parties, and proceeded to open the window from the drive way. She’d come running to the window, look around, couldn’t see anything, she’d shut the window, he’d wait a couple minutes and repeat the process. This went on for a while, and after he’s finally gotten bored with it and had gone back inside, this sheriff car pulled in. She’d called the cops and told them there was aliens trying to get in her window:rofl:


That was like throwing gas on a fire. The next morning while they slept off their hang overs, he rigged a big kite with green Christmas lights and tossed a fishing line up over the top of the trees, ran it to the TV antenna and hooked the kite to it.
A few nights later, he repeated the window trick but this time, when she came to the window, he hit the switch on the Christmas lights and yanked the kite across the line. Her screams were heard for miles

The most intelligent life on this planet has 9 brains, can see across infrared to ultraviolet color spectrums and can taste what it touches. It also leads and organizes other species to do what it wants them to do. It can problem solve and change its environment to best suit it’s needs. It does no harm and works only to make its environment better and more productive for all.

It also only lives for only about 2 years before it dies...and accomplishes more in terms of learning and influence in that short span than most humans do in their 8 decade lifetime.

Yes and no. While the resources would be likely be different, evolutionary intelligence would grow at near the same rate. So wyhile the technology would most certainly be different, it would be highly unlikely to be advanced enough to have interplanetary travel that could defy the laws of physics and time even. For example, it takes a probe, traveling at tens of thousands of miles an hour over 70 years to reach Pluto. And another 20 years just to leave the edge of our solar system. No way inter system travel could take place,

Based on our understanding of physics today, perhaps. But it wasn’t but a few dozen decades ago when the steam engine was beyond our ability to conceive of either. A few dozen decades before that and we couldn’t comprehend a simple concept like gravity.

We know nothing of what what we will understand in the future. That is called humility...and only when we acknowledge our ignorance and shed the arrrognce of pretending that we do, can we possibly learn what we don’t know now.

All very true.
 
The universe is endless. Even if odds are a billion to one, i can be sure there are species far more advanced than us. And others less advanced.

and if the sun runs out of gas we are all screwed.

And why do they need a month. Shame on me but just a opinion. I won't go any further.

They need a month only because it wasn’t possible to get a whole year. C’mon...”them”?

Really?

You wouldn’t like to know my ancestry...I’m one of them “them”.

Now, look me in the eye and say that again.

You're a person. I'll judge you based on your actions, not your ancestry.

I figure the sun has enough gas in the tank for the rest of my life. I'm good!
 
Just finished my workout, and shower. Now headed out to the Cafe for breakfast and coffee. Pics to follow...
