    I've studied astrophysics and astrobiology for years, the possibilities are impossible to comprehend. The more I've learned over the years, the more I realize we can't be the only ones. The cosmos are too vast, too many forms that life can take, we are just a tiny part of the story.

      @@hakkefeke9236 that is an amazing channel and he is a remarkable person who I admire. My perspective is that being alone in the universe is millions of times more terrifying than not being alone. I think life is abundant in the universe however you’re correct in saying that the only answer we can give is “I don’t know”. To prove that life does not exist outside earth however would mean that we would have to search the entire universe which isn’t feasible. On the other hand if we find even a single microbe outside earth than we can confirm the existence of life besides our own. I just hope it happens soon!

    I don't comment often, but I spent a lot of time revising this over and over again, because I think it's worthwhile to say:
    Taking a fictional or plausible idea seriously is NOT AT ALL the same thing as BELIEVING IT'S REAL. Being philosophical is a completely different thing from being gullible.
    There is a kind of anti-intellectualism that condemns or belittles anyone who wonders about the possible or the fantastical, simply because those things are not ACTIVELY taking part in our physical lives RIGHT NOW. If it's not a direct utility to be used day to day, then they think it's childish to "take it seriously". This kind of broken reasoning will waste you away.
    Daydreams like these are the only reason why I survived my last job for as many years as I did. I'd call that some real-world benefit, if you ask me.
    You, Luka, are doing nothing wrong here, and it pains me every time I see hesitation, all because someone out there gave you the impression that it's wrong to just have fun with this. You clearly have thoughts to give, and questions to ask, but then you cut yourself short because some rando (who never examined a thing in their whole life) mistook philosophy and open-mindedness for gullibility and belief.
    There's neither joy nor health in being an empty utilitarian husk. People will only make fun of you for daydreaming like this if they have literally nothing else going on in their own lives, and/or because they make every single thing into a competition, and aspire to be as bland as they possibly can be.
    Maybe science isn't your thing. That's totally valid, and that's not even the only place where philosophical thinking can be applied! Consider how philosophy could be applied to examining your job, friendships, relationships, partner, etc.
    Being able to navigate these things effectively can be greatly improved if you brainstorm possibilities, potential futures, possible forms of interaction, etc, just like what the writer did for this video; they just happened to apply these skills to examining possible alien lifeforms.
    Anyone who claims to just intuit their way through social interactions (or "just vibe") is still using a blurry version of this, which they had to have learned in some way, even through unnoticed trials and errors. You might not think about how you're participating in a friend group, but if you found success in your specific behavior pattern, and you did not change it (because it seemed to be working), then that's literally a metaphor for evolution in practice.
    Philosophical thinking can, therefore, be for entertaining yourself, AND for utility/application/growth.
    On a much larger scale:
    Researchers only know where to look next because they take unconfirmed, plausible ideas like these seriously, and test these ideas inside and out until something real is pulled from them to benefit our society as a whole. Those researchers, in turn, only get funding because part of the public recognizes the possible benefit, and takes it seriously, too.
    In entertainment:
    The philosophical exploration of a character is a cornerstone to writing believable/relatable heroes to be written into a book, movie, or videogame. I feel like the benefits of writing better media shouldn't need explanation. Your favorite stories likely came to fruition only because a writer, at some point, took the story seriously. People can literally make a living off of this.

    These videos deserve top art prizes. As for science, I'm pretty sensitive to BS and these don't trigger my alarms. Where they get a little out there, they seem to reliably say so. Unless it just plain contradicts physics, we don't know what is impossible for life. Even in this video, the one possible mistake I noticed was saying silicon life probably couldn't live in an oxygen atmosphere. Oxygen can destroy what we are made of too, but we evolved chemistry to tame it. The same might be true of silicon life if there is any such thing. On earth, there are microbes that live in solid rock. IIRC they have very slow metabolisms and are thought to live for thousands of years. If someone hadn't found them, I don't think I would have though such things were possible. I guess the point I'm trying to make is don't worry much about what someone says in a comment about what is and isn't possible for alien life because they almost certainly don't know.

    100% yes to the comments about the 'haters'(?). Probably the best use-case scenario for that term.
    A lot of the rendering and animations you see, not only on Melodysheep's videos, are representations and artistic interpretations. They are not what we think things actually look like. The importance of them isn't in their realism, it's the information they convey.
    Like aliens in Star Trek, Star Wars and every other scifi media (although Star Trek worked it into the plot). They're representations. Of course we can't depict what an alien would look like, we've never seen any!
    An example in this video is the alien flying in the clouds of a brown dwarf at around 25:00 , that thing wouldn't be able to fly as far as I can throw a car. But it gets the point across.

      (Edit:As far as I'm aware). It is built to be able to (among other things) get a glimpse at the composition of some exoplanets atmospheres, by carefully measuring the spectrum the light of its star while an exoplanet passes between JW and the star. As in chapter 1 explained, we might find compositions of gases that we can't explain without life. That would still be an amazing discovery and potentially a great step towards finding alien life. Not even counting the countless other things JW will help us explore.
