    Martin Rees, a great scientist, is well worth listening to.

    I am 50 now and hearing that we will live a long time- it certainly feels like society has cast me aside already. Ageism is real still. :(

    I will listen to this again. It encapsulates almost everything Im interested in. In 2014 I came across a BBC article on the the Timeline of the Far Future and it was fascinating. Theres also a book that the BBC infographic references and it's called The Five Ages of the Universe by Adams and Laughlin. So to come across this talk by Rees is brilliant. He really hones it down on humanity's influence and prospects. I wish humanity had an element of the evolution of the ethical and spirituality of itself. Probably not far off Star Trek;s Directives. Sometimes I also wonder if humanity will evolve into "aliens" and maybe we are at the start not the middle of finding life. I wish in some ways I could live to find out but that goes against sort of what I believe in. Has anyone heard of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin? ah well...

    Rees early shot at economists shows his bias for science based government policy. Market forces unhindered by government interventionism and cronyism is more likely to solve problems than government intervention. Rees may be more of an astrologist than he thinks.

    Rees has consistently rubbished any suggestion that we are being visited by aliens. See ‘To the Stars Academy’ he’s in for a big wake up call.

      No, you are! ....... if that's possible with a non-event?
      If you had half a brain you'd think it through ... like Martin Rees has.
      Just as we here are evolved to a knife-edge of conditions on earth other life (if any) will equally have evolved to its own subset of environmental parameters. We cannot break away long term from our environment without our biology breaking down. Disregarding the technical and financial blockers, this is the main reason man to Mars and back will not happen. Likewise the same applies to "ET". Now add the fact that interstellar travel requires huge resources to maintain any form of life for the large time frame involved to make theoretical trip. The problem is exponential, and "rectifications" ramp up the exponential barrier.
      Then there is our location. Our entire speed of light transmissions radiating from our planet have created an attenuating bubble which occupies a mere speck in our own vast galaxy. In other words our "address" has almost NO visibility to anyone! Nearest star 4 light years.
      I could go on and on and detail all the things that prohibit this daydream but I'm guessing you like most have been educated by Hollywood and dodgy RUclips videos? . Do some proper research and proper thinking for goodness sake and don't be sucked in by garbage, including the sales claims by the likes of Elon Musk. And when you're still waiting long after I (and Martin Rees) have gone look back and learn something.
      If ET exists (and that's a long shot many educated people doubt) it will never interact with us.
      Keep waiting and keep making excuses or inventing ways to rationalise ET not coming .... ever

      SearchBucket2 what an interesting comment. Thank you for your lengthy reply. Ok now let’s just inject a little bit of common logic into the equation if we can. Firstly in order to be appraised of what’s current you would have to view ‘To the Stars Academy’ presentation.In that you will find reference to three videos which have recently been declared genuine by the US Navy. They purport to be footage of Ariel vehicles performing way above the known limits of current technology. The footage was allegedly taken by F18 pilots in 2004, , interesting to say the least as the ‘Phil Larson declaration’ issued by Obama in 2011 categorically stated that there was ‘credible evidence that anything was being hidden from the public’s eye’...er...whoops...look like they missed this little lot. So.... If pilots civilian and military say they have seen ‘craft of this nature’ or ‘flying saucers’ if we want to call them that then there are only two possibilities, either they are lying or telling the truth. Pilots in my most people’s opinion are credible individuals who’s mental stability is an important factor in their continued employment. They are unlikely to be making these incidents up. If they are not making them up then they are telling the truth.If they are telling the truth then there are only two possibilities either these craft are man made or they are not. If they are man made then persons are flying these craft with seeming impunity through various countries airspace risking the triggering of a nuclear war. If they are not man made then....well I’ll let you figure that one out.

      Typo....should read ‘no credible evidence’

    • @maysky3695
      @maysky3695 4 года назад

      www.britannica.com/science/Drake-equation - statistically likely, but a US Navy video is not conclusive proof, it is a UFO, that is all. Nobody mentioned seeing any aliens flying the craft, or landing and getting out and communicating with anyone, or leaving any evidential trace. Of course, Martin Rees will not state that aliens exist, he is a scientist and there is absolutely no empirical, proven data suggesting the existence of aliens at this present time.

      May Sky hear what you say....however it would appear that the game is changing at a rapid rate. Firstly though can I venture to suggest to you that Martin Rees may have a vested interest in keeping the ‘there are no aliens visiting us’ status quo as I understand that he is being employed (and I stand to be corrected) by a Russian billionaire setting up the ‘breakthrough listen project’. Revelation that we are already being visited would be catastrophic for the project, not to mention his credibility. But in fairness I sure he is an individual who would put personal standing aside for a massive realisation of this magnitude. It would appear ( if the New York Times is anything to go by) that very shortly there is going to be an announcement from the Pentagon that we have possession of quote ‘off world vehicles’ I sure if this happens, you as much as him will be delighted to have been proven wrong. Interesting times indeed.

      either senile or pushing the NWO using the CO2 LIE.
      Earth is a closed loop that self regulates CO2 with life.
      Energy is neither created nor destroy. On this planet. All energy comes from our goes to electromagnetic toroidal fields.
      Milankovitch cycles cause climate change
      Earths climate cycles are continental glaciers with lower sea levels brought about by global tsunami's every 13,000 years when our solar system crosses over the galaxies equatorial plane.
      Gobekli tepe. CO2+H2O captures the energy of the Sun and creates Life.
      Covid is the Baby Boomers turning seniors Bust due to the usual suspects of seasonal FLU and old age.
