      Ty Lex, im in UFO mood right now. Should we as humans set up array of consumer RGB cameras that look at sky and feed that stream into AI that detects objects and report if there is something strange :D ?? I feel like we should look at the sky much more than we do right now.

    Considering what we can detect and see out there in space with our current technology it's easy to imagine that a civilization that exists in our local galactic group that is only 1000 years ahead of us in science and technology would most likely already be aware of earth and its biosignature.
    A civilization that is only 10,000 years ahead of us would most likely be aware that a civilization inhabits earth and might even have the means to send probes or craft to investigate in a relatively short amount of time (maybe they have warp drive or wormhole technology).
    A civilization that is 100,000 years ahead of us probably doesn't give a crap about us as we are probably a dime a dozen across the cosmos and therefore uninteresting.

    • @HansenFT
      @HansenFT 2 года назад +6

      Regarding the last paragraph.. would the entire sivilization have to care? We, as a sivilization may not care to much about some obscure animal species perhaps, but enough people do that some are studying it none the less. Also, would curiosity and compassion for other living beings always be reduced with technological advancement? Lastly: If we are a dime a dozen. I think 100 000 years ahead would be pretty numerous. Given how little that actually compared to the age of the universe etc. 10 000 years seems almost negligible. Even if a fair amount of our "equals" would go extinct, still.Ten or a hundred thousand years aren't huge numbers..

    • @03chrisv
      @03chrisv 2 года назад +8

      @@HansenFT Yes you're right those numbers aren't too big, but it's to basically illustrate that any civilization that is even just remotely ahead of us in technology and lives in our galactic local group already knows the answer if "we're alone in the universe" and is most likely already aware of earth. This does lead to the possibility that we are being actively monitored by other intelligences and could explain some UAP sightings.
      I imagine there could be civilizations out there millions of years ahead of us, perhaps even billions if they managed to survive. They could be God-like beings for all we know.

    All this talk about millions of years in difference made me think... There might be some low number (around 10 straight out of my ass) of civilizations that get to the level of technology necessary for planetary expansion at the same time, lets say a timespan of 100.000 year for a low estimative. As we are getting there a few other species of aliens are at the same/close to our evolutionary and technological state eventually finding each other amd exchanging knowledge if possible, because the universe is so vast and harsh that these civilizations might be wiped from time to time not being able to contact one another, and only when a lot of species of advanced life have an intertwined net of information, history, and technology we will be able to surpass a few universal catastrophes here and there right?

It won't be slower, it won't be faster, and it'll be in every direction that there's a nearby star. So you'll get a sphere of influence that expands at 0.1x C.
      Like imagine you're in a park. You're playing hide and seek, against people who can run 10 mph. Before you start playing, you send a drone up with a camera on it. When you start counting, all these people will start running towards nearby trees, bushes, and trash cans to hide behind. From the perspective of the drone, what does that look like? A _circle_ that expands at 10 mph in any direction. Now, add a third dimension and imagine hide and seek in space but starships flying at 10% of the speed of light; you'll be seeing a _sphere_ that expands at 10% of the speed of light.

    The more we advance as a species the more we turn inwards to our own created worlds. I think one of the reasons we don't see incredibly powerful alien species modifying the universe as they see fit is because at some certain stage of technological development civilizations find it more appealing to turn inwards instead of manipulating the environment around them. All we'd really be able to detect from that sort of civilization would maybe be their energy harnessing devices. Even those would probably just black out a star though, so that would be hard to notice. There are areas of the universe that are very dark though. Statistically there should be many many more stars in those areas and yet there aren't. Those could be energy harvesting fields.

      He is a economist, he didn’t study any fields he’s talking about
      He doesn’t know what he’s talking about
      He believes there’s millions of civilizations out there
      There’s a lot of variables that haven’t been taken into consideration, they only look at the facts that help their view look stronger, even with a third generation star, the chances for the solar system to form a planet to handle life, are almost mathematically impossible, the Drake equation is just a guess, not bad one, but still a guess, even if you add the possibility of life starting off silicon based(mind you it’s only theoretical) the chance is still near zero, if I’d have to decide wether we are the only example of complex carbon compounds being able to self replicate and gather a conscious, or wether the chance allows for it to be more common, I’d chose the lone mans path, plus add the fact that even if life forms else where in this space we call everything, the chances of it becoming multicellular are low, not terribly low, but there’s just a higher chance life will stop at a algae or moss form, calm equal, then from multicellular to human level conscious? Just keep in mind out of the estimated 8.3 million species tracked, not counting the ones forever forgotten, and the 4.28 billion years it took to get us humans, we are the only species to reach this mark accomplishment in thought
      Just wanted to reply with the fact that this guy might have spent several years in his studies, he couldn’t go out all the way and at least try to look at it a little bit deeper
      If he wants to write a fiction book, he could of, but he brought all of these theories and partially completed facts, (mind you only the facts that make his statement look good) and is speaking as it’s complete fact
      He’s not smart, he’s manipulative
      Life is basically impossible, we may be the only example or one of the very few, 10-100 (out of the “infinitely” large universe) civilization

    Because mathematics can be used to model human biased observations of events in“Reality”, mathematics is often confused with being that “Reality”. This entire discourse, and others like it, is based on this erroneous and unproven premise. Thus, highly educated individuals with technical vocabulary “sound” convincing.

    I think the more plausible theory is that aliens would bend space to travel at speeds faster than the speed of light and also travel in time.

    The way that this gentleman is using “cancer” in his analysis could not be used if he really understood what cancer is. He uses it with the assumption that if cancer is not detected, that cancer doesn’t exist at all in the body. The reality is that everyone has cancer in their body, all the time. It isn’t something that shows up in the body later on, and the older a person is, the slower cancer grows.
    But there is a process called “apoptosis”, which is programed cell death. When a cell perceives that it is damaged, it will trigger a gene that causes the cell to dismantle itself, and dissolve its material. If a cell refuses to die, messenger cells are sent to kill the cell that is refusing to die. When a damaged cell refuses to die, that is known as cancer. So death is inextricably connected to life, and death is manifesting in your body millions of times a day - possibly trillions of times a day - since the human body contains between 50 to 75 trillion cells. When the process of eliminating these cells that refuse to die fails to eliminate the cancerous cells at a sufficient rate to keep their numbers low enough, the cancerous cells form a tumor or overwhelm the body and the body dies. Cancer has been called cells taking a vacation from death.
    Apoptosis is also used by the body for other purposes. Such as while a fetus is forming during pregnancy, the fetus goes through a transformation of the body that reveal the evolution of the species. Hands have webbing between the fingers which are removed by apoptosis, cells dying. A child is born with a brain that has more cells than an adult. But as the child goes through the process of learning, apoptosis is used to remove cells that are unneeded as the brain maps itself with each life experience.
