We might not be alone after all. Tommorow NASA is supposed to announce

Trauma-san:
Stephen Hawkings has a theory (which I may or may not agree with) that since Space as we know it is infinite, then an infinity of life and creations and basically EVERYTHING must exist within that space, since it is infinite and we know of no bounds to it. 

Here, think of it this way.

Lessay you live on Broad street, and Broad street is infinitely long.  There are only 10 houses near you, and your house is the only one that's pink.  There must be another pink house on Broad street, because if you drive down Broad street, you'll drive forever.... eventually, in that forever, it might be tommorow it might be 20 million years from now (we are talking forever!), you'll drive up to a pink house exactly like yours, except your door is red and their door is blue.

I was watching this documentary a few days ago, "what we don't know" i think it was called.....anyways, there was 2 main points

1. Even though it is difficult for life to exist on any one planet (the conditions have to be just right, ie. distance from the sun).....because there are so many galaxies, solar systems and planets....it is basically impossible for there not to be intelligent life out there somewhere.

However, the documentary brought up this paradox..

If it is taken as a given that there is intelligent life out there, how come we havnt seen it?

Our sun is relatively young compared to the age of the universe, there have been countless other suns/planets who started/died out way way way way before our solar system was even around.   By now there should have been a species of intelligent life who had evolved to a point where they were colonizing space.....or even creating/manipulating their own stars,   certainly capable of contacting life on other planets...

Or is it just that space is so mind-blowingly massive, and the proportion of life on planets is so small that we'll forever be seperated by the vastness that is the universe? 

I dig that trippy universe shit, it makes us seem so small and insignificant..

But people have seen it. What do you think those millions of sightings of UFOs are and endless government documentation along with government agents testimony, from every countries is? I don't see the toothfairy and other fictional things such as ghosts getting government agencies all pissed off so that they have to write numerous reports about them. You have to be self centered thinking and very closeminded to think that we are the only lucky intelligent being to be in a infinte space. There are new types of physics that are being discovered as we speak.. Scientists have figured out antigravity propulsion that can launch us faster than the speed of light. It has to do with a certain frequency surrounding a superconductor. This is also the concept around zero point energy. People need know there shit before having an arguement about this type of stuff. Amazingly 90% don't know what they are talking about and blast out ignorant comments.

Space is scary
