UAP/UFO thread - Non-Human Intelligences

That’s over an hour of my life wasted on a fairy story. Not one shred of evidence. Just anecdotes.

Didn't even bother, was reading last night at which distance would the earth be detectable to any intelligent alien life, and it was a maximum 12000 light years which is hardly any distance at all, so even if there are any life forms currently existing across the universe they most likely don't even know we exist.
 
How can one do such an assumption? 12.000 light years.. With current human technology that is? Some years ago we couldn't even think of oberserving other planets in other systems. Now we can study the composition of their athmospheres. There is detectable life on earth for billions of years.
 
We are realising that we can't bend the laws of physics and that our reachable universe is much smaller than our observable one.

SF would have you believe that warp drives and time portals are just a few generations away but in truth, they exactly the fiction they come from.

This is why we are alone and will likely always will be.

Detecting intelligent life.There may possibly be more advaced technoligies to detect life than we know about. There is no evidence of any though.

Earth Detecting Earth

Could a twin Earth detect Earth?

Okay, so that is flawed. Radio is used since around a 130 years. It's unlikely this will be any source of aliens detecting "intelligence" on earth and the "cap" of 12k years is far ahead obviously. It doesn't matter though. Life is appearing since over a billion years and of course could be detected most of this time as well. If we would be able to detect _life_ on an exo planet and would have the technology to fly there, we of course would do it. No matter what if there is some self-declaring civilization or not. Long story short, it doesn't matter much if aliens can detect life or intelligent life on earth if they are advanced enough. And if they are not as advanced, it doesn't matter at all in the end. Does it?

It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination

that seems a bit like the argument that the average number of legs per human being is one.

and yet, quite possibly true.

it's a funny old world universe
