I'll wait until natural news weighs in.

Aliens are old news. I'm hearing we live in a computer simulation.

When I was in my teens back in Modesto one night I was leaving a friend's house late and saw what looked like a giant fluorescent blue nuvaring speeding silently across the clear starlit sky. It stopped abruptly and sped off in a different direction. The whole sighting was over in about five seconds. I figured it was a UFO because nuvarings hadn't been invented yet

Amirite? -
UFOs, global warming, Tang... what kinda fakakta thing will NASA dream up next.

Aliens is the dumbest idea.
If they could reach us they would be so advanced they'd destroy us in a minute. -
That was no alien. It was the loss of your virginity.BearsWiin said:When I was in my teens back in Modesto one night I was leaving a friend's house late and saw what looked like a giant fluorescent blue nuvaring speeding silently across the clear starlit sky.

This. The time and space involved of another living organism getting here makes it unlikely. And if they could we'd have no shot.Pitchfork51 said:Aliens is the dumbest idea.

I think it’s fair to consider if they had that kind of technology why would they even bother with us?YellowSnow said:

Has it occurred to you the aliens maybe don't identify as attack helicopters?Pitchfork51 said:Aliens is the dumbest idea.

That's certainly a possibility. Look, I think it's more likely than not there is other life in the Milky Way. But getting a planet like Earth which can sustain life - in spite of many near extinction events - is like a 1 in a billion shot. Our Galaxy is 120,000 light years wide. So what are the odds of another Earth-like situation within, say, just 50 light years of us and they AND they are so much further along than us as a species that they could actually get her. It's pretty damn remote when you think about it.allpurpleallgold said:

Also, we have to remember that 99.9999% of all life is primitive on Earth and doesn't know much about astronomy. An evolutionary twist or turn here and there and we are all still monkeys. No SMOD and perhaps Dinos are still here. So, we have to consider not just the probability of other life but the odds of it being evolved. -
People always ask the question about why the aliens aren't here yet if there are so many.YellowSnow said:

Usually it is for proponents of the simulation hypothesis. If there WERE aliens, they would be here by now, they say. But here is the thing:
Earth has had the capability to reach other worlds in our own solar system for about 50 years, give or take. We have been utilizing technology that could attract attention for maybe 115.
Considering how damn big the Milky Way is, the odds are that if anyone IS coming, they wouldn't be close yet, because it is an extraordinarily low chance that a. Earth has been detected as a potential civilization worth contacting (considering we can only be heard up to around 115 or so light years away MAX at this point) and b. Like you said, the closest aliens are not likely to be that close. The more likely visitation scenario is in fact the science fiction hypothesis where they come because they need our world- as we are still an anomaly when it comes to conscious life even though there ought to be more in thr galaxy and universe. -
If aliens could reach us, it's far more likely that they have gotten that far because they figured out that violence is not the answer. A life form that advanced probably has figured out that cooperation and peace are more beneficial. They are probably watching us for fun, or maybe using us for experimentation.Pitchfork51 said:Aliens is the dumbest idea.

Or they are waiting for the troops to get here because we taste like chicken.PurpleJ said:

Good points. As a precaution, however, we shouldn't be sending DMs into outer space letting others know we are here.jhfstyle24 said:

I've seen almost the exact same thing. My brother and one of my dads and I were camping and checking out stars when we saw what looked like two satellites moving in parallel. Suddenly, they both stopped then quickly shot off in another direction.BearsWiin said:When I was in my teens back in Modesto one night I was leaving a friend's house late and saw what looked like a giant fluorescent blue nuvaring speeding silently across the clear starlit sky.

Did you take the red pill or the blue pill?

Carbon based life forms would never make it here because radiation. But I’m sure there are silicon ( Hi Stormy!!!) or other elemental forms of life out there. But for in order for this life form or their tech to reach us, they’d either had to master time travel and/or space jumps through worm holes. The odds of these things occurring are low given the size of our galaxy and the universe. And of course whether time travel and space hopping is even possible. They are out there somewhere, just not here.

Or they will nuke us from orbit to be sure we don't spread.
