Everything happens at the right time. The reason why we have not fully be contacted by intelligent life is what do we have to offer at this moment? We are just big kids, this is mine, I want that, no i don't want to. The only thing we have to offer is what we had in the first place, or have. It's our ability to see beauty and sense and acknowledge love. But not love as we know it to be, that's personal love. This is impersonal love. Air is impersonal, food, water and the other countless things on Earth. It's all unconditional love.

Each intelligence has something unique to offer, it's not hard to see that everything on Earth is unique, yes some share similarities but none 2 potatoes are the same. So when the whole of humanity has realised something more than their selfishness, as all man is interested in is what he can get out of space. Not what he can give, as everything gives. That's the our biggest flaw as a species. But with the power of whatever got us to now will sure get us there because when we are 'there' it will be now and it is always, now.

Good thing we all got a ticket to see the incredible 'movie' called life! haha.

The universe is so immense that we humans can't truly comprehend it's size, let alone imagine the myriad of possibilities in which "life" exists out there.

I kind of see it as a form of arrogance that we as humans would expect an intergalactic species just to stop by for a kegger....so to speak.

That's a bullshit report on a bullshit copycat website.

Science is very interesting when it based on theory or fact. But its not science when shit is just made up and pulled out of one's ass. That is what this is. NASA and various other REAL scientific reports do not support this claim. Not even close.

So far, less than 200 planets have been found to be in the "Goldie-Lox" zone, and of those, 2 have gravitational forces that can support an atmosphere. And those two planets orbit a red dwarf.

I could go on. But Im sure you can do your own research.

I think it's worth remembering that the Drake Equation is nothing more than a natural consequence of combining grad students with pitchers of beer. Kids, please don't do this at home. cn

I once heard a lecturer say: “Why is it that a humans ego is so large, that he thinks himself so special that there is no race from another planet or world anywhere else in the Universe?”
I think we are being watched by the aliens now….Like we are the zoo, and they are the keepers…
Hahaaaaaaaaaaa why not.....

60 Billion Planets in our Milky Way Galaxy Could Support Life
So, you may not believe in Aliens….
However, there are 60 Billion reasons in our galaxy alone, multiply that by how many galaxies there are, so, my guess is a lot…of planets that could support life…
We Are Not Alone….the odds are just too great, that there is not another Earth out there somewhere….

Is it ok if I post an article about asteroids on your thread or would you rather keep it to the specific topic at hand and I'll start a different thread?

I can't imagine that there could be no life except what we experience here in our time and level of evolution. There is life elsewhere...even if it exists as plant life or bacterial life or a planet of finshaggy like beings. The stuff of which we're created, that primordial soup, exists everywhere in the universe. So the potentiality for life is everywhere. That we can't see it is not evidence of its non existence but evidence of our inability to see that far. And just as well. If we could we would just enslave it and rob it of its natural resources. It's what we do.

See4 .... you are one bad mofo. Not only are you a computer genius you also have a grasp of astronomy and other cosmic sciences and if that wasnt enough you are a man who knows he likes a pocket pussy and isnt afraid to tell everyone and in my circle of friends that makes you a person who demands a certain amount of respectability
With alll that going for you... you my friend would he a natural choice to represent the human race when we are finally contacted by people from another world .........like South Carolina or maybe Mars !
Go forth and prosper my young jedi

I think that's a bold assumption that if the conditions are similar to what we expect will be conducive to life that life has been spontaneously created. 60 billion planets X 200 billion galaxies is a lot of potential planets, but what if the odds of going from primordial soup to life is 1 in 100 trillion trillion? If that's the case then there is almost certainly no life anywhere else in the universe. As far as we know abiogenisis only happened once - on earth.

Also the reason we have not been contacted by an intelligent race...

Even if every one of those planets did have intelligent life, how would they contact us? How could they possibly get to us in a timely manner? 60 billion planets to choose from is an unfathomable number of planets. And if they happen to choose us out of the 60 billion planets, what are the odds they would be doing it right now? The universe is pretty fucking old, and 50 thousand years ago is not that long on a universal time scale. Hell 50 million years isn't that long. But they would have had to land in the last couple thousand years. The odds are astounding that they could possibly visit us during any time period even if they could instantly traverse the universe in a magic space ship. The odds that they could visit us, and happen to visit us right now, are so astronomical that you cannot possibly comprehend them.

read Rare Earth. There are planets with tiny organisms, yes. But, Earth is quite rare

Ay why do people who believe in aliens and that they came to earth to help us evolve always have a crazy hairdoo?

So, in the exponentially unlikely chance that the closest 'habitable' planet forster's life, and that life was intelligent, and they knew that earth existed, and they knew intelligent organisms were living here, and they actually wanted to visit us, and they have sophisticated long range space fairing vessels, and those vessels have incredibly fast methods for traveling space;

They'd still have to travel, 122,986,869,000,000 kms to get to us, or 13 light years. That's trillion btw, with a 'T'.... :D

Also, if they have the ability to search for, and locate intelligent life and there really are 60 billion x 200 billion habitable planets, the chances of them picking earth is exponential unlikely as well.
