"Men in Black" stylist.

Don't worry. Its a clip on.

The assumption that life outside this planet exists, with absolutely no evidence is diametricaly opposed to intellect. A UFO could be one or more of many nations testing technology. Anytime someone has gotten close to or created any type pf magnetic propulsion they end up dead. Even if you use the model that scientists do, using water as the barometer for life, we havent found a planet that could sustain a carbon based lifeform, let alone an intelligent species. Fun y how nobody had ever seen a ufo until it was published in a book and subsequently film. To be clear, I dont know, anything is possible, buf the smug presumption he is making is ridiculous. The evolution theory in regard to humans is impossible. They literally used to say you dont need your appendix, its a hold over from evolution, well wouldnt we no longer have it if it wasnt used and we “evolved”. Darwin was racist and therefore a blithering idiot. He was also a proponent of phrenology and helped perpetuate the false science of melonated peoples having “stronger bones” and have “extra muscles”. This is simple, no human being alive has seen evolution, anyone can create a system of information or mathematics and reverse engineer it to for your natative

It's because we spread over this entire planet like a cancer in record time. So did the ants. So did many plants, so did the rats, etc... It seems that if a species can comfortably expand and take advantage of more resources, it will do that. So one species that can travel through stars should do the same. We will do that as soon as we reach Alpha Centauri. Once our technology let us (and we know it's physically possible to do so), we will colonize the entire galaxy and it will only take a few million years (Based on the speed that we think it's physically possible to reach). Which is nothing compared to the age of this galaxy. And that means that somebody should have done it by now and would be taking advantage of all the resources of the galaxy. But literally everything we see, it's energy from stars being "wasted" that nobody is using. Which leaves 2 options: Either we are the first in this galaxy (and nearest galaxies) or something is killing the civilizations that try to explore the galaxy...

According to an international poll taken by scientists, over 80% believe there is life beyond earth. That’s encouraging to me.

That’s because most scientists believe in data and observable fact and not an overwhelming desire for something to be true because they watch too much science fiction

@Dr. Chris Raynor Fire, metals, intelligence. Once you have those it's just a snap of the fingers by cosmic time until supercomputing and, quite probably, superintelligence arises.

I do too. I'll often read comments or hear people say ideas where they are negatively juxtaposing humanity to imaginary alien civilizations. The thing that's funny, is the ONLY example of advanced civilizations are here on Earth. Everything else right now is just speculation or science fiction. Maybe right now we are the most advanced civilization in the Milky Way. Maybe the Milky Way is teaming with life, but nothing more advanced than a chimpanzee or killer whale has evolved. Call me a fan of man, but I think the human mind is pretty damn amazing, and I think humanity is awesome. Who knows what great things we might accomplish over the next 500 years. We need to stop comparing ourselves to imaginary constructs.

@@WNT2BLV Theres a reason why all living things on earth (plants included) are carbon based, its his ability to form many stable and complex moleculars as no other element we know. Only other candidate who is "similar" to carbone is silicon, but he has its own problems of which scientist's dont believe its possible to produce life. So unless theres some elements we didn't discover, its very likely that life needs to be carbon based because of its complexity.

It doesn't meant that it exists either. Since there is no hints of any living form that's not carbon based , why would they add that to the equation? 🤷

If the universe lasts the length of a human life, the point we are at right now is a few nano-seconds after conception. The universe has barely started, and even at 100 trillion years old the universe will still be in its early infancy.

@Greg W The fact that trees exist. I'm convinced life could exist in ways we can't comprehend.

I didn’t see this episode yet-just this clip-so i’m not sure what his “hypothesis” is. With that, I have my own hypothesis regarding life/intelligent life in the universe. I believe that it would make sense that all life is carbon based if it’s true. Here is my argument: Too many people (in my opinion) are approaching the question incorrectly-from a philosophical perspective. There are 10^22 (or 23) stars in the known universe-and there are good reasons to believe the universe is vastly larger than what we can observe. That’s a 1 followed by 22/23 zero’s. They say to themselves there could be millions of civilizations and many billions of exoplanets with primitive life (many will say far less) However, that would still make up an exceedingly small percentage of life harboring solar systems. This conclusion is reached on a bad assumption in my opinion. And that is that life is a result of chance (accident ). I believe life is not a result of chance, but an inevitable consequence of the governing rules/forces of nature. I will provide you with a philosophical argument for why life exists in the vast majority of solar systems. When we observe the known universe we see uniformity; it’s a real lot of the same things. The universe is governed by a specific set of rules/forces, which we can label natural laws. These natural laws govern matter/energy causing it to take on specific forms, e.g. quarks, protons, neutrons, elections, atoms, elements, molecules, amino acids, proteins, moons, planets, stars, galaxies, etc. All of these systems of matter/energy do not emerge by chance (accident). Instead they are an inevitable consequence of the natural laws of the universe at work Let’s take an atom, the building blocks of larger systems including life. The strong force (or strong interaction) takes quarks, which are the smallest forms of matter we have observed and binds them together to form protons and neutrons. On a larger scale it takes these protons and neutrons, binding them to form the nucleus of atoms. The electromagnetic force takes electrons and binds them in orbit around the nucleus and the result is an atom. Two distinct forces are operating here together to produce a highly creative effect, the formation of atoms. Other forces/rules of natural laws then work upon atoms to form larger systems of matter. Why then should we assume that life-the most sophisticated system of matter-which is actually comprised of these smaller systems of matter I mentioned, a chance event (it happened accidentally). As a matter of abductiive reasoning (inference to the best explanation) the best conclusion considering all of the current data is that life is also an inevitable consequence of the natural laws of the universe. And is part of and not distinct from the uniformly we observe all throughout the universe. As a result, life exists all throughout the universe as does all the other mentioned systems of matter. Science is teaching us that rocky exoplanets around other stars exist in abudance. Mars is believed to have had a thicker atmosphere and rivers of water on its surface. The evidence for this hypothesis is growing over time.

@@orange-418lol you are correct! But yes expect the unexpected given enough time space and variables

Presumably you understand that humanity-being a species of universal, is - like all universals, imaginary, which means cannot be directly immediately personally experienced other than as an image , symbol or proxy in the dreaming or associative apparatus or mind

No, we are just an insignificant byproduct of the simulation like every other life form throughout the universe. A simulation of this magnitude wouldn’t seek to understand a bunch of apes.

What he means is that the simulation hypothesis is an answer to the Fermi Paradox in that no computer would have enough processing power/resources to run a simulation with innumerable civilizations. It would be too inefficient. That's why in simulations, images aren't rendered until they are observed.

I agree that odds are this is a simulation. The visitors may be extra dimensional, coming from outside the simulation, that is to say space and time. This would make it so that the issue of processing power is eliminated.

allot of what ifs

They may be rare things, they seem to be, and they may be the necessary conditions for life, but with the size of the universe that still leaves plenty of opportunities for intelligent life, and in that bunch there’s a potential for intelligent life that do not make the bad decisions that you’re talking about.

its a mistake to assume that other intelligent life would follow the same invention structure as humans on earth, using your example, if a civilization was on a planet covered completely by water, they wouldnt need what we need on earth. alien life, let alone intelligent life, could be so different from what we know, understand or even comprehend.

@@THeSPARTEnMORTER21 sure, and I'm note saying it's impossible. I think it's quite probable. I just don't like when people try to make equations for something that has so many variables there's no way we could account for everything. And while life may evolve differently on a different planet and achieve similar technology, there are some inherent limitations. If you want to use nuclear power you have to be on a planet with deposits of heavy radioactive elements like Uranium or Plutonium, of you don't have those you're not doing fission. Perhaps life becomes highly advanced but their atmosphere obscures the stars, so astronomy is not a thing, they can't observe things that would prove general relativity. There a lot of single points of failure.

It would only need to be theoretically possible for the universe to be flooded with it. I think the universe is so big, and there's so many universes that you would only need the slightest chance for there to be a nearly infinite number

Oh, they know. Also, they are here. 🛸

Based on what? The conditions for us are a singular example. There is zero evidence that our development is the optimal route... not to mention that the conditions required are often based only upon those parameters 'we think' life can develop under. Even those parameters have changed over discoveries in recent times, or did we forget that? I would guess that life is far more malleable than people think.

@@cevain I arrived at these conclusions by examining basic principles and extrapolating. My claim consists of 4 parts, surely you will find them reasonable if I break it apart: 1) Claim: Advanced life has evolved many many times Justification: There are by some estimates over 100 trillion earth like planets and they are on average age 1 billion years older than Earth. I don't think we or Earth are that special, certainly not 1/100,000,000,000,000 special. It feels intuitively more likely that life is an emergent property (as another guest on the podcast said) of a low entropy energy source bathing a surface containing a solvent and the constituent chemicals necessary for complex reactions for billions of years. 2) Claim: At least some advanced life has transcended organic chemistry and uses light as the basis of being and consciousness Justification: positive 3) Claim: For at least some light based life, the barriers to reproduction and expansion will be removed and it will spread widely and rapidly through the universe compulsion 4) Claim: At least some of these advanced, light based, prolific intelligences will be benevolent. Justification: Admittedly this is somewhat weak. I do feel that any advanced life will certainly be curious. Maybe only life which evolved from social creatures have something like morality, and who knows what the fraction of life that reaches an intelligent stage that would be. I do feel, however, for humans at least there is a positive correlation between intelligence and morality. throughout

This is a refreshing take on our potential evolution. ty

@@cevain we are human beings hu-man hue means light, we are creatures that thrive off light, that’s why when you eat an apple that was grown by absorbing sun light it’s healthy for you, and other things like a donut are not, processed foods do nothing for us while things that are grown from sunlight always have at least 1 beneficial effect to us.
