When you think about it, we really are most likely alone in the universe. In order for a planet to be habitable it needs to:

>Be in the habitable zone
>Needs to be a yellow star (red dwards will tidally lock planets while blue stars emit too much radiation)
>Needs to be rocky
>Needs to have the right mass. Too much it's gravity is too crushing and too little it will become airless.
>Needs to have liquid water but not too much to become a global ocean world
>Needs to have right kind of atmosphere
>Needs volcanic activity but not too much to create a Venus
>Needs plate tectonics
>Needs a large gas giant in the outer edges to protect from asteroids
>Needs to have a moderate axial tilt
And finally
>Needs a large planet to GRAZE (not fully crash into as that would create just a giant asteroid field) to create an oversized moon

I don't see basically almost any world in the universe to hit all of those boxes so we might just truly be alone. Either we got incredibly lucky or all of this is something created by some higher power.

none of this is a fact and another thing that fundamentally changed the understanding of this is obviously that obviously AI -that is non-biological intelligence/sentience- can exist, we even basically unlocked the building blocks. a bit more sophistication and we're there ourselves.

on the biological side we also discovered more life form types that can photosynthesize AND more non-photosynthetic methods to get energy in the last bunch of years

and so on. basically it all widens the options for not just life but eventual sentience/intelligence at or beyond our level rather than just "clusters of molecules that replicate somehow"

I don’t agree. I think it’s likelier that the conditions to make life are very uncommon, but more importantly, new. Consider how many elements needed to be formed through multiple iterations of star formation and nova occurrence for our rocky planet to have its current composition, let alone the life here.

It’s also a possibility that we’re first, but there will be others.
>>
>>539123158
The conditions for life as we know it to form on this planet are infinitely small. But the universe is also infinitely large, so chances are there are an uncountable number of planets just like ours.
This isn't even getting into what life could be like on other planets not like ours. Life is a tenacious thing that will persist in spite of all odds.

An orange dwarf would do nicely. It could start as a rocky planet in the habitable zone, drift outward to get covered in a giant ocean from iceball impacts then drift inwards and have its oceans mostly boiled away by intense star flares during the star's first billion years. Then the star calms down and remnants of the water form oceans (mostly boiled away by the star ). The plant life would be purple, red and black, and the climate mild from pole to pole. It could even have a moon like ours to keep the poles from shifting but maybe that doesn't matter if the climate is mild. Perhaps there's more or less land. It could be an archepelago world like One Piece to keep the population down.

Another option is an 'avatar moon' world close to a red dorf. But it would have to be far outside the radiation belts but close enough to be protected from flares, which may or may not be a thing. Maybe tidally locked to planet? Not sure didn't explore this scenario. The type K star scenario would have the planet orbit its star about 18 times in the span Earth orbits the sun 10 times.

>>
>>539122833
Every star is conjecture to have at least one planet (excluding anomalies like rogue stars). If there are say 400 billion stars then planets are at least near 1-1 correspondence with stars and most stars probably contain more than one planet. Now we are just one in many trillions of galaxies so we are talking an astronomical number like a sextillion planets at least in the observable universe alone. Even if life is extremely rare it's likely there are millions at least out there is not more (even under the assumption of rare intelligence). We are only "alone" because of distance. It takes us as of present 17,000+ years to traverse 4.2 light years or 25 trillion miles and the nearest life could be 1000 light years but we will never know.
>>
>>539122833
>alone in the universe
I wonder about it.
The fact that there is no gnostic perception of the galaxy apart from us on Earth means the rest of the galaxy has "infinite" time to develop life. Infinite or rather an undefined amount of time, which cycles back to, there is already life out there. It's a good application of the classic falling tree paradox, you see.

Because life there would evolve to see different frequencies it might even call plants 'green' when they were not actually green. Their word would fill all the niches our word 'green' does to us so it would seem more natural to just use it to describe some warmer shade Water would be azure as it would absorb near infrared. But that's not too distractiing because reileigh scattering makes water seem blue to us. But to them it would really BE blue.

It's even worse considering you need enough of the heavier elements like sulfur and phosphate on your planet so life can thrive.
Our solar system is not only among the first generation of systems to have a sufficient amounts, it is also among the first in this generation to even exist. This is due to the fact that the nebula which our sun formed is the result of a star explosion which in turn was one of the first to created these elements during its life cycle.
Planets in star systems that formed before simply didn't have enough heavier elements to support life.

There's probably lots of places that could be seeded with life that would never evolve life that would survive on its own. Why not seed mars with microbots powered by solar panels then have sapient bots 'eat them' for parts creating a whole ecosystem? Maybe silicon based life wouldn't evolve because of lack of solvents but why couldn't life that doesn't need solvents be seeded skipping the step of evolving life de-novo?

Scientists have not yet accomplished abiogenesis, ie the creation of life from inorganic compounds, in a laboratory. The assertion that 6 billion years, 500 million years, or any timeline is sufficient to bring inorganic compounds to be intelligent life is an absurdity. I was merely pointing out that we are often sold the observed diversity of organisms today had many billions of years to unfold is a massive lie. According to the fossil record, there was a much shorter timeline.
But then your side doesn't even have the starting point. How many years does it take random processes to produce life from non-life? If you have an answer, how do you justify it given the fact that despite numerous attempts at abiogenesis nobody has been able to do it?

There are countless planets in countless galaxies in massive groups and the observable universe is just a tiny section of the total universe.

My guess is that there are a few tiers of creature in the universe. We are these mortal beings, probably engineered as slaves for a more evolved immortal alien race. You would need to live for thousands of years, for sub light speed travel to work out for your species. Humans can't even really consider traveling between the stars except in wild sci fi's about generation ships or faster than light travel. But the FTL travel would belong to an even higher tier of creature that is capable of warp, and time travel and various other god tier feats.
>>
>>539122833
We're probably not alone, more likely is that there is an absolute limit to technology meaning that all life is doomed to remain mostly within the cradle that spawned it.

At best we'll eventually spy the echoes of some million years dead alien civilisation like ours and get to witness its descent into despair ad they realise there is no way further.

I believe this but only because it matches with the cosmogonic story of the Sumerian people.
The only "mistake " is that remnants from the planet "Theia" in this case (Nibiru in the cosmogony) survived and the crash messed up the planets orbit, thus making it an extra long elliptical orbit around the Sun. According to them, the Gods that live there made us in a lab or something, to be their slave labourers, and they come to Earth every 3.300 years, approximate cycle of their electrical orbit, and come and take our gold to aeriate in their asthenic atmosphere so they can trap in heat, helps them survive the next cycle/orbit.

your fucking retarded if you think thea was a graze...earths gravity quadrupled within the span of an hour once thea merged with earths core...it was such an energetic impact that the opposite side of earth from the impact raised thousands of feet and took 10-100 million years just to smooth out. as for the asteroid belt, there were a fucking shit ton of proto planets between mars and jupiter, those got shredded by other protoplanets or just shotgunned by multiple smaller impacts. the mass of the asteroid belt is no where even fucking close to that of earths or mars.
additionally, until 70ish million years ago the earth recieved daily close to 1.5million tons of shit from space. plate tectonics, continental drift, the square cube law in regards to giant fucking reptiles, it all points to the undisputable fact that earth has grown over its geologic lifetime which in turn increased its gravity. valleys/hills/mountains are essentially the equivalent of stretch marks and cellulite because, like a fat bitch, since earths volume keeps increasing, so too does cellulite/etc.

tldr: the earth has been growing for billion of years from millions of tons of space shit falling to it. earth is basically a fat whore


>Percentage Calculation
To find the mass of the asteroid belt (Mbelt) as a percentage of Mars's mass (MMars), we use the following formula:Percentage=(MbeltMMars)×100 Substituting the established values into the equation:Percentage=(2.39×10^21kg/6.4171×10^23kg)×100
Percentage≈0.003724×100Percentage≈0.372% thus, the total mass of the entire asteroid belt is approximately 0.37% of the total mass of Mars (or roughly 1/268the of the mass of mars).

It's entirely possible that life doesn't need to be all that similar to life on Earth. So it all these requirements are not a factor.
The universe is also so big it defies human comprehension. So even if life can only ever be similar to how it is here, there are almost infinity chances that it happens spontaneously if that is possible. If life can happen here then it can probably happen somewhere else.
If we were created or were transplanted here from some other reality or some crazy shit like that we could be alone though. Sure. That's not any more likely than the alternatives though. We don't know enough to determine that.

You would also need a supernova in the vicinity to seed your planet with minerals it needs for life. The supernova has to be strong enough to seed your planet with the minerals but not destroy the entire system. The other thing is that the rocky planet in the habitable zone has to have a significant quantity of water which seems rare based on the exoplanets we've discovered. The star has to be in a relatively calm area in the galaxy, you don't want your star near the center where there are stars whipping around at relativistic speeds.

Then again, who really knows all of the weird ways that life can form? You could have a life that uses nuclear reactions and quantum tunnelling instead of chemical reactions form on something like a neutron star. It's not impossible to have silicon based life instead of carbon based that could form on molten lava worlds. It's not impossible that silicon based life would have formed on Earth prior to Theia and was wiped out in the great impact.

Even if there are/were other life somewhere, it relies on both lifeforms existing, evolving and developing tech the during the same mote of time. we could miss eachother by a few thousand years and we'd never know either of us existed.
The odds of two lifeforms evolving and being capable of finding each other in the universe would be like hitting a human hair with a bullet (tech allowing) shot from europe to the usa in one shot. Not impossible but, the odds aren't good.

As you know, you failed to gain tenure at the University of Chicago. You're not highly regarded in the field. You're not a leading person in the field.

You have a serious problem with dark energy that's going to go right through having a problem with Lambda-CDM which eventually will be a problem with the Einstein field equations. Imagine a world where Elon Musk and Sam Altman continue to compete for better and better AIs.

The scariest part about our universe is just how powerless and ignorant man is. We don't even have comprehensive accounts of what happened during the earliest major civilizations. Our religions offer no proof or objective evidence, so even magical salvation isn't a solution to the problem.

Most of the universe is directly hostile to life, and the distances are so vast that it will take an absolute miracle of scientific breakthrough or engineering to ever make even nearby exploration viable. And without exploration we lack the data we simply lack the validation for many theories.

Life is just a form of matter. A complex one. Where the correct conditions exist matter spontaneously organises itself into life. That it is as much a change of state of matter as boiling water is.

Every time I hypothesise the alone in the universe question. It is far more likely that the micro of our own efforts in nature is the macro. There most certainly is other lifeforms in the universe who have absolutely zero reason to make us aware of them even if they have the ability.

Like where the fuck are all these humans trying to have a conversation with a badger? So why the fuck would advanced aliens be so enthusiastic to involve themselves with us out with passive stewardship? Drop an artifact here and there to push us along if they are so lonely.

I'd imagine if, then there would be some galactic federation that protects non space faring beings. Not allowed to touch new life. Let it do it's thing, once it's grown into species equivalent of an adult then get fucked in.

But it's like the conquering fuggin Warhammer shit? Not unless they are harvesting fuggin souls. Otherwise no benefit to announcing yourself to people completely unaware of your presence out with direct intervention.

When the spinning ball-Earth is finally exposed worldwide for the 400+ year deception it was, Earth's entire population will suddenly be faced with the reality that every government, every space agency, university, secret society, religious organization, mainstream and alternative media outlet have ALL been duplicitous in propping up a monstrous manipulation to fleece and control the masses. The resulting mass mental exodus away from the control system is exactly what humanity needs. Once the flat Earth truth gets out, these lying politicians, spokesmen, reporters and teachers suddenly change from being heralded voices of authority to being ridiculed, shunned and denounced as they deserve. Once the flat Earth truth gets out, these governments, universities, media outlets and other entangled organizations which have long been hard at work weaving this multi-generational ball-Earth myth, suddenly and completely lose all credibility. Once the truth of our flat Earth gets out, so does the truth of these few elite families/societies who have kept this most important and fundamental reality from us for these hundreds of years! Essentially, once the flat Earth truth gets out, so does every other important truth by proxy, because this "mother-of-all-conspiracies" holds under its umbrella literally ALL of the other conspiracies, and exposes them.

In order for us to be unique, something astronomically (using this word literally) rare must be both a necessary condition for forming intelligent life, and be in our history.

The moon forming was astronomically rare, and tidal mixing may have been a critical component of life on earth evolving.

The fermi observation (70+ years of hearing nothing) suggests that life is not present in our observable neighborhood. The longer this goes on, the more likely it is that it will continue, and we will be alone.

The brandenburg hypothesis, if true, does wreck this.

In theory, any element that can form long chains can be the basis for life. Right now we know of Carbon and Silicon that can do this. Carbon is better because it forms stronger bonds but Silicon might be more probably in really really hot worlds where Silicon Dioxide is in it's gaseous state. For example, the early earth prior to the Great Impact.

Very good point, the weird coincidences such as moon and sun appearing same size in the sky indicates that we were probably seeded by aliens or something, that it was influenced by some way by a higher life form.

Problem is we would never be able to know what planets in other star systems have moons that fit that criteria, it’s hard enough to discover exoplanets and so exo moons are 100% out of our technology to discover and then we’d have to try and do the math somehow to prove it.

No. If life formed in deep oceans warmed by geothermal activity, it is logical to assume any planet that has a hot core and deep water likely has developed microbial life, and still has it. If the microbial life exists, it is only a matter of time for it to develop into complex life. What is likely is that most planets have complex life but it's bound to the water which makes technological development practically impossible.

Silicon cannot form a chain of more than about 5. You can have silicone or some other form where there is -Si-O-Si- going on for a long time, but good luck forming genetic material with this.

Recently I read a scifi book called Pushing Ice that featured ayy ships that would loiter for millions of years until an intelligent race evolved, then catch their attention and whisk an exploratory crew off into the far future by traveling at lightspeed. The point was to bring together multiple species, since galaxies only tend to have one intelligent race at a time with large gulfs of time between spacefaring civilizations. The early-universe ayys were lonely so they set up a way for species to cohabitate in the far future.

Anyway it could be like that, where intelligent life only arises once or twice per galaxy and never at the same time. That'd explain the silence.

Based commander keen poster.
All this thread has shown is that no one knows for certain if we're alone or not, nor if we'll ever find out.
In order to get answers we're going to have to stop speculating and bickering pointlessly and fruitlessly with one another, and actually go fucking investigate.
Our satellites and telescopes are still predicated on our limited knowledge.
Our religions are also predicated on limited knowledge.
Our "AI" is built as well on limited derivative knowledge.
Thus our conclusions are derivative and limited, thus not representative of what's actually out there. It's all guessing and even an educated guess is still a guess.
Stop bitching like little faggots for once and pool energy into actually figuring out ways to get off this rock. I don't care if you think there's a firmament, an atmosphere, etc. none of the distinctions in nomenclature changes the reality we have to actually invade that space outside our own to truly know.
Right now our efforts have been so minimal and limited that we might as well have not made any at all.
I'm biased as I've been blessed to see things up close that are unbelievable, yet I still keep a grounded head knowing that others won't believe till they get a chance to see those things too and that won't happen unless humanity quits its waste-of-energy squabbling and properly seeks the stars.
If that means we have to snuff out the current academic tenures that greedily consume all the grant money for incessantly derivative math theories, then so be it. But something has to be done to create a sense of desire to seek and explore back into man.
Put mankind's destiny back into the hands of everyone, not just a few greedy hogs at the top who are clearly trying their hardest to keep us trapped here (if you haven't realized this yet, you're not paying enough attention, wake up.)
In essence stop being dopefish. Do more than swim swim eat, niggers.

also dont forget humans have only investigated/observed 0.000000001% of space.

As i said, no problem with them if they stay in their lane. Most humans do have a deep need for some sort of supernatural belief system to feel whole, and only eugenics may get rid of this.

Aliens dont gave to be inside our space, they could be so big that our observable universe is a size of their single hair.

I solved the Red-Dwarf Question. A Moon orbiting an Ice Giant in the Habitable Zone around a Red-Dwarf can have a day/night cycle on the side facing away from the Ice Giant.

moreover, that we even exist at all is evidence that life really is possible, if not likely. getting rid of the preconceived notion of our own supposed rarity is essential to giving the rest of the universe a fair shake.

our planet has gone fully extinct a number of times and yet we crawl back out of the slime every single time. theres no reason to think its impossible elsewhere when we have direct evidence that it happens (us).

if they stay in their lane and dont bother you then nobody will sign up for the shit deal they offer so they have to get aggressive and lie to you, attack you, scare you and play with all the emotions you have to get you to join their cult.
it also makes them angry that you dont believe their dumb shit.
yesterday I talked to the bulgarian christcuck shill and he was promoting circumcision but refused to answer if hes mutilated himself.
so you see they even promote self mutilation but dont even practice it themselves.
christcucks and other religions are basically the reasons why humans cant leave this earth to investigate further, all religions, not just christcucks know the answers out their prove their beliefs wrong.
so they gotta keep you dumb and scammed so you can be a good lil paypiggi.

>I don't see basically almost any world in the universe to hit all of those boxes so we might just truly be alone.

You don't see very many worlds in the universe period. We don't know jack shit about the majority of exoplanets out there, hell we haven't even mapped more than a handful of solar systems outside our own. At this point we just don't know.

It wasn't a "graze"
>The Moon is mostly made of Earth's crust
>LLVPs suggest Theia's core is beneath your feet right now
Consider the best way to terraform Mars:
>Dyson Swarm to alter Mercury's orbit so it crashes straight into Mars

Where does the idea that space is fake actually come from?

I dont subscribe to the idea that earth is billions of years old, I think its a lot younger than is claimed. like in the 1 million range.
also you should look at life from the view of non equilibrium thermodynamics.
basically matter organizes itself into more complexity to dissipate away energy more efficiently.
life is a dissipative structure but so is everything else like stars or storm.
