Out of Pod Experience

I'd be more worried about the exposure to gamma radiaton, wich is known to mutate Human DNA.....Fun fact, and astronaut doing a 6 hour space walk absorbs more gamma radiation than a human on the surface of the earth does in 6 months, despite having that heavy protective suit.

It's why astronauts are more likely to get cancer than anyone else.....A risk that comes from being an astronaut unfortunately.


The solar flare itself wouldn't burn anyone as the distance of the earth from the sun is too great, but you'd see some kickass auroras around the poles of the planet that's for sure....Knocking out the power on earth globally would be a huge blow as we get more dependent on it as the years pass.

Ready the diseased blankets.

Well apart from the EMP that the solar flare generates wich fries all the electronics if they're on at the time, there's a large increase on the UVB wich is usually filtered by the ozone layer, wich wich is seriously bad for your eyesight and if you stay outside longer than usual, causes sunburns and the increased chance of skin cancer, so sun glasses and being completely covered up would be helpfull to say the least.

But it's more than one star at a time, but many, which was my rebuttal. And really it doesn't give any conclusive evidence regarding finding aliens by the wobble or composition of a star. Only a dyson sphere would be obvious, and more detectable than the need to measure wobbles for satellites.

So whenever I hear media outlet A or B saying another planet found could there be life?, I see it as humorous reaching as we could never know. It's not really the point of why Kepler is there, and would be a huge waste if it were there for that as it could never deliver. However the composition of the universe has importance, but finding alien artifacts which is long long over due (so less probable), well just hasn't happened and would be a waste if that was the point of the satellite orbiting the sun. It's there for understanding the composition of the verse/universe, which is also why I bring up digital vs. analog (regarding the fabric of existence) as that is part of the equation or the search in general. Now if this were a SETI thread, I probably wouldn't even bother posting, not as if anyone else would be either heh.

well, just answering your previous comment, putting it as religions would be unable to handle finding ET life, which is bogus and I've heard many media outlets claim that, which is just shallow and uninformed, and will be said by them again and again nontheless.

Beyond that, berkas or whatever, it's really another issue you have there, doesn't fit the topic so I'm not commenting. As for Catholics, I'm speaking of today, and over recent past centuries, their pretty fixated on searching the stars, for ET too. As for their errors, they weren't the only christian gig in town at the time, many forget, as Eastern Orthodox/Orthodox did their own thing and still exist, as well of many other forms of Christianity branching out from that especially in the West. But science has generally made huge errors no matter who was the dominating power in any given region. I even see such religious fervor and practices by those that claim no religion, more or less erecting their own temples of worship. Humans have a natural tendency to follow a God or gods, and it is no less for those that say they have no god/s yet center their lives fervently around something which fills that natural tendency; they make their own gods.

And you say science needs verifiable proof, and in that I agree, which is my problem lol because I don't see that happening in most of scientific academia as often theory is good enough for them, enough to ruin lives of other people on their alter of sacrifices.

Hundreds of people from within the US military and government have gone on record that we are being visited by other races and a cover-up is in effect. High ranking people from other governments have also gone on record. Every kind of person in any position where they would be privy to such knowledge has said as much. I can only assume you just haven't given it serious consideration or study.

There's a thing called a 'consensus trance' you might find interesting. Basically it means for some people reality is defined by what everyone around them believes, and not what they have decided on their own. So if the TV and everyone they know says something isn't real, they just go with that. Only changing their mind when the media and everyone else around them does too.

Yes I know of consensus trance and mass delusions etc. The Phoenix lights and the common mass sightings in Mexico etc. I'm actually well studied in this among other subjects. But the fact remains that there is no conclusive evidence that these are extraterrestrial objects, but a guess on the part of those involved in such sightings.

Even if a CNN news team ran out to meet them, got an exclusive interview with "Aliens", who is to say they are not lying? Who is to say they are not imposters? And if you climb aboard their ship, who is to say you are not on the menu? Who is to say that you are not the main course?

But seriously, it still remains unidentified. That U doesn't stand for Unreal, just unidentified. I mean just like my ramblings regarding the digital universe, this makes it even more likely so - that there is life beyond just humanity, and even a greater possibility of such things as time travel; as digital doesn't require time to be a fixed point or overwhelming mechanic to the structure of the verse. Even gives rise to interdimensional travel, and civilizations existing on other planes. My personal thoughts are that there are beings beyond our present reach, but I just don't adhere to the narrow view proposed by some people, often mainstream and purely speculative, with political and/or monetary investments in such ideals.

The Fermi Paradox only really says that life is less probable, not as populas as many lead to believe. Either non-existent, at least as far as our verse is concerned (it's deadly haywire out there), or so uncommon that such life could be just too far out of reach to ever encounter.

You stated earlier that you don't see it applied in most scientic academia as often theory is good enough for them......The example i linked proves otherwise...


Now as for practical applications of said discoveries, that's quite true, but keep in mind that for the above example, it required the construction of the LHC at a cost of over 20 billion to discover this problem, so having practical applications sometimes isn't possible to the enourmous cost associated with it....Maybe one day it'll be possible, but not now.

Grants are only given if the need is there to dig even deeper if there's still aspects not fully understood, and as of right now there's tons of them still not fully understood like the muon particle that travelled faster than light wich is something einstein stated was impossible, but sooner or later and well into the future( centuries if not milenia), we'll eventually get to a point where we've either got it all figured out or our civilization blew itself up in the process.


Something wich i believe has happended to other civilizations out there for sure, as it's the biggest step of all is going from a type 1 civilization( harnessing all the available power of the earth) to a type 2 civilization( using all the power available in the solar system( where the dison sphere example kicks in to harnes it all)....Type 3 is not even worth talking about as it harneses all the power within a galaxy...Think Q in star trek and doing anything he wants.


Right now we're using roughly 70% of all the power the earth is producing, so the clock is ticking...

I'm lucky enough to have experienced something which removed all doubt for me, and caused me to research the subject for decades. If i just had to go on the word of others i'd be unsure, too.

But i'm thinking of making a thread at some point in the future about the subject, where i'll try to provide some evidence you and others may have missed. So consider this discussion paused indefinitely.

Now that we're starting to discover planets that have a lot of caracteristics that are very similar to earth, and where the odds of developed life are far higher, i don't think it's a matter of if there's life out there but rather how intelligent is it, and of course us developing tech that allows us to travel there, assuming they don't do it first of course.
