When you take into consideration that earth was formed 4.5 billion years ago and then there has been 600 million years of debris has formed and there has been steady [...]

Looking For Aliens?

Aliens anyone?

South-America Now the Leading Force Behind Search For Extraterrestrials (Without the Voodoo ofcourse!)

The construction of the world’s largest telescope in the northern region of Antofagasta could make Chile an international leader in astronomy research and provide a launch pad for developing other scientific disciplines. Cerro Amazons, a mountain rising 3,060 meters above sea level in the middle of the Atacama Desert, was chosen for the European Southern [...]

Extraterrestrial Intelligence – What might our response be to a signal from outer space?

Drake, who turned 80 in May, is still at it, directing the Carl Sagan Center for the Study of Life in the Universe at the nonprofit SETI Institute in Mountain View, Calif.

Extraterrestrials

Extraterrestrials Ok so I have been asked to give my thoughts on extraterrestrials…what are my thoughts on extraterrestrials. This is a huge subject and certainly hard to know where to start.

The Scientific rationale The expectation that Alien/Extraterrestrial intelligence exists derives from two facts and one assumption: (1) The universe is vast, with approximately 1011 galaxies (a total of about 1022 stars) within the reach of telescopes. This number is so large that even if the emergence of intelligence is improbable, such intelligence could still have [...]

Terrestrial & Extraterrestrial

One day the world will be greaetly different. We may blow ourselves up, the sun may burn out or morph into a red giant. We may starve ourselves to death with a 10-15,000,000,000 population or we may get wiped off the planet by a passing comet or take a direct hit from an asteroid. There [...]
