...its already seemed to work for the last 1000 or so years.

they should be able to get some sort of reward for what they've done to advance medicine in western culture.

that it has is good, but whats the garuantee it will be around in another 1000? and why not now, everywhere. so it doesnt get lost, so it can be improved, so we can learn more.

they dont need a reward. some of those tribes are disgusted at you if they give you a gift as a reciprocation for a gift they give you. they understand this to be your way of saying "i don't want to join you, so here is a gift to cancel out your gesture". when they give you a gift in the first place that is there way of saying, here, come join us, you are one of us now. they are inducting you into access of the communal property. they do this and often times the westerners will feel a bit guilty about getting a free weaved basket from these people who obviously spent a long time making it, so they will try to give them something in return.

of course they should be helped out, but not necessarily "rewarded", its not like its more important to do that than get the information they have available for more and more people. a "reward" could help to get new info out of them, but you have to be careful apply our cultural standards to them.

Rob, this assumes 'life as we know it" - could be a silicon based lifeform. Could be some sort we can't even imagine. I don't think we can really conceive higher dimensions.

However, the impliction to me of what you state is 1. its an hyper statistical improbably random situation or 2. it is a carefully controlled situation.

of coruse this assumes life as "we" know it. How are we supposed to find life we do not know to exist?
(yet?)

but you are right.
the implication of this is indded either that it is such a random luck of the draw as to preclude anything similar eer happening again, OR
that life as it has developed on Earth is the result of sentient involvement of some sort, whether that happened when we went from single cells to multi-cellular organisms, or when humans arose is all guesses.

just a small sampling of the checklist needed to have Earth be what it is today.

a stable star around which to revolve
a stable planetary system where gravitational perturbations do not distort the Earth's stable orbit
a planetary system far removed from the center of our galaxy, where supermassive black holes, and periodic supernovas and star formation bathe everything in highly intense radiation, which is deadly to life
Large giant planets to attract and " clean up" the debris within the solar system. This allows the earth to develope without constant asteroid collissions.
the perfect distance from the star, where the rays warm the planet but are not powerful enough to strip the planet of it's atmosphere.
A large and stable sattelite/moon rotating arund the earth at such a perfect rate and speed that it balances out any small perturbations in the Earth's rotation, creating stability and semi-stable weather patterns. Hell, the lunar tides may have been the catalyst for the first actual cell formation as the waves crashed on shores throughout the planet.
an atmosphere composed of mostly nitrogen, which keeps the sun's lethal radiation from destroying life.
liquid oceans of water, which are extremely unlikely. If the Earth's temperature ever dips a few degrees too low or the earth moves just a bit too far from the sun all water would be ice, and life could not flourish. If the temperature gets a few degrees too high or the planet's orbit is just a bit too close to the star, then all the liquid water would be vaporized, and if the atmosphere is gone then the water would do what it did on Mars, which is to turn to rust as it reacts with the soils.


These are just a very minute criteria for a planet to have life like ours. very sall. this does not evn go into life itself.

frankly, the odds are most favorable that the Earth is the single planet in our galaxy of billions of stars that is capable of supporting life for what amounts to more than 3 BILLION YEARS.

I would find it preposterous to assume that this nearly unfthomable sequence of events can unfold regularly in our galaxy.
If anything, eafch galaxy out there may have but one planet around but one star system that can harbor life as the Earth can, allowing it to florusih and to create ever more complex and intelligent creatures.

if this is the case then we humans are ALONE, or as alone as can possibly be.

travel between stars is ridiculous. travel between ends of the galaxy is nearly unfathomable. Now, travel between the unimaginable recesses of deep space betrween galaxies? Nigh impossible to imagine.

we could very well be alone, and therefore we are responsible for caring for and propagating the seeds of life. I feel humans mission is to spread life, even bacterial or microorganism life, to any place we can. we may very well be the FIRST advanced civilization in the entire Universe, all hocuspocus bullshit aside. that is a very real possibility

This is why I like you, Rob.

their ecosystem is sulfide based. the bacteria "eat" the sulfides, using them to get energy instead of sunlight, those bacteria are then eaten by worms, fish, crabs, and so on. the animals at the sea vents are all the same life as we, DNA, water based life. Until we actually find some organism that eats, grows, and reproduces without water as a means for the chemical reactions that form "life", then it is pointless to talk about life as we do not know it. (at least when it comes to postulating the existence of life on a galacitic, universal level)

it may be that there are lifeforms that are pure energy, or that are indeed crystalline. Howveer, it is also just as likely that everything is alive in some sense (hylozoism) , since life is energy and change is the only constant in the universe.

I don't believe that the speed of light is the max possible speed.
I've never read or heard any reasonnable arguments in favor of that scientific law.
Besides, if it's true, e=mc^2 makes no sense. You have to choose one or the other.

that is very true.
In our galaxy, the furthest stars from us are about 100,000 light years away. each light year is roughly ten TRILLION kilometers. sick distance.


I have always maintained that it is equally plausible that the "aliens" and "UFO's" people see and have sen through history are humans from the far far future travelng back in timeto harvest genetic material needed in the distant future.

this makes no sense.

light/energy is massless, and massless things can go the fastest. The speed of any massive object, as it increases, also increases the mass of the object. This has been shown conclusively in experiment after experiment.
that is why the speed of light is seen as a maximum, for thereis nothing with less mass than energy which has NO MASS.

Suppose that a rocket with a huge tank is sent into space.
As the combustible is thrown away, the speed of the rocket increases.
So what happen when it reaches the speed of light?
The matter can't be thrown away from the ship?
Or maybe it can, but it has no effect on the speed of the ship?

the rocket will never reach lightspeed, or even close.
the faster something goes the more massive it becomes. the more massive it becomes the harder it is to increase the velocity of that massive object ever higher. way before reaching light speed, the energy needed to accelerate the object will be more than is available by any means. it would esswentially take infinite energy to get an object with any mass (even a proton) to go light speed.

hell, you have seen how much energy is used to just send a beam of protons in a particle accellerator at 3/4 the speed of light! Enough to power small cities! and that is just the mass of a few particles!

I've never read or heard any reasonnable arguments in favor of that scientific law.
Besides, if it's true, e=mc^2 makes no sense. You have to choose one or the other.
