Given the present age of the universe, if interstellar travel were possible, it would've happened already, probably a billion years ago, meaning that galactic colonization, even at sublight speeds, would be so nearly complete that we would've noticed it from a distance.

The more likely scenario is that either sentient life isn't an evolutionary advantage, extinction events are very common, or that interstellar travel is simply impossible for reasons not yet apparent to us.

In order to travel the stars in a reasonable span of time, you'll need to be able to reach relativistic velocities.

It's a scenario where the aliens have the high ground, and the capability to literally destroy the surface of the planet just by launching spaceships at it.

A 100 metric ton mass traveling at 50% lightspeed would impact with a force equivalent to 245,000 megatons of TNT. That's ~ 100x more energy than the entire world's nuclear arsenals combined. It would likely punch straight through the crust and into the mantle and destroy at least a state/province/country sized area and massively devastate an entire continent.

And there would be literally nothing that could be done to stop it. If you fire an impactor at it and somehow break it into pieces, you just get relativistic shrapnel scattered over an even wider area.

And what could humanity do back? We have no means of reaching their homeworld; we'd utterly be at their mercy, stuck at the bottom of a gravity well we can barely crawl out of.

It really doesn't matter

You're talking about increasing the lethal radius of a nuke from 2km's to 3km's.

Eh from what I understand space warfare would probably use missiles with conventional explosives, rail guns, robotics, and possibly directed energy weapons. Energy weapons would only come into play simply because of distances involved and the speed at which they travel. So it wouldn't be all close quarters like you see in movies and such.

I'm guessing that wouldnt be possible due to our different brain frequencies. That sounds like just too much fiction bro

FTL is impossible, but there's mathematical means to travel the vastness of space in very short periods of time, it just requires nearly sun-level energy sources.

>>69542248
>missiles with conventional explosives, rail guns, robotics, and possibly directed energy weapons
I don't see the point of not throwing in some nuclear warheads if you are shooting missiles already

But yes, it'll most likely be railguns and energy weapons due to the range alone. Both also use only need large amounts of energy to operate, railgun ammo doesn't take up much space and is cheap

It's not impossible at all, it's just impractical from an economic standpoint. That's probably why nobody, assuming there IS anybody, has ever done it.

It would be tremendously expensive to, say, colonize another star. However there would be absolutely no return on investment for doing such. The home star gets nothing out of it at all.

So there is no reason to do it.

On top of that, a solar system like ours could support a huge population for another few billion years. Even after the Earth is rendered uninhabitable by the sun aging we'd still be able to survive in the outer solar system.

there is no other way of controlling our existence as species and lifetime unless we become colonial space travelers , yesterday we were apes taking energy from dead animals tomorrow we take energy from the stars

>Biosphere 2 was only used twice for its original intended purposes as a closed-system experiment: once from 1991 to 1993, and the second time from March to September 1994.

So an experiment failed over 20 years ago, therefore, it can't be done? And keep in mind that they were trying to have a closed system while getting hit by obscene amounts of sunlight coming in to supply a large garden-style arrangement of biomes of organisms meant to simulate different types of places on earth. They had to use gigantic air conditioners on the thing the whole time or they'd have all died of heat. Hardly a good analogue to a near-future greehouse set-up mainly for making food, we can recycle oxygen using mechanical systems way more efficiently that using plants.
And why are you so fixated on time dilation? Time dilation isn't even relevant unless a craft is going absurdly fast.

Reptilians have taken over and infiltrated every level of human society (including our governments) for many thousands of years. The reason they've gotten away with it for so long is that they can assume a human form. They don't come from another physical planet per se, but from another band of frequency that vibrates very closely to this one (which enables them to flit back and forth from their dimension to ours).
Credo Mutwa called this frequency band/dimension 'the heaven between heavens'.
Their 'food' is our fear, our hatred, our suffering, our anger and our despair.
Shifting into a human form and entering into our dimension takes a lot of energy for them, so they can't stay here for long unless they possess the body of a human who is in vibrational resonance with them.
These humans are of a hybrid nature, their DNA is different from ours in that it is compatible with the reptilians (which is what allows them to be possessed). These humans are your kings, your banking dynasties (like the Rothschilds, for example), your presidents, etc. They have certain traits in common, like a lack of empathy, an obsession with being in control, lack of imagination, etc.
Oh, and they love lolis and gold.
These reptiles are pedophiles.

They might want to study us as anthropologists or biologists. Sort of like Jane Goodall. Sure it's humanizing them to suppose such a thing, but if we're curious and it led to greater intelligence, there is no reason that some intelligent species in the galaxy might be curious also.

Intelligence is just one evolutionary adaptation out of many. It is no more inevitable a thing than the development of an armored shell is. Even if life is abundant, and there is no reason to suppose it would be, there is still absolutely no reason to suspect that intelligent life will arise. The Drake Equation simply took WAY too many liberties and WAY too optimistic a view of life, evolution, and other factors.

We have exactly zero data on xenobiology, and still have very little information on our own origins. Speculation can be made on the available evidence found on our own planet, but one cannot make any predictions as to whether or not the formation self-replicating organic molecules are an inevitability even if a prime environment for their formation exists.

There is absolutely no data whatsoever. To speculate on the chances for life elsewhere is frankly ludicrous. It is fine to say that the chances of it existing somewhere else are reasonably high, but anything beyond that conjecture just has to take too many liberties.

>but scientists agree that earth is a hostile planet.

Hostile only insofar as it is not completely safe, but Earth is literally the perfect world in the most rare of circumstances:

>1. Right rate of rotation to allow for even distribution of temperatures.

>2. Geological mechanisms in place to remove excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Think about how extraordinary this one point is. Venus is almost exactly the same size as Earth, and yet, it seems not to have to tectonic activity. This is why there is a runaway greenhouse effect. This is further supported by the fact that nearly the entire surface of the planet is very very young, which indicates a massive volcanic resurfacing of much of the planet. This would have had the effect of shutting down any tectonic activity.

>3. A powerful magnetic field, which even Venus does not have (see above for more details. Resurfacing may have shut down the magnetic dynamo),

>4. A large moon in relation to the size of the planet that shields the Earth from impacts while also stabilizing the axis of the planet (Mars literally flips over sometimes).

>5. Is the perfect distance from its host star.

>6. Orbits the perfect type of stable main-sequence star.

>7. Has a massive gas giant (Jupiter) that helps keep the inner Solar System free of potential impactors.

>8. The Solar System exists in a perfect galactic position free of supernova or other destructive celestial events.

I could go on and on, but you get the point. Earth is a one-in-a-trillion planet. However, even then, there is still absolutely no reason why life HAD to develop, just because it did. The processes here that gave rise to self-replicating organic material by no means have to necessarily always lead to the creation of self-replicating organic material. It could just have been a fluke event during a random collision of proteins that is rare in itself.

It is arrogant presumption to say that these molecules MUST occur everywhere.

However, no, there are no other planets that we have seen which are like Earth. Merely, only other worlds with a handful of similarities have been discovered, not exact parallels. And again, there is no reason why life HAS to arise on these bodies.

On the otherhand if a planet has trees then it will have humanoid looking creatures at some point in its time, the some theropods may have eventually mutated their tails away and become fully erect and have their forelimbs become tool using rather than claws becoming the very first intelligent species but that meteor happened. On a lower gravity planet quadrupeds would become bipedal much faster meaning more intelligent life is possible on planets with lower gravity like Mars although they would be fragile compared to us. Depending on how the producer class organism is a lifeform on another planet could live off half of what we eat just because the energy of the plant part of its ecosystem is much greater than the ones in our plants.

All I do know is that life on planet with sunlight will eventually become photosyntetic meaning plant like life would be the most common things in the universe.

There are civilizations out there right now inferior to us, without a doubt. That being said, time is a really fucked up concept when it comes to space. What is now? Time differs depending on speed and gravity. Aliens scoping us out from far away just see primitive earth depending on how far away they are from us. If they decide to come here, assuming they are travelling at the speed of light, it will take thousands to millions of years before they even get to us. They could have decided to leave thousands of a years ago for this planet and we wouldn't even know it, they could show up and what would feel like thousands of years to us would only feel like a few hundred to less for them. By the time they get here they might not even expect us to be here.

That is how crazy and out of whack it is thinking about space and time. Unless an Alien species can figure out a way to bend space and travel through it, there is no chance of them even giving a fuck about this planet. Even if they did find this rock with whatever form of telescopes they use, it would just be another possible habitable planet to them out of literally thousands.

We look into space and see earth like planets as they were thousands to millions of years ago, we have no idea how they are now. Space is so fucking huge that the chances of a species evolving the same exact way we did is possible. There could have been another Earth, with life forms just like us, that lived out their entire species life span until extinction and we wouldn't even know about it. Maybe the life that evolved that came from the rock that hit our planet has a strong link to life elsewhere.

So many fucking questions. If humanity is around and does advance, we might even father our own species some point down the line, or hell, leave a self replicating organic molecule by accident on a planet capable of life and millions of years later a species descends from it. Maybe that is what happened to life on this planet.

Unless the alien lifeforms are synthetic, "post-singularity" transhumans, or have long since implemented either a strict species-wide caste system or eugenics, they very likely would be familiar with the same issues humanity has with wide disparities in degree of civilization/savagery among the people of their species.

Tall plants, or even plants themselves, are not an evolutionary inevitability.

>then it will have humanoid looking creatures at some point in its time

Why will it have them? You are taking liberties and engaging in baseless speculation. You also act as if the humanoid form is some sort of evolutionary apex, when it isn't. Much of the life on Earth is NOT of humanoid design.

>the some theropods may have eventually mutated their tails away and become fully erect and have their forelimbs become tool using rather than claws becoming the very first intelligent species but that meteor happened.

Bullshit. These creatures had a MUCH longer period of time(many tens of millions of years) in which they could have transitioned from made these transitions from semi-bipedal herbivores with dexterous digits to intelligent tool-using bipedal ones, only they never made that evolutionary leap. Humanity, on the other hand, made this leap in under ten million years.

You are placing bipedal locomotion and intelligence on a pedestal, while also treating these things as an evolutionary inevitability. The truth is that these things are nothing other than random adaptations in response to certain selective pressures. Even then, these changes occurred in only ONE branch of the primate family in the same area where other primate species were under the SAME SELECTIVE PRESSURES, and yet, none of them became bipedal tool users. What's more, almost every variant of that one branch of those tool-using bipedalers went extinct, save one.

>On a lower gravity planet quadrupeds would become bipedal much faster meaning

Why would any intelligent life have to be bipedal? Dolphins have brains larger than humans and they have NO pedals. This is indicative that intelligence could, at least potentially (dolphins are smart, but not "intelligent" as we would define it with human level sapience) arise in marine life.

The thing is, in order for civilization to develop, you basically need an opposable thumb.

You need the ability to use tools and write things down.

This means having at least 4 limbs. Being bipedal isn't necessary, but it frees up two hands for the brain to work with.

Dolphins will never develop the ability to build a civilization because they lack the anatomy to make it feasible.

The humanoid shape is nothing more than a slightly mutated variant of the primate skeleton meaning an arboreal creature can one day become a bipedal ground walking creature and due to the way tree branchs are hands are the best forelimbs to navigate through them. So trees means eventual intelligence anon.
>Bullshit. These creatures had a MUCH longer period of time(many tens of millions of years) in which they could have transitioned from made these transitions from semi-bipedal herbivores with dexterous digits to intelligent tool-using bipedal ones, only they never made that evolutionary leap.
The dinos were diapsids they were stupid fucks compared to synapsids like us and lacked warm bloodedness that is the key to higher intelligence because of a constantly fueled brain, that is why the birds are smart while the current reptiles are fucking retards. However it may have been possible for the diapsids to become warm blooded as an adaptation to the cooling earth.
> Even then, these changes occurred in only ONE branch of the primate family in the same area where other primate species were under the SAME SELECTIVE PRESSURES
All primates have the skeletal structure to stand up bipedally but their legs needs to be longer to walk like humans. Primates only became bipeds when they started walking on the african savannah which made tree locomotion useless.
>Why would any intelligent life have to be bipedal?
Its the most energy efficient land based physiology for intelligent life.
>Dolphins have brains larger than humans and they have NO pedals
They are absolute proof that developing intelligence in the water is pointless. I know dolphins are smart perhaps even smarter than us since their heightened brains predate our ape ancestors, and orcas can mindfuck humans but these creatures are stuck in the water and can really manifest their intelligence into the environment because they have no tool using limbs.

Continuing my post here: >>69552925

How do you know that photosynthetic life is inevitable? Why is this so? Where is your research? How any extraterrestrial worlds did you survey to collect this information? What percentage had plant life, and which had none? What was your sample size? What control factors did you use in your survey an its following analysis?

The first life on Earth was not photosynthetic, and much of it today is still not so. Photosynthetic life is just another adaptation, it is not a inevitable one.

Why does everyone lapse into the "inevitable" method of theorizing?

>This will arise!

>This will certainly come about given enough time!

You can't possibly know this. The best things you CAN point to are cases of convergent evolution such as the independent development of power flight in birds and insects, or the independent development of complex eyes in different creatures. While you can use these things to show that certain traits are favored by evolution, these things do not grant license to say that such developments are INEVITABLE.

Plants get along just fine without wings or eyes, and so do fungi.

An opposable digit is handy, but not required. Why would not a form of tentacle suffice in place of a hand? Your argument is specious.

>Dolphins will never develop the ability to build a civilization because they lack the anatomy to make it feasible.

Birds lack the anatomy also, and yet, they are capable of complex tool usage with much smaller brains. Do your research on ravens.

There is no correlation between the existence of trees and the inevitability of intelligence. Again, human ancestors and other primates inhabited the same continent and lives under the same conditions. Only one developed intelligence and bipedal locomotion.

There is still no evolutionary requirement for intelligence to arise.

>lacked warm bloodedness

We do not know that, yet, and may never.

>All primates have the skeletal structure to stand up bipedally but their legs needs to be longer to walk like humans.

Bears have the ability to stand and walk in two legs also. That is not an argument of inevitability.

Your are positing a point to evolution.

Let me correct that. There is no point to evolution. Evolution is the response of species to the pressures placed upon them by their environment, all of which occur because of random genetic mutations that confer certain advantages.

We're talking about evolution here. You need a mechanism to evolve the capability to do these things.

Without having the free hands, there's not much chance of the incremental increase in mental capacity providing any evolutionary advantage.

>Birds lack the anatomy also, and yet, they are capable of complex tool usage with much smaller brains.

Birds are never going to start a civilization.

>Octopi are capable of complex dexterous manipulation, and they have eight limbs.
I said AT LEAST 4.

not 3 because it's asymmetrical.

We're talking about liklihoods. Obviously we can genetically engineer a being that violates these things... but for it to evolve naturally there needs to be a mechanism.

Structures that don't lend themselves to that kind of mental evolution aren't likely to result in it.

God Damn, I knew that islandniggers were stupid, and backwards as shit, but for fuck's sake look on the web to build your case on synapsids. There are many therapods which are surmised to be endothermic and possessing fair brain-to-body ratios, on par with modern ravens.
