Extraterrestrials

[Brian37]

1. There never was any other life in the Universe.
2. There never will be any other life in the Universe.
3. There was life elsewhere in the Universe, but not now.
4. There will be life elsewhere in the Universe, but not now.
5. There is/was/will be life elsewhere in the Universe, but we'll never meet it.
5a. Because they won't find us.
5b. Because they will find us, but won't interact with us.
6. There is/will be life elsewhere in the Universe, and we'll meet it.
6a. Because they will want to come here.
6b. Because they will stumble upon us.
6c. Because we will stumble upon them.

Okay, which ones did I miss. :lowcoffee:

Huh?

I bet before long scientist will prove that microbial life can exist and survive on other planets. Knowing the shear size of the universe, it should not surprise anyone if we find this to be the case elsewhere, where water exists even on the other planets and or moons in our solar system.

What I object to isn't the idea that life exists elsewhere. What I object to is conspiracy crap, not real science.

Wave functions build up to particles, particles make up atoms, atoms make up matter, and you CANNOT skip that buildup to become macro. Once matter is macro, it will be subject to the limitations of motion in a macro state.

I only see QM explaining things on paper. I see it helping us improve communication, and maybe increase speed a little. But I do not see a day where we can shrink an entire human, break down every atom to the wave function, keep track of the spin and momentum of every particle in that atom, in our bodies, copy it, and or move it, and reconstitute it elsewhere. I do not see life anywhere being able to bend space and time to move the universe while we stay still. I only see QM being able to improve technology, and explain the universe in natural terms. 



I think all life out there is still stuck with the macro state we are.
