OT: Life Found on Distant Planet

[NinjaBro]

Cave drawings were made by primitive humans trying to express themselves and their surroundings creatively, not alien messages from another universe. Stop it!

That's not what he's saying at all, he put "cave paintings" in quotation marks. To more accurately capture the rizz of DelAbbot's position, one could say that there are observable physical markers from bygone eras in the world... physical markers that you'd require the tool of physics to see.

What tools of physics are you rizzing about? You mean like our eyeballs?

Cavs paintings were made by natural pigments like ochre, charcoal and gypsum binded together with animal fat, water and plant juice to make paint. You tell me a sophisticated alien civilization had the technological advances to travel to our solar system but had to resort to such primitive means to create art? Call me a skeptic, but I find that highly implausible...

No I think it's from the cosmic microwave background or whatever. Personally, if a microwave ain't got the rizz to fry up some hotpockets, I ain't dealin with it.

1. You should be a skeptic. 2. I think it can be they dumbed it down for the audience, like explaining where babies come from to little kids.

I will say this, this universe has a lot laws and rules that it follows. It seems very planned or manufactured, outside of dark matter, there are few random, unknown things. Not saying religion but I am saying a being could've designed it.

Is Xenomorph from the same extraterrestrial planet as Adam Silver? Clearly rigged.

We could get all excited about life on a planet. Then in a couple hundred years, when we have figured out warp speed, we get to that planet and find it is inhabited by dinosaurs.

Or worse, just algae.

This would actually vindicate a lot of scientific research *rizz-rizz*.

I took this Astronomy course called "Life on Other Worlds" at U of T about 15 years ago:

It was awesome, but one of the coolest things they mentioned is how scientists will study single-cellular organisms in "extreme" environments, such as extreme cold, extreme heat, etc, since conditions on other planets is likely to be much, much different than on Earth.

And life started on Earth through Panspermia

That is incredible. Strange dichotomy. It took the goldilocks universe 90 billion years to create the complexion of what we percieve as the simplest forms of life now.

We usually think of the advancement of single celled organism evolving into us as the "big" advancement. But in this framework....most of the work had already been achieved at the single celled organism stage.

Another way of saying it: going from single cell organism into human is nothing compared to the formation of the single celled organism. And it took billions of years of the most favorable conditions conceivable for it's formation.

I guess I always thought of simple organism --> human as being "the bulk" of evolution. But in this framework...that specific transition is actually a tiny stage at the end of a much broader timeline.

I had heard of life travelling between planets on comets in panspermia form or whatever. But I had never heard of this hypothetical stage early after the big bang where life could exist everywhere in space. That conditions we associate with atmospheric environments were actually everywhere.

The method of extrapolating (backwards) of genome complexity to measure history of evolution says it's 9 billion years from non-living to us. The history of the universe is estimated at 14 billion years old, so it took 2/3 of the history of the universe to develop intelligent life like ourselves.

Perhaps a significant part of that 9 billion years is simple cell organisms in cryogenic state after goldilock universe ended, and the temperature of the universe dropped. From that point forward, needed a biosphere planet to continue evolution.

Well, I hope their lottery aint as rigged.
