| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I know this will make me sound like a 'Wacko' although Im a perfectly stable professional person, I became interested in ETI when I had a 'Close Encounter' at the age of 11. Basically myself and a friend ended up standing 10 ft below a UFO.
So since then Ive had to deal with sceptics laughing at one of the most bizarre experiences you could have as a child so maybe with SETI we can move on to the next stage and prove them wrong.
So in my mind they are definitely out there. The dangers and benefits are huge on both sides. Whatever species I had a close one with appear to have been friendly, I dont believe Ive suffered side effects. Therefore benefits of possible alliance, trade, better health, possible reduction of poverty, world starvation stopped etc as presumably any intelligence which can manage interstellar travel must be able to utilise resources far more efficiently than we do at present, but on the flipside other species may follow a more 'Human' trait of aggression, fear of the unknown(us for them, possibly) war, Im sure both sides of the argument have been covered in every other SCI FI Flick |
