| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
1. I have become familiar with SETIa@home on my computer for many years and it seems to be a fixture. Having an Educational background; research is important for self development and for the development of the Human Species and the environment to which we live.
2. The choice is to research and develop or not and be ignorant, however this is not our nature, we are explorers hence the project.
3. Extraterrestrial life should exist, the question arises: Do they? 'If' there are intelligent life forms, how far technologically advanced are they? or are we the advanced life forms?
I believe we have already encountered extraterrestrial life forms. Can societies or even countries accept a dramatic change in mindset? The implications on belief or faith?
We as humans fight amonst ourselves violently...What hopes do we have of introducing Extraterrestrial life? Well! It may bring people all together as one race instead of many...to protect and represent our planets collective species.
There are always two sides to a coin - and there are always dangers of such extraterrestrial discovery - biological, chemical contamination,'Force-superiorority, power struggle' (battle of human traits)...
How do we represent ourselves to the Cosmos? Cautiously!
No beacons should be transmitted. If we are to find Extraterrestrial life we should be the ones to observe them..., no contact initially. Information and knowledge is what the human race is all about or so we have been told - that in itself provides other races with an idea of intelligence, superiority, power and also if need be fear.
We do not know what is out there and therefore we should be cautious.
4. Areas of research also vital and important, is that of our own planet, our only life source at present and yet it also constantly evolving. The more we learn of it's long term cycles, the better chances of managing changes and prevent extinction. |
