It should be about life in our solar system and not light years away.

You have GOT to be a scientist. I got a headache trying to figure out just what the hell you were saying.

Richard Lawn has posted a new SETI Perspectives entitled "Is ET in Our Solar System?"


aka The Missing Link :)


yeah
I thought there is a difference between ET and ETI and SETI
but what do I know, having watched a famous movie . . . hearing ET brings up that ETI in my head
so I have to sort that out over and over again
ET more likely
ETI less likely within the ET category

Hi Chris,
the issue is not ET "in space" rather "in our solar system".

totally with ya there, but even if first contact had already been made with our planet, do you really think the governments of the world would disclose that fact to the population ?

"IF" first contact has already been made, i honestly doubt the governments would share that fact. it would result in religious hysteria and completely turn the world upside down lol

What about these supposed UFO's being sighted in the US and rest of the world, and then the news comes out about this "NEW" TR-3B Anti-Gravity Aircraft secretly developed, yet is so old that the creators have only just acknowledged its existance because they have the MKII lol probably...

So We have Anti-Gravity Technology Do We ? lol

Tech reverse engineered from crashed UFO's or is it that first contact has already been made ?

My mind races at these conundrums and things like the media is easily controlled by the powerful i reckon, so one cant really believe everything in the news/social circles....

Still...

i reckon by the time Elon Musk lands on Mars, we probably will encounter (hopefully, lol) an Extra-Terrestrial being..

Maybe we are too young a species that we havent even mastered a way to get out our own solar system and whom/what-ever is flying around out there in our galaxy maybe have rules not to interfere with species too young or havent invented the warp drive yet (sorry had to lol S.T ref there lol)

Some more food for thought :)
Yet i have so much more lol haha

NAILED IT :)

One of my most favourite and practically a go-to debate.

Look what we're doing to ourselves down on our pretty blue planet - Do you really think a Space-Faring being in our solar system would want to visit ?

So many injustices worldwide, and the acquisition of wealth as the driving force being the worlds only way to move forward, whether it be just to keep one's head above water or for simply gaining more and more wealth...

Whatever the case is, this attainment of revenue is the only thing that runs the world, probably another S.T ref here, but if that way of thinking was suddenly turned upside-down and instead the world would KNIT-TOGETHER for the BETTERMENT of one-another, this pretty little blue planet would advance at a much higher speed i reckon.. thats just my own thought on it though...

This is where i'd rather ET DID come to our planet looking for trouble with their advanced tech and weaponary....

Sad and bleak to say, but it'd be the only way for the damn world to Come together and abolish racism, cast-systems, rich/poor favouritism etc etc...

Uniting to fight a common enemy who wants to, well, ya'll seen enough movies to know how this sentence ends lol

Arthur C. Clarke supposedly said that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Could it perhaps not be distinguishable at all? If so, who knows if ET is indeed everywhere and we simply lack the means of detecting it.

But I suspect if ET were in our solar system we would detect it. After all they have to communicate, travel, move, and so forth, which one would think would create tell tale signs differentiating it from naturally occurring phenomena/signals.

Unless they were Klingons using cloaking devices? :)

If ET knows about us Humans maybe there wise and and saying better leave them alone, as this planet seems to them to always be at war with each other, if I was ET I,d say best to leave well alone. It is a mystery if there are other civilisations out there, maybe we are the only ones, it doesn't mean because of the vastness of space that its certain that ET exists.

ET in "Our Solar System" still looks to me more like this: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/01/200122100548.htm

just finding some microbe would be exciting . . .
