G'day,
I am in my forties and live in the suburbs of Perth Western Australia.
With regards to "the question" of sentient life "out there". I do not believe it is a question at all. There is more chance we will actually meet god than there is of us being the only sentient beings in this universe (or any other for that matter).
I am proud to be a part of SETI and while I am dubious that this is the way we will find proof of ETI's we have to be actively trying something.
I am hoping humanity will increase the resources used to move our peoples into space in the short term, such as Lunar and Martian colonies and especially robotic mining of the many resources "out there" to relieve the dreadful burdon we place on our lovely world. |

It is fantastic that SETI is!
It is, in my opinion, an imperative part of our journey of understanding to learn of other life, other sentient life in our local universe.I believe there is plenty of life out there but I feel sentient life probably needs a certain range of conditions that makes it's existance more specialised than life in general. There are probably around 10,000 or so sentient species in the Milky Way (a figure I have come up with based on approximate stars capable of having habitable planets in the way we understand habitable and then taking other variables into account, such as recent planet finds).
If you spread this figure around the Galaxy it means the chances of one being close to us is low however I still feel SETI's search is of great importance as it narrows our future searches further. WE WILL FIND AND MEET WITH ALIEN INTELLIGENCE ONE DAY! SETI could be our first step, and being part of this is a wonderful thing that we all should be proud of. |
