| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
1) The bible states that God created the earth..., angels, fallen angels etc. These beings exist somewhere not on this earth, they are extraterrestrial by definition.
From a more physical point of view, nature (on and off this planet) seems to repeat successful patterns over and over again with slight variations. Not just one sun type star or pulsar, not just one spiral galaxy but a near infinite number. It is inconceivable that only one successful inteligent life form would evolve in the whole universe and on only one planet unless we are a freak accident of nature or, the creation story of the bible is correct.
There are two possibilities, one, a very advanced life form discovers us and attempts to make contact or two we discover faster and more efficient means of transport and find something through exploration.
Benefits would be a possible exchange of knowledge and or our growth as a species. A danger of course would be that they are hostile to us and have capabilities well beyond our means.
2) We have already transmitted a beacon, and our radio waves are already spreading out, this information speaks for itself.
3) Seti@home is a great example of what we could achieve when we try to co-operate on a project. A great number of scientific, medical, economic and social projects could be advanced much faster using this approach to distributed computing. |
