FabSwingers.com forum: Aliens ?

Do they exist ? What form would they take ? Why would they be interested in humans ? If they could visit us you'd imagine their tech and intelligence to be far beyond ours.

If the difference in dna between humans and certain animals is quite small yet there are huge variations in the metrics we use for intelligence it's quite possible aliens could look at humans and have no interest in interacting .

I haven't been convined aliens do exist but given the size of the universe I'd find it strange if only earth had life.

Well im sure you have been probed enough so what do you think we might be the aliens I guess at least with this thread it has some kind of weight to it compared to Jesus

Curveball, imagine we are the aliens and we are light years ahead of others. Yea I think there hasto he something else out there somewhere in the whole wide galaxies, or so I'm led to believe by how big scientists and far more intelligent people than myself say. But life elsewhere could be equivalent to a worm or something but still life. And we are the ones sending spaceships and satellites everywhere

Doubt it myself, but makes a change from us being the lesser species and being beamed up and anal probed like in movies and stuff. To me far more shit going on on earth without worrying about what's elsewhere as fascinating as it may be.

If anyone out there is interested in this topic check out Richard Dolan

In a rabbit hole full of quacks and New Age nuts he is the real deal...

When he speculates he does so from a reasoned perspective and doesn't make wild claims but

He reckons that govs have been in contact/or have retrieved alien tech... look at his After Disclosure stuff on Youtube and go from there

Also Bob Lazar and Commander David Fraver's interviews on the Joe Rogan Experience are eye opening too - both relatively recent

Some consensus that after humans started detonating nukes that Alien activity (sightings, visits, interference with nuclear facilities, etc) spiked

Mad shit altogether

BTW I'm defo on board the believing train!!

Though there is a load of bollox out there too

Yeah he's been telling the same story for 30ish years and been ridiculed and hasn't deviated if that says anything

Also proof that his records for working in a specific facility that had the tech were wiped has to say something

If anyone on Fab is mates with the Ets they need to hit them up for a covid cure

Ill throw a few favours the aliens way

The universe is endless with more galaxies than we will ever know about and planets, be nieve to think ours is the only planet in the universe capable of supporting life but with 1000 of light years between us nobody would live long enough to find out even if we had the capabilities to travel that far.....but do they? That is the question lol

Interesting bit of trivia. Back in the 40s Eamon de Valera was a fan of Erwin Schrodinger, and set up the Dublin Institute of Advanced Studies, specifically as a place that Schrodinger could relocate to, to escape Nazi Germany.

Without a lab to study Quantum Theory he briefly turned to investigating the origins of life, and gave the series of "What is Life" lectures at Trinity College, where he hypothesized that the key to life, must take the form aperiodic crystals which contain strings of molecules that encode the genetic blueprints for life.

These lectures inspired Watson and Crick to use new crystolography techniques to look at the cell and lo and behold, discovered DNA. So de Valera was actually the catalyst that led to us discovering DNA, and the whole branch of genetics.

But anyway, the basic ingredients required to build the machinery of life are among the most abundant atoms in the universe. Water and carbon is EVERYWHERE, and it would be pretty naive to think that life hadnt emerges elsewhere.

I am not alone. I once floated that idea, albeit I had not been in a sober condition for a good 12 hours and I was ridiculed so much that even I started laughing at myself.

The chances of there being absolutely no life outside of earth has to be miniscule but as you say it could be worm, a flea or something we would consider insignificant on earth but life of some description I believe

Given that there are a massive number of other planets that are a similar distance from a sun, and likely have atmosphere and liquid water, given enough time, then life will evolve. The time since the big bang, since when the universe has been getting cool enough for these conditions to exist, is billions of years.. this means that there is plenty of time for life to evolve on millions of planets. The problem is the distance between habitable planets, and the likelihood that they kill themselves and their planet.. and given such massive lengths of time passing then very many lifeforms have probably existed and gone extinct. Distance and the fact that there could be billions of years where species can come and in increasingly massive time-divergent way, means that we are very unlikely to ever encounter them, given that there are no spaceships whizzing around the place right now.

Exactly. The fact that we have heavier elements like lead and gold in abundance on Earth means that several generations of stars needed to be born, explode, and born again in order to create the elements we have today. Who knows what kind of solar systems may have existed in the past that have since vanished. Mankind is a blink of an eye in terms of the age of the universe, and the chances of us coenciding on the same timeline as other intelligent life is quite slim. Other intelligent life likely happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.

Also, higher intelligence isnt really an inevitable part of evolution. If we didnt have thumbs, or lived underwater, or a litany of other happy coincidences technology wouldn't be impossible.

Finally, space travel takes forever. Aliens are likely to send out unmanned ships to explore the cosmos rather than fly themselves. We only discovered radio waves about 100 years ago so only planets withing 100 light years would be have picked up on our intelligence, and by the time they come find us, we will likely be gone.

In short, I think the chances life forming elsewhere is inevitable. The chances that that life evolving a higher intelligence capable of space travel, but also within the same timeline as Earth and close enough to visit is extremely slim.

One thing that bugs me. In the movie Signs, how were these aliens be smart enough for interplanetary travel, yet never ran a spectrometer over Earth to see it was covered in water before they decided to beam down and run around nude.

Technically we could already have "aliens" living on the planet as it's theorised some animals may have their roots back to an asteroid that hit earth and evolved from organisms. Interesting thought.

As for aliens out there; there has to be some where on some planet. Thing is we can look at the night sky and see the light from a star that perished millions of years ago. Just the light is only reaching is now. So maybe there is some race out there so far away asking the same question just neither one of us has mastered high speed travel.

"Politicians are aliens, destroying humanity from inside out, one lie at a time."

Well said! Isn't it out of keeping that most people of any part of the world (as divided up into 'political geography') are just normal people who want to get on with their lives. Most of us seem to be just normal people concerned with living.

But within seemingly every political 'zone', be it, village, county, country or groups of countries, there is this tiny minority of humanoid looking yolks that insist on highlighting difference and otherness, and causing normal people to feel ill will towards other normal people they've never even met.

That's beginning to sound like a rant so I'll stop now!
