In search for intelligent life

...Not really sure how to respond to this. This is probably because I am not sure if you are joking or not...

#122 Posted 3 months ago, in reply to post #121 by Zairak

not joking it is possable you just need a strong enough gravtational forcve to bend the space (this is working under the theroy that space is a saddle shape)

My thoughts on extraterrestrial life are basically summed up in this video:

The ending had me in stitches.

Well...Even if it were possible, would it be worth it? It would seem to me that the sheer costs involved in bending reality would be nigh unimaginable. Especially in comparison to simply spreading out across the universe planet by planet, or by using some as yet unthought of method.

yh i would we dont have to create it we might find if where lucky but i doesnt look like where near one so physist (soz for spelling) are trying to figure out how to do it
i would mean that from a thied party you would be traveling beond the speed of light and it would make find another suitable lanet to live on wonce this one i coming to its end would a hell of allot easier

I was just going to point out that if you type up your post into Microsoft Word first, it will help you a lot with spelling and grammar, and make your points seem a bit more valid.

As for the theory of travelling beyond the speed of light, anything that has been come up with is theory, and the scientific basis of that theory is even more theory. For example, one theory is that we could artificially bend space at two separate points to where they touch and form a wormhold of sorts. However, this is based on the theory that the fabric of space can be artifically controlled. In addition, the amounts of energy required would be too much for us to even comprehend such an undertakng.

In short, I'm not saying it's impossible to travel beyond light-speed, but it's highly improbable and we aren't even close to accomplishing it.

yh artifcaily it would take to much energy but using the gravatational energy that is already there we could do seeing as gravity is the only unlimited energy there is

Yet the question that remains is "how." How would you utilize gravitational energy in that sense? Even though it is unlimited, it is does not have the magnitude to accomplish such a feat.

precily why we arnt doing right now

I'm going to backtrack to the subject of probes encountering each other. IF there were alien life and IF it were advanced enough to send out probes, it would still be the equivalent of two blindfolded men shooting guns in random directions with two of those bullets hitting each other in the air.

As for discovering an alien probe sent to earth, it would be the same, except the blindfolded man is shooting at a quarter 30 yards away.

#131 Posted 3 months ago, in reply to post #130 by darkarcher

Two probes encountering one another may not be probable, but it is possible and we do have the technology to accomplish this. And if enough bullets were fired, wouldn't two eventually collide? The problem is that we don't know if there is another blindfolded man shooting back and the bullets cost several hundred million a piece.

and it doesnt have t hit are radars and telecopes could pick it up and we could retrive it

Looking for Intelligent life on a forum? yeah none here.
But in Space...

could be.

Is that because no medium exists in space to transmit sound?

#136 Posted 2 months ago, in reply to post #134 by gcar90

You silly girl, screams are louder in space because there is no air to get in the way.

We apologize.

Alright everyone, continue discussing crackpot theories about how it is possible to travel faster than the speed of light without any scientific evidence to back your claims.

#139 Posted 2 months ago, in reply to post #138 by OverMind

ah thank for that
i ddint say that from your prepective you would be traveling faster than light i merly ment from a third party you would apear to be

#140 Posted 2 months ago, in reply to post #139 by Grantsnake

There is nothing that grounds the worm hole theory to reality. Its a hypothetical notion that does not, and probably never will have a working model let alone a practical use.

Also, it would be nice if you at least tried not to butcher the English language.

fuck off i have dyslexia

#143 Posted 2 months ago, in reply to post #142 by Grantsnake

Ok, first off, I have nothing against people with dyslexia. Nothing at all.

That being said, I don't understand you, Grantsnake. You aren't writing, you are typing. The keys on the keyboard don't move. You just memorize which key is where and press it. It's not like writing, which involves much more mental concentration.

Maybe I am wrong, but I would still like to bring this up. Correct me if you will.

#144 Posted 2 months ago, in reply to post #141 by Grantsnake

Yes, dyslexia is what is preventing you from punctuating your sentences. Since when does dyslexia cause the period on the keyboard to disappear? How about the shift key? There are two of them in case you get confused which side they are on. Does your dyslexia also prevent you from using a spell checker? Firefox 3 has a built in spell check so you don't even have to copy and paste your gibberish into Microsoft Word. Having dyslexia doesn't excuse you from laziness.
