Those experts ignore the ufo footage that are recorded on earth lol
extraterrestrials will find us before we do lol thatโs how we find life outside of earth. Itโs unlikely that we will discover life elsewhere. The arrogance of those โexpertsโ is why they never find life because stupid at some university thinks humans are the center of the universe
This is so cool. If there is plankton, or something similar, then you know there's cooler stuff. The second thing, if there is life on another planet this close by–there is life on billions of planets.
It is 120 light years away. If you traveled 186,000 miles per second, it would take you 120 years to get there. A two-way radio communication would take 240 years
We found life by alien farts
It's so ridiculous because this planet is so far we will never ever be able to even visit it even if there was life
Of course there's other life out there! We're just too dumb to think a god made earth and earth only.
Anything we know about this planet is over a century out of date.
I wonder how the aliens will taste…..
If there is similar life on that planet, they may not want to be discovered & reduced to our way of life!
Duuu of course there's life on other planets and they have our plants and animals, why do you think there's so many ufo sightings. There's video of one by the military going right into the ocean. They shut down the nukes in the 50s in the cold war.
The more I see of up there, the more I think it is hell for us. Down here is like heaven compared to up there. If there is life, it mostly would be like demons to us or we to them. Life on otherworlds didn't evolve alongside of us, so the chances of finding life enough like that on earth to not be harmful to us is highly unlikely from the evidence I have seen so far. Nice to know we are not alone. Hope it stays that we never meet them or them us.
Another POINTLESS and USELESS discovery that will lead to NOTHING, while humans still fight and die over dumb and petty reasons. We are pathetic.
Give me a break
Just release the Epstein list. ๐
Im sure trump will find some way to defund this as well. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Letโs go there!
Intergalactic communication doesn't exist in real-time, so the point is moot.
THATS OLD
How can a telescope find life on a planet 124 lightyears away (1,312 years or 7.289e+14 miles away) but can't find missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 right here on Earth?
There's no warp drive enterprise, so we're not going there
Life can also be just bacteria or single celled organisms, does not mean its animals or humans like us, so don't get your hopes up for a new alien pet or something.
I think we would be arrogant to think that we are the only life in the universe. It may not be life as we know it but life unto itself and it's environment.
