Aliens, Blackholes, and Oumuamua - Avi Loeb :E47

[@TheBrall]

Thank you, I really enjoy Avi Loab interviews. He conducts himself in such an incredible scientific and logical manner in his work. Absolutely fascinating.

[@RisforRepair]

Thank you both very much! We truly appreciate all your hard work and research. All the Best! J.R.V

Great show

This was a fantastic listen, thank you

Your welcome! Thank you so much for the comment and tuning in!

Wow ivi loab is amazing I love his outlook 22:44

[@happyjim2]

Just four words brilliant

[@JoFuSoA]

I been listening carefully to everything Avi Loeb says.

[@RWin-fp5jn]

Avi sure has some stamina to keep giving these interviews. As for Oumumua, let's entertain Avi's idea it was not natural, which is the logic default assumption given all the anomalous unnatural traits it has. All well, but then we need to analyze its trajectory in more detail because thats even more mysterious. It was calculated it intercepted Earth's orbit (and only Earth) at a mere 39 million km. Thats a crazy coincidence since our annual trajectory around our Sun is 940 million km. So about a 4% chance. Moreover an incoming interloper wouldn't necessarily cross our orbit to begin with, so it is even a much stranger coincidence. Secondly; the Stereo 1-A Space telescope should actually have seen Oumuamua on its inbound trajectory, but didnt. We only saw Oumuamua as it already passed us. So we don't know for sure it had an incoming trajectory to begin with! Which would point to an active craft and not Avi's idea of a dumb broken light sail tech. As such it might have been stationed at the far side of the Moon or a Lagrange point and at some point left us accelerating along the L1L2 Lagrange axis outward. When gained enough speed it veered off vertically becoming visible for us, simulating a natural hyperbolic exit trajectory, including a 7 hour tumbling. yet it gave away itself correcting its trajectory several times (the unexplained acceleration). Why is this not a crazy theory? Well we may notice that at the time of first observation (oct 19th 2017) the Moon was in the constellation Aquarius as was Oumuamua, so indeed it is possible it intentionally kept our Moon in the line of sight as long as possible. Sure it is speculation, but if we go down the fun road of artificial craft, this makes much more sense than Avi's ' broken light sail' option....

If a black hole was close enough the last thing you would be worrying about is being all green and environmentally friendly.

[@maddentech]

Nothing wrong with being environmentally friendly, pollution is bad and trash is bad, no one wants to live in a trash dump or chemically polluted area 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@davidgalea6113]

@maddentech I didn't say otherwise did I?

[@purplehaze2342]

⁠@@maddentechso you understand how a black hole works yes ?

[@RadagastBrown420]

Speak for yourself

[@maddentech]

@@purplehaze2342 yeah i do and i understand you can have black holes which are small enough to power starships and power plants and you just feed it trash and it gives you back clean energy, and i understand that we dont currently know how to engineer that yet but its currently an engineering problem not a physics issue 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@MrPokerblot]

I found the thing about infinite energy from an event horizon if a bjs k hole interesting but no mention of how you would extract it

[@isitme1234]

If the black hole evaporates. We dont know that for sure. It is brought up by Hawking but we dont know if that is the case.

Well I'm unsure about black holes etc but what about people on the Otago study? Do they just get continually tested on?

I'm sure this clip is quite a while ago

[@MrPokerblot]

22:00. This is an expert and he doesn’t know it’s probably volcanic activity

[@nmarbletoe8210]

good point

[@nmarbletoe8210]

i mean his point is still valid, but 252mya is not a good example to illustrate it

[@MrPokerblot]

@@nmarbletoe8210 I mean there has been more than three mass extinction events going back way back before hominid or even before mammals and one even before trees existed. Over Hundreds of millions of years . Each event destroyed over 90% of life on earth. IMHO the idea of apes evolving into something like what we are now twice on the same planet and seeing no traces of evidence is beyond minuscule. You are right there was no trace of anything resembling even mammals that long ago and I don’t think there is any data to suggest the events he is talking about happening in however many million years or so that contains the existence of mammals, apes and humans in that order. It just doesn’t make sense.

[@isitme1234]

He is an expert but he hugs anti scientific ideas. He slides more and more into esoterics. Maybe for money

[@MrPokerblot]

@ maybe it’s just half hard wired science and half theoretical creativity. But you cannot say something like that about “maybe climatic” without a single thing to back it up.

[@albin2232]

How many papers did Avi write and publish this morning?

[@hervigdewilde3599]

All thoroughly researched, I'm sure... 😉

[@fjgiie]

We humans cannot find out anything about intelligence in the stars. If we decide to spend money looking, the money will be spent on faster and bigger rockets for war.

[@m5games180]

Is god inside or outside of the universe? If both is he Schrödingers god?

[@pauloxo67]

They keep saying many earth like planets millions of them yet they don't say if they have a moon to go with them. As far as I am told life would not exist without our moon? ????????

[@andymccracken4046]

It appears to be common for stars to have planets. Moons seem to be common too. There is no strong reason why the Moon is necessary for life to occur, I have heard people suggesting that but it is just an opinion really.

[@spaceartist1272]

that s just specific to earth.. and our solar system..

[@isitme1234]

Makes no sense that a "Moon" is a special ingredient to form life. It maybe was like this in our case but I am pretty sure earth would have life without the moon. It would be different because it would take more time but that is only because the earth would have needed more time to slow its rotation. Fun fact, the moon will also ve the end for our life because it slows us down. Hard to imagine life on a tidal locked planet since one side gets burned and the athmosphere wont survive that "burning".

[@brachisaurous]

A star is a satellite to a galactic centre, a planet is a satellite to the solar mass, and moons are satellites to planets. In our universe the way the laws of physics operate, it leads to creation of billions of galaxies, quadrillions of stars, planets and moons. Even if a satellite heavily influences the development of life on a planet, there are unimaginable numbers of such systems strewn across the known universe. WE ARE NOT UNIQUE.

Imagine believing in a past civilization 🤣🤣

Is the human species agoraphobic. Or is it more likely our nearest civilisation out there is agoraphobic

[@Nnamdi-wi2nu]

Existence of intelligence alien should not be considered as unhealthy for the existence of God. The idea can't harm God in any way just as the existence of numerous galaxies, stars, planets and other heavenly bodies does not bother God. Understand this, religious story is not a scientific theory or analysis. Don't be scared.

[@ACMichler]

Just, no

[@isitme1234]

The video starts with an assumption and not a fact. I know Avi sounds very confident on many topics but he says stuff like it is a known fact when it is not very often. Seems very anti scientific to me.

[@rickrivethead]

Stuff like what? To assume there is plenty of life out in the universe is a legitimate assumption, seeing how unbelievably vast the universe is. I don't hear him jumping to any other 'Unscientific' conclusions either.
