@@papinbala well, actually nobody knows about "same staff, same laws" - it's just what people prefer to tell ourselves to kind of prove that they know the Universe and can predict it's behaviour. For example, we have Earth, we have Jupiter which is basically a humongous gas sphere and we have Venus with poisonous atmosphere - such different planets with completely different laws. There is a very high probability that all these "potentially available for human survival" planets have their special traits and their rules and laws. The thing is nowadays people do not look for aliens - the majority of us look for other humans or do it seems - because clearly if we are to find extraterrestrial life, it wi certainly obey it's own laws.

There are also some disadvantages to space Telescopes. 1.) Very limited in how big the collecting area (mirrors) can be due having to launched it into orbit. 2.) If there is a hardware problem it likely takes a space walk using astronauts to fix it. Something not easily done, especially not now since the space shuttle is retired. This is why the ground based telescopes such as the TMT/Magellan/ELT will lead the way in space exploration. They will be exponentially more resolution than any other telescope out there. The advent of adaptive optics also compensates for atmospheric distortion.

Having read the books of the first scientist God known as Thoth and as a result understood the underlying harmonic geometry and number of creation the main question became is such geometric proportionality balance, perfection that gave rise to life on earth common or a rarity? All the evidence gathered so far strongly points to the latter. The next question that arises is the speed of light a constant or does it somehow depend on the star and of course we all know it is a constant, this question arises as according to the venerable Thoth there is direct relationship between the speed of light and life on planet earth. Its peculiar in a way that we havn't found another earth because the work of Thoth would seem to predict many earths as so many of the numbers and much of the underlying geometry is present in the singularity at the beginning of time, and its from this very real science that one understands where the notion of an embryonic earth present befor the existance of the light, the big bang, found in the book of Genesis comes from. I also suspect that this is also why the glitterati of science repeat the mantra "Its impossible to know what came befor the big bang" as part of their doctrinal beliefs. The books of Thoth or extracts from its many topics will never be published by any science journal as they strongly present real science that strongly contradict the overiding corporate assumptions based on zero evidence presented daily by popular corporate science that in light of the of the work of the venerable Thoth can now be shown to mistaken. Untill the so called planetry scientists, a realitivley new discipline on the science tree, graduate out of kindergarden and raise their science above the level of fairy stories the question must be asked should they really be allowed to even call themselves "scientists" if they don't even know all of the underlying conditions that came together perfectly here on earth, thats an anagram of heart by the way, and this is not a coincidence as the books of Thoth make clear the heart is the center of our being, just as it is the earth that gave birth to us and is the center of our being. Freedom of the expression of ideas is hard won and cherished part of modern thought so I have a right to express my findings and make them public where I hope some day someone will wish to debate their relavance. The scientist Thoth was revered not only by the ancient Egyptians but also the Greeks and Romans as Hermes and Mercury, messenger of the Gods no less and this is one reason we hear so little of his work from modern scientists who make no secret these days that they have collectivley in their own minds at least completed the "scientific" disapearance of the divine from any "intellgent" persons belief system lest they lose all credibility amongst their peers, fait accompli so they would have us all believe as "science fact" when the truth is its much more likley to be science fiction and can be seen as such once Thoths works are given due care and consideration they deserve, if for no other reason than the works of Thoth are the pristine orginal science of mankind that three separate carbon 14 dates all suggest was a science that was fully formed 10,333 years ago. Thoth it turns out was not only revered in ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome but also in Neolithic Britian which is where Thoths most important work was successfully preserved to make itself available again when the time was right, and that time was always planed to be when the earth tilt again reached 66.6° for the first time in 20,666 years, the balance point of the earths natural tilt cycle that fell on the date of the last millenium and was marked by the return of the phoenix, the great firebird and calandrical marker of the ages that lit up the night sky for months on end, a firebird, given the name this time round of comet Hale Bopp, and despite what wickiepedia may say, this was the brightest comet and longest lasting visible in recorded history, nothing like it has been seen for many thousands of years. Stonehenge is a book of Thoth, preserved in stone to survive the ravages of time and mans destructive hands, pristine, intact, far more than the sum of its parts, written built by Horologists in the unversal languge of science and number so any reasonably educted person can successfully read them, but what one pulls from them depends on the knowledge of the reader. They are being made available for anyone to read on my youtube channel should anyone wish to read them.

I've always looked at it as if you had an ant hill on a park bench in Central Park, New York and an ant hill on a pier off a beach in San Francisco, each believing their ant hill was the only one on the planet and each making their way inward in an attempt to see if they could find other ants. Some may conclude they were all alone because the distance is just too great, not to mention ants that exist across the ocean etc. I feel as though humans are the exact same at our current state; and like the ants, there's an entire reality beyond what we have the ability to fathom.

You're supposing there is a snail in New York to know about. We don't know there is more than us in the universe, as far as life is concerned. Personally, I'm a believer, but fact and belief aren't the same. The snail might believe there is snail in New York, but it doesn't mean there is one.

It's 20,000 light years to the edge of the Milky Way. Maybe 25-70000 light years to the nearest galaxy. There is probably life out there and probably highly intelligent life out there but the reality is that they will likely wind up being too far away to ever know for sure. They will have the same limitations with space travel due to relativity that we do.

So far as any non- hallucinatory scientist can tell after more than 60 years of looking, is 'we are alone.' Is it possible there's other intelligent beings in the universe? Sure, but we've yet to detect them.

What is that one lifeform created from the primeval egg as "Father Lemaitre" called and which Albert Einstein became the first person to give a standing ovation to after the Priest, who also held a Ph.D. in physics concluded? Father Lemaitre concluded that if Edwin Hubble's redshift of the far most galaxies was proportional to their distance (Hubble's constant) then the universe if rewound as a film would have been a "zero" point primordial egg. Please forget that he was a Catholic Priest for a moment. He was also a physicist who concluded that Edwin Hubble's findings meant one thing. That the universe must have been at one point, a "primeval egg" as he called it. We now call it a "singularity", but back in 1929, the term "primeval egg" was sufficient. So now, if the universe is almost 14 billion years old, what does that tell us? It could mean that we are the new kids on the block. Our Sun is only 4.3 billion years old. The Universe is over 14 billion years old. So our sun has only been around for about less than 1/3 of the time the universe has been around. If other stars had planets which had occupants that developed the science to explore other worlds, their occupants probably would have occupied other worlds that would be compatible with their needs. Since we are on a similar course, trying to land and survive on Mars, why would such a hypothesis about others be so unreal? My point is that we are now the "new kids on the block". We've sent radio signals into outer space for enough years for other civilizations to intercept our messages. But suppose their knowledge of physics is so much more developed than ours, that our understanding or "relativistic physics" is obsolete?
