What answer to the Fermi paradox do you think is correct? Is there extraterrestrial life out there, and if so, why haven't we detected it yet?
@trdsf Жыл бұрын
I am not convinced the Fermi Paradox even applies in a universe that has at least one boundary in time. In a steady state universe, which was still a going theory when Fermi asked "Where are they?", then yes, you have an infinite amount of time for any species that might arise to spread to the entire universe. In a time-limited universe, it may well take a certain amount of time for enough metals (in the astrophysical sense) to accumulate to make life, and then intelligent life, a reasonable proposition. And assuming there's no shortcut around the speed limit imposed by light, there's only so far that even the oldest civilization could have reached by now. If we take Earth as average (applying the principle of mediocrity, that we're much more likely to be typical than special), abiogenesis needed somewhere in the vicinity of nine to ten billion years to happen, to form worlds with a generation or two of supernovae ash embedded in them that provides the necessary carbon and oxygen and phosphorus and iron and other 'metals' upon which to develop life, and again assuming Earth is average, it takes 2.5 to 3 billion years to progress from microbes to multicellular life, then another .5 to 1 billion years to evolve intelligence. No paradox remains, we're among several sentient races that have arisen in the last 13.8 billion years. And no one outside of about 200 light years can know we're here anyway, since that's around the earliest date at which pollutants (becoming important about 200 years ago at the start of the Industrial Revolution) could be detected in our atmosphere by a sufficiently powerful spectroscope. And again, assuming Einstein's speed limit is a hard fact, then no one outside of about a 100ly radius can have conceivably both a) detected we exist by atmospheric pollutants and b) immediately mounted a mission to check us out. Compare that 100ly radius, to the actual size of the universe. No, it seems unspeakably unlikely that anyone has noticed us, even if as a matter of statistics, it's unspeakably likely that there are other intelligences in the universe. Thus, I assert the Fermi Paradox isn't a paradox, because the failure to see other intelligences is due to the fact that the universe had a beginning, and that the speed of light is a limit.

The universe is billions of years old and ever expanding. I firmly believe that when the universe was younger, and stars and galaxies closer, their were many species of aliens traversing the universe. Like an intergalactic highway. But as everyone drifted further and further apart the distance became to far and everyone is now isolated by light years and forgotten.
@cadenholke2758 Жыл бұрын
I’m positive there is life and intelligent life out there in the Universe, but what if life only ever evolves to be as intelligent as it needs to be based on its environment? If they faced the same general pressures that early humans faced (predators, climate, etc) it could be argued another species would evolve only to a threshold of intelligence, at which point they are able to adequately survive within their environments. Therefor, it may be possible most intelligent life is as intelligent as we are, not much more or not much less. The only difference would be the amount of history an extraterrestrial species would have compared to us, if it’s significantly more than ours then extraterrestrial life would be that much more advanced.

I remember reading a newspaper article a few decades ago that quoted an eminent astronomer's estimate of the frequency of planets orbiting other stars. I've forgotten who it was - but he said that, so far as astronomers could tell, our solar system was the only solar system with planets, and that planets were probably extremely rare in the rest of the galaxy. He was pretty certain that the formation of the solar system was an anomaly. He said we had to face the fact that planets outside the solar system would probably turn out to be science fiction. And we all know how well his educated guesses have aged. The galaxy is pretty big. Our radio signals have penetrated less than 200 light years of it so far. We know of just one sample of what kinds of life are possible. And our understanding of physics is (sorry Professor Tyson) still primitive, no matter how solid and certain big parts of it seem to be to us. There may be a constant chatter of interstellar communication passing through our solar system, and if so, it's using as-yet-undiscovered (and currently considered to be impossible) physics, since electromagnetic radiation is so slow. If it's there (pure speculation) it is between kinds of life and types of intelligences that will eventually astonish us. I'm comfortable with not knowing if there's intelligent life out there, and comfortable with failing to detect intelligent life if it is out there. My guess is that yes, there's complex life, including intelligent life, all over the galaxy - but all of our guesses about extra-solar-system intelligences and interstellar communication will probably be wrong, and if we survive to continue our explorations, I think life in the galaxy will turn out to be far more complex and interesting than anything we can imagine.

I love listening to you guys. However, I have a different hypothesis about the mirrors facing each other. Ambient light bounces off of anything visible from your location in every direction and at all angles. Any light hitting either mirror at a sufficiently sharp angle (depending on the size of mirrors being used) will be reflected to the other mirror. Assuming you're invisible, your distance from the mirror you're observing would also make a difference. The closer you are, the more of the other mirrors' background would be visible around the edges. The further away you get the smaller it gets. As far as what you would see in the reflection of the reflection, at first I was thinking it would basically just be a glow that was a mixture of all of the ambient light. The more I think about it though, I'm pretty sure you'd just see whatever borders are visible in either mirror alternating and shrinking into infinity at the center due to the parallax of vision. Anyway... how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop? The world may never know.

Collin Brum's question had more to it than what the answer gave credit for. The question regarding the nature of falling into a black hole was suggesting, and I've been thinking along the same tracks, that there is no "inside" or reaching the singularity of a black hole. All matter that falls towards it will (1) from our point of will grind to what appears as a halt and (2) from the object's point of view it will witness time rushing by around them as they slowly evaporates through Hawking Radiation. If we assume this, we can simply say that there is nothing inside a black hole because nothing can ever reach it.

I’m really not trying to recreate the scene in Animal House, I swear, but….. 32:48 I understand your description about a giant scratching his head taking a long time because the speed of light,but doesn’t that explanation suffer from the bias of time at our scale? If, for instance we look at the orbitals of atoms, from our perspective, the electrons are moving so fast that they form a shell and we can’t even know where the electron is, isn’t that correct? If the solar system was like that to a supermassive giant, wouldn’t millions of our years go by in an instant for that giant? Because of our scale, we can’t speed up the revolutions to such a degree that we could see what that looks like to a creature of that enormous scale and time understanding. In other words, at our scale we say the speed of light is too slow to do that giant any good, but at its scale, we might look like an electron shell, with the sun as our atom’s nucleus. If that’s the case, to the giant, they would just be scratching their head, while to us who are only around for 80 or so spins on our orbital, the giant would look like it’s not even moving at all.

Or- if we could get even smaller than quantum mechanics- would we find something even more mysterious lurking beneath it all? Or do we think this is it- these 3 types of physics should explain it all with no need for anything new?

One concept I am attempting to understand (2-parter) is: 1) if our universe is infinitely expanding, what is it expanding into? This question extends to (2): if we calculated by looking back into time at the early universe to understand that the universe is expanding because of cosmic radiation, can we look "forward" past the oldest part of the universe to see what the universe is expanding into? My question is derived from the illustration that was created to show what science believes our universe looks like. So, what is the oldest part of the illustration expanding into?
