Plot twist: we all are the aliens

[@ChanceWilkinsTwin]

​@@sirbarringtonwomblembe4098there's life on earth and there are billions of other planets out there and millions that have potential for life and that's just the ones we can see. To think we are the only planet that ever produced life is idiotic and mental.

Maybe Life doesn't need water ...some of these organisms might have adapted to other things that might be unknown to us right now

[@malachite072]

It doesn't require water, it's proven. But "need" is relative, our perception to this could be limited by the fact we only understand our planet. The properties of water left prints and information about life as we know it. An ecosystem from entirely different molecules means a domino effect is certain and significant. I guess ignorance is a part of science, we know water can give life so water is prioritized in research.

[@wabejoo]

The distances are too big for us ever to traverse. The nearest star system, i.e., the centauri star system, is so far that it would take light 4 years to travel there. We are nowhere near building anything that can travel as fast as light. The best we can hope for is to find organisms on planetary satellites, like Europa, Enceladus etc., and judging from the distance those are from the sun, it is unlikely that we shall find life on such cold worlds. However, that does not mean we should not continue searching.

Sorry but your description of a type 2 civilization is the definition for a type 3. Type one harnesses their host planets energy. Can control local weather and earthquakes and such. A type 2 can harness the planets host star and have colonized multiple planets in the local solar system. A type 3 uses Dyson Spheres so colonize and move throughout the galaxy.

It extracts its energy, information, and raw materials from fission and fusion power, and renewable resources; is capable of interplanetary spaceflight and communication; mega-scale planetary engineering; medical breakthroughs to eliminate disease and slow ageing; multiplanetary government and interplanetary trade; species is tech augmented; but is still vulnerable to extinction.

As someone who's not from this planet "earth" i can tell u we could travel really fast to other planets with wormhole technology. I am just here on earth on your planet working they sent me for a mission. We can travel to other galaxies real fast. And i think its funny they always show the planets as being dry and looking like empty deserts, When in reality there's many advanced civilizations and huge advanced modern cities . For example the moon if you fly over it your gonna see a lot of spacecraft parked outside the moon is like a rest stop they stop there to refuel then from there they go to their destinations, and if u go over to the dark side of the moon they have a huge advanced modern city . Why do u think they NEVER show u guys whats in the dark side of the moon? Of course nasa knows about whats on the dark side thats why they never show u , Now on pluto theres a lot of agriculture going on there , venus also has huge modern cities but they are under a giant dome to protect from the dangerous weather, Were im from we have advanced so much that it would take you guys here on earth like 10,000 or more years to reach our level of technology from my home planet. Well im leaving soon . But ill be back someday .
