I've said similar before, just been viewing the night sky with a telescope, there's summat about our Solar System with all the cool stuff up there that blows my mind more than anything in the world.

 

Seriously if I could, I would love to go up and see with my own eyes, maybe one day people will visit places like Mars, but they haven't even got the machine or the right spacesuits yet, Saturn is an amazing planet, with it's surrounding rings and moons, to think our Solar System is just a small part of the universe is unreal, Earth is a tiny spec, if that.

One topic you cold spend fucking ages thinking about this. Every star we see is the sun of a different solar system, which will have other planets surrounding. With Billions of stars, fuck knows how many planets there are where life could exist. Just after you get your head around the scale of it all, you start to think, "aye, but why the fuck's it here". Mind blowing stuff. Inspired me to have a read of that book too.

get some lsd nown yer neck, you'll be able to touch the fuckers

The Sun is the name of a star. So technically there is only one 'Sun'.

 

 

was that the same sun that caused hillsbrough?

The only way to travel these distances is to have a crew who could procreate on their way to their target, teach each new generation to be the scientist type whilst also avoiding inter-breeding.

This would mean the scientists in the first part of the journey are merely there as teachers and will teach their young to teach their young to teach their young to be scientists who eventually get to visit the inhabitted planets.

Once they get there the local version of America will blast the fuckers out of the sky!

It isn't going to happen in the foreseeable future.

• 
   
  
• More than 75 million meteors enter the earth's atmosphere every day, but they disintegrate before hitting the ground.
   
  
• Our universe consists of more than 100 billion galaxies, and each galaxy, on average contains more that 100 billion stars, which accounts for more than 10 billion trillion stars i.e. 1 followed by 22 zeros.
   
  
• Even on the clearest night, the human eye can only see about 3,000 stars. There are an estimated 100,000,000,000 in our galaxy alone!
   
  

A few interesting facts above.

I dont think we are here.

 

I think this big space we have is all there is. When I see something or touch it, how do I know its real?

 

That great big space out there and there is only one of me pressing these buttons on this plastic thing in front of a screen that shows shapes lights and colours. I cannot accept that somewhere else out there there isnt someone else doing something similar.

 

Or can I? Maybe there is nobody. Maybe I am nothing but my own imagination, my soul is everything but my body is just an imaginary something my mind needs for my soul live in.

 

So am I really here or am I a floating imagination somehwere in that big hole?

 

You are not here, you are in my imagination. You are floating around and have something totally different going on in your imagination. In your imagination we might have blue grass and pink trees. I may be a horse. Or a volcano. Or a wind that blows through the sky.

 

Who knows what we really are?

 

My head hurts.

BTW I don't mean GOD, he's just as real as Santa Claus to me, as there's evidence of both

 

 

Oh Diddles, you were doing so well.

 

Did you ever watch that 'Ancient Aliens' series I recommended?

My head hurts.

 

 

Yours hurts, a mate of mine actually throws up when they think of the solar system & all that. Apparently it's not that uncommon.

I like to think theres not much that scares me in life bar one or two things, but I choose to ignore all this for no other reason than it literally shares the shit out of me.

 

that's normally why people believe in God

 

Diddles - get yourself "Wonders Of The Solar System" on Blu Ray (or DVD for the luddites), it'll either help you make sense of it all or confuse you even further

 

I defy it not to blow anyones mind a bit

 

as for Jazza's comment about not being technically advanced enough to find other life, I don't think that comes into it, we've found out more than enough about our galaxy in the last 30/40 years alone - fact is, it's fucking massive, likewise, if there is other life, they haven't found us yet either, or they are just biding ther time

Alien experiment we are I tell thee, how the fook else do crop circles appear I do have another stupid theory but I wont delve into it on here as i need to be quite off my tits to go into it regarding Jesus being an alien but do believe me It was a drug fuelled theory!!

Imagine if they landed in Johnny Fow?

 

They'd think 'there's no fuckin wonder they aint found us before now'.

We're probably classed as Alien's to the 'things' we call Aliens, however I don't think that would be right because that uses letters from Earth's Alphabet. They probably might not talk and just communicate through their minds.

 

Or maybe whoever created this world, actually classed summat like a tree an alien, but some human decided to call it a tree instead, afterall dinosaurs and planets have been given names by humans, the aliens/others/things probably call it summat else, but I doubt they use Alphabet letters from Earth because they're not from Earth, so how would they know? unless like us, they have sent things like robots[maybe invisible ones][more hi-tech/developed] to do some research and have copied our speech.

 

All theory's like.

 

P.S Does any one watch the National Geographic channel, quite some interesting documentaries on there.

Because of the mind boggling distances involved, I doubt we will ever know what other life is out there but the law of averages suggests that it must exist. Maybe wormholes and black holes will be the path if we could reach one and have the b0llocks to pass through one. Euclidean space - space/time continuum and all that stuff. Who knows. Good stuff for giving the grey matter a workout mind.

 

I'm with you there on the law of averages, Bolty - it must exist purely from the metrics. However, when one gets one's head around just how ridiculously fine-tuned and conveniently arranged our particular solar system is to enable an environemnt to sustain life on Earth (in primitive terms exact distances of celestial bodies from each other, precise alignment of magnetic fields, gravitational differences, moons, tidal influences, temperatures blah blah), then it does start to appear like a billions-to-one chance of being replicated.

 

Anyway, that's at least two minutes I've spent not thnking about p0rn, so, errr, yeah back on it....

Think this could be the turning of the tides for Diddles here. He's getting taken seriously for once. Either that or he's hacked smiffs account!

 

I would also suggest takin acid n having a wander at night. Life changing shit!

Well I don't think I've said anything ridiculous in this thread, I have certain subjects I like to talk about.

I like to think theres not much that scares me in life bar one or two things, but I choose to ignore all this for no other reason than it literally shares the shit out of me.

 

Its scares me too. The other thing I used to worry about is time going on, and on, and on... I don't know why, but it really freaks me out.

Well according to some people the World will end in 2012, and some believe all technology like the Internet and power lines will be destroyed in 2013[i think irrc]and the sun is estimated to burn out in 5 billion years.

but because of the distanaces etc, the law of averages means nowt here

 

alternatively, it may well have already existed millions/billions of years ago somewhere else, or will eventually exist millions/billions of years elsewhere

 

given how much of a one off our plant is, in terms of everything, you could easily say there is no chance it could happen again!

 

that's why I love it, I've got no idea

 

and that's why god doesn't exist

 

or if he did, he didn't knock it up in 7 days

If there is life out there in the distant universe then I think we should let it come and find us.

 

Let them do the hard work and pay for the petrol.

Quite a few planets are believed to have a lot of gold, so we could always use that and call it like a free journey.

Shit like this melts my brain.

 

OK the big bang happened, what caused the big bang and why did it happen? Was there anything there before the big bang.

 

If there is life out there has it progressed to the point where they're sat at computers discussing us with folk from the other side of their planet? Has it even made it past the stage of micro-organisms?

 

Reet my head hurts i'm off to watch blokes diggin holes.

It is believed that the universe is continually expanding.....if so, what is it expanding into

Exactly. What the fuck is on the other side of the universe then? It is thought that the big bang theory wasn't a big explosion, but a constant expanding universe. But before this universe developed, there was nothing. No time, matter, energy or space.

 

So how did it appear from nothing? Why did I happen? Why was nothing there in the first place? I'm going for a lie down.

all those empty seats....
