      Ty Lex, im in UFO mood right now. Should we as humans set up array of consumer RGB cameras that look at sky and feed that stream into AI that detects objects and report if there is something strange :D ?? I feel like we should look at the sky much more than we do right now.

This clarifies the answer for the viewer and allows the interviewer to build trust with the interviewee and thus get more depth answers to the follow up questions.

    Considering what we can detect and see out there in space with our current technology it's easy to imagine that a civilization that exists in our local galactic group that is only 1000 years ahead of us in science and technology would most likely already be aware of earth and its biosignature.
    A civilization that is only 10,000 years ahead of us would most likely be aware that a civilization inhabits earth and might even have the means to send probes or craft to investigate in a relatively short amount of time (maybe they have warp drive or wormhole technology).
    A civilization that is 100,000 years ahead of us probably doesn't give a crap about us as we are probably a dime a dozen across the cosmos and therefore uninteresting.

    • @HansenFT
      @HansenFT 2 роки тому +6

      Regarding the last paragraph.. would the entire sivilization have to care? We, as a sivilization may not care to much about some obscure animal species perhaps, but enough people do that some are studying it none the less. Also, would curiosity and compassion for other living beings always be reduced with technological advancement? Lastly: If we are a dime a dozen. I think 100 000 years ahead would be pretty numerous. Given how little that actually compared to the age of the universe etc. 10 000 years seems almost negligible. Even if a fair amount of our "equals" would go extinct, still.Ten or a hundred thousand years aren't huge numbers..

    • @03chrisv
      @03chrisv 2 роки тому +8

      @@HansenFT Yes you're right those numbers aren't too big, but it's to basically illustrate that any civilization that is even just remotely ahead of us in technology and lives in our galactic local group already knows the answer if "we're alone in the universe" and is most likely already aware of earth. This does lead to the possibility that we are being actively monitored by other intelligences and could explain some UAP sightings.
      I imagine there could be civilizations out there millions of years ahead of us, perhaps even billions if they managed to survive. They could be God-like beings for all we know.

      Ever heard astronomers or physicians say that whenever they "see" planets or stars in space, that we are so far away that we are pretty much looking at a past version of themselves? Because the time it takes for the light of these objects to reach us (meaning we can see the object) is so slow that whenever we see something in space its pretty much a past version of itself. Meaning that if aliens were coming towards us at an extreme speed, we wouldn't even get the chance to see the past version of them until they were extremely close.

      There’s a lot of variables that haven’t been taken into consideration, they only look at the facts that help their view look stronger, even with a third generation star, the chances for the solar system to form a planet to handle life, are almost mathematically impossible, the Drake equation is just a guess, not bad one, but still a guess, even if you add the possibility of life starting off silicon based(mind you it’s only theoretical) the chance is still near zero, if I’d have to decide wether we are the only example of complex carbon compounds being able to self replicate and gather a conscious, or wether the chance allows for it to be more common, I’d chose the lone mans path, plus add the fact that even if life forms else where in this space we call everything, the chances of it becoming multicellular are low, not terribly low, but there’s just a higher chance life will stop at a algae or moss form, calm equal, then from multicellular to human level conscious? Just keep in mind out of the estimated 8.3 million species tracked, not counting the ones forever forgotten, and the 4.28 billion years it took to get us humans, we are the only species to reach this mark accomplishment in thought

    Thing is, most planets we look at, we can only just about tell that they’re there… we can maybe get an idea of their size and a rough idea of their atmospheric composition… and we’re looking at them as they were millions of years ago… unless they had an intelligent civilisation sending out radio waves, we have no idea if there’s life on some of those planets
    Then there is the question of if they’d even use radio waves at all… even here on earth, radio waves are slowly being phased out and we’re switching over to using higher bandwidth microwave frequencies for transferring information… it’s not hard to imagine there may be a civilisation that skipped using radio waves all together or stopped using them millions of years before we had a chance to pick them up
    Not only that but With the size of the universe and the slow speed of light, it may be the case that the only realistic way of communicating over huge distances between stars is to design a ship that can bend the laws of physics to get around the speed of light and send them to the destination… therefore the only way we’d know they’re here is when they turn up in our skies… something that there is definitely growing evidence for

    The more we advance as a species the more we turn inwards to our own created worlds. I think one of the reasons we don't see incredibly powerful alien species modifying the universe as they see fit is because at some certain stage of technological development civilizations find it more appealing to turn inwards instead of manipulating the environment around them. All we'd really be able to detect from that sort of civilization would maybe be their energy harnessing devices. Even those would probably just black out a star though, so that would be hard to notice. There are areas of the universe that are very dark though. Statistically there should be many many more stars in those areas and yet there aren't. Those could be energy harvesting fields.

      Assuming they're constrained by travel at some fraction of the speed of light, they would indeed have an expanding sphere of influence that would expand at that fraction of C.

      @@lyricallysupreme If physics puts a constraint on the speed at which it is technologically feasible to travel of 0.1x the speed of light (C), then the civilization will spread into every direction where there's a star or a planet at a rate of 0.1x of C. It won't be slower, it won't be faster, and it'll be in every direction that there's a nearby star. So you'll get a sphere of influence that expands at 0.1x C.
      Like imagine you're in a park. You're playing hide and seek, against people who can run 10 mph. Before you start playing, you send a drone up with a camera on it. When you start counting, all these people will start running towards nearby trees, bushes, and trash cans to hide behind. From the perspective of the drone, what does that look like? A _circle_ that expands at 10 mph in any direction. Now, add a third dimension and imagine hide and seek in space but starships flying at 10% of the speed of light; you'll be seeing a _sphere_ that expands at 10% of the speed of light.

    Why is it always assumed that other planets would have the same resources or would progress technology at the same rate? Or, that they would spend their/time energy on technology that succeeds in leaving their own like spacecraft versus mechanism to help maximize their territorial advances? Never understood that. Why do extraterrestrials automatically have to have more futuristic craft assuming their older?

Monotone delivery and a lack of charisma, which may make him underperform relative to the quality of guests. And he has had the joe rogan-boost also. Still, not bad at all. But how many would one have to watch on a regular basis, and to make that claim. Several hundreds at the very, very least. Top 50? sure, and that's huge in and of itself.

    • @manw3bttcks
      @manw3bttcks Рік тому

      But if they're using that fuel for something they'd inevitably have to emit the same power as infrared (heat). We're going with the assumption that there's no super tech way around the laws of thermodynamics. OR that they're not somehow able to dump that heat in some other universe. So if those voids are really some super civilization dyson swarming billions of stars, the visible light would be dim but you'd still detect that same total power in heat.
      The voids we currently see are not showing heat, it seems those voids are really voids

      It takes a long time for light to reach our planet from far away. If they are grabby, they will travel in all directions at a very high speed. By the time we see their industrial society, they're already halfway here, but we wouldn't know (though we could guess) because that light hasn't reached us yet. Look at it this way - if they travel at literally the speed of light, that would mean that we would see them at the same moment they arrive, because they would arrive along with the light that makes us see them. Now, travelling at the exact speed of light seems improbable, but the point is: the faster they travel, the smaller the window betweem seeing them and the time they knock at our door.

If they were a type 4 civilization they could surely shield themselves from the observational methods of a type 0 civilization...the solar systems closest to the darkness would never see it coming and once it is obsorbed it would become undetectable and it would appear that the amount of dark energy and mass had increased..if this is the case then about 75 percent of the known universe has already been absorbed into this type 4 civilization
