Idea

What if there is something to be said about that idea. It would certainly lend credence to the belief that although intelligent life exists (or existed) on other worlds within our universe, we are unable to make contact due to the immense differences in our abilities to perceive existance. It certainly would be a quandry... the only way in which to travel throughtout the galaxy within humanly survivable time frames would be at light speed.... but to do so would transform our state of existance. We wouild in effect no longer be physically or mentally able to exist within the constraints of the physical world as we know it.
