So I'm the most evolved species. I have to say, I feel pretty dumb. Where's all the aliens we keep seeing in movies?
Maybe they have the keys to a higher dimensional reality. The bacteria may wonder the same, all the while the birds are flying just overhead, or a bug on the surface of the water just before its eaten by a fish.
Think about this. We can only imagine things we already know. Like, you can't imagine a new color because it's beyond what you know and what is impossible to know. So the aliens in the movies are only based off our current knowledge. If there is another life form, somewhere in the galaxy, it could be so Fucking g different than anything we know Like finding a new color. So you will never see the movie aliens. 7
That very well could be. Another possibility, if there are other intelligent life out there, how common would it have to be for one advanced enough to pop by and say hi? 300billion galaxies of 100billion stars, you might be more likely to find a black snowflake in a blizzard. On the other hand we still dont have a full explanation of how life arises, it could be much more probable than we suppose. In fact some hypothesis are exploring this possibility.
