budious Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 I imagine from orbit, we must look like a galactic dump. Thousands of various satellites in orbit whether in use or not. A nice brown smog stains popping up everywhere. I can see why the little gray men haven't stopped by since Roswell. Of course, the vast conspiracy by the Vatican to cover the existence of any such foreign intelligent life form which may or may not resemble mankind and thus, not be in the image of God. Muslim terrorists would be building spacecraft to deliver suicide bombers to the foreign infidels. What can of worms have I started here? On second thought, it was not so long ago that the Earth was flat. Then we figured out we could sail around it. We stole the continents from the Native Americans and the Aztecs. We then enslaved the Africans and dragged them over to toil the fields on our newly stolen property. It's a galactic property race!

Eagle Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Enslave or be enslaved. That´s the question. Well, no, I hope that, when we may be able to travel that far, the human society is much more intelligent than now and can leave that dark side of humanity behind them. Who cares at all?!

Verdex Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 It seems there's more to come in the next years, take a look at this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/6611557.stm That sounds *very* promising Asteroids do not concern me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Rob Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Well, whats in it for us? If we turn you in, we can receive billions as reward money, and then have a huge SWR party anywhere in the world we please. Of course, if we decided to turn you in, we'd toast to you and the painful experiments you'd endure just so that we could finally all get together.

Defender_16 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 So according to these odds 1:211 - (Habitable zone:Non Hab Zone) so far, we'll do pritty good in exploring the galaxy. 211 planet discoveries in what, 7 years? Most of those being more recent. Cryogenics has been getting better with something in the +90% range of surviving without brain damage. (Done with dogs.) I'm betting by 2020 we'll have something a bit closer. So, anyone for launching freezer ships into the great beyond within our lifetime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wouldn't be paying anyone anything! They'd destroy the planet just for harboring me! Those that know me the best would end up in the room next to me. You would all be getting tortured right along with me. Is that incentive enough, Rob??? Chaos, Panic, Disorder, Destruction.....My work here is done.

Verdex Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I remember a conversation with a guy with some knowledge about quantum-computers and wether we will ever see them. His statement: "In our lifetime or never!" That was some three years ago and there has been quite some progress. So I am very optimistic about the human race and its abillity to invent interesting stuff My guess: 250 years from now As for so long, we'll have some more good pictures to enjoy as it seems: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6645179.stm Asteroids do not concern me...

I hope to go see it tomorrow. I'll do my best to remember to get some photos. UPDATE: So I went to the National Mall in DC yesterday... Apparently it was there only for last week, so by the time I got there, it had already been packed up. All that was left were an Abrams tank, Bradley fighting vehicle, a few other armored tracked vehicles, an Apache and a Cobra attack helicopter, and a Little Bird helicopter. Nothing too exciting.

Mitth_raw_nuruodo Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 SOCL!!! Where the hell are the God-damned pictures?!? @Rob: You have to find, and catch, me first. And don't think for even a single nanosecond that any military force on this planet could possibly catch and/or stop me. I may be in hidding here, but I came here with technology from my home planet!
