Very cool picture. They recently mapped out the super cluster we are apart of. It's name is laniakea.
the universe is just too big to discount aliens.
Think about it this way....
it was long believed that humans were the only species that were intelligent.
now chimpanzees can battle wits with G.E.D. recipients.
I thought the earth was just a few thousand years old.
How do we know the "big Bang " wasnt some alien Rocket that was fired on earth to wipe them out so they could re-populate.
maybe WE are the Aliens ? Maybe Our planet was uninhabitable with all those Dinosaurs running around eating people. How do we know the "big Bang " wasnt some alien Rocket that was fired on earth to wipe them out so they could re-populate.
What I'm getting at, is that the odds of aliens being advanced enough for interstellar travel... is vanishingly small.
I'm curious as to what your opinion is of the so called anti-gravity travel that's a commonly recurring theme in alien-talk? -- and even mentioned in the video I provided in the original post.
Well we know that didn't happen because:
1) People and "dinosaurs" as your thinking of them never lived at the same time. what i implied was that the aliens and dino's wouldnt be able to co-exist.
2) The "big bang" is used to describe the origin of the universe (also time itself) not life on earth Instead of a meteor oe earthquake causing the continents to separate, it could have been a weapon.
3) The "Dinosaurs" didn't ever become truly extinct they just evolved and are still around today. I will post some pics of them under this. We also share DNA with these Dinosaurs living ancestors that indicates common ancestry. I believe this as well, this is why we have alligators, and many other reptillian things
What I'm getting at, is that the odds of aliens being advanced enough for interstellar travel, if faster than light travel is even possible, being in our tiny neighbourhood, and actually caring enough to notice us in the short time period that we've been around is vanishingly small. You've got a better chance of winning the lottery every week, for the next year.

Nasa Voyager ?
Are you implying that Aliens would never do what we are already doing ?
we have been researching our own galaxy since 1977 with this nifty little thing.

All Im saying is there are many, many other possibilities out there. I'll believe in Aliens before i believe in Jesus, or any kind of God.
What if an alien civilization was sufficiently advanced to have spanned several thousands of billion years already, invented interstellar travel or monitoring technology to have mapped out much of the known universe as well? Then in all likelihood, the reason that we haven't been contacted yet is because we are way too primitive and early in our development for them to acknowledge us. Maybe the litmus test of worthiness is not nuking ourselves and surviving the old-age death of our solar system to reach out beyond the stars.
There may be a entire space federations and empires out there composed of a multitude of alien civilizations, using communications systems entirely out of the range of the narrow spectrum of radio waves that the SETI program is focusing on. And as Voyager drifts further out of the Solar System, aliens will just ignore it, shaking their three heads and rolling their seven eyes at our primitive attempts to be cosmos-politan.
Then we've probably already been catalogued and tagged as being "mostly harmless"...
I would love all the things you said to be true. But i don't think we have though enough information to comment on the possible motivation of extraterrestrial species.
But you're only looking at it as if the aliens had the same species life-span and technology as we do.
