the observable universe is not
From other place
for there to be an edge to the universe, there would also have to be a barrier, which there just isnt, there couldnt be.
Tbh, alot of Archeobacteria arrives on earth all the time from Comets and meteors. On Europa, the satellite we have in orbit has caught microbes on the camera lens from water jets spraying water up into the upper edges of atmosphere on the camera.
Probably there's just no way to do FTL and we'll just never meet any other species
Literally in a million years
You can try to argue how stats work but the fact is we have one sample, and it is here, excluding it we have zero
there probably is life out there in other solar systems
but we have no way of being certain it exists
so its not certain there is other life
That's a pretty stupid metric ninja
and there is no credible evidence to suggest that their is
the bacteria growth that evolved into multicellular organisms can be found in many harsh conditions. There's still a chance that life would propagate else where
So the odds are the amount of time it takes to form a molecular bond, and how many times that time has passed for every atom in the universe since the start of the universe.
excluding the only evidence of something means that its impossible, that does make logical sense, but its also a pointless thing to say
If you just exclude data you want to you can come to any idiot conclusion you want
I mean if you want to go by that logic ninja
Which for our purposes, is immeasurable
You don't exist
No chance of ninja existing
The point were making is that until we have any observations of life elsewhere we have to assume we are the only ones.
Then we have to ask why isn't it everywhere.
because it is, we just cant go there
yet
Because it is simpler to consider the Earth is forced to have life, rather than a natural process at that point.
You guys should go to the debate channel
Because either life is universal, or unique.
<#680587502918041623>
the debate channel has slow mode
which isnt suited to this discussion
works better then
What? Why do we have to assume that? It's better to assume that because the universe is huge and old chances are at least someone else exists somewhere as long as we exist
And I argue it is more likely that life is unique and therefore we're either in a simulation, or there's a God.
I mean, I find it funny though that in my favorite Science fiction setting - Traveller - there is no true FTL drive as we think of it. And the "Empire" in the setting only covers 1.5% of the Milkyway galaxy.
Humanity itself only encountering its first Alien Species in the year 2661 by accident when sending ships beyond earth's solar system.
more thought out discussions
how is it more likely that life is unique
13 billion years and billions of light years, 1 planet
What you mean
