More and more I think we're not seeing them in proper context. They're not extraterrestrials, they are earthlings ..subterranean earthlings that live below the continental shelfs and ocean's bottom and have incredible flying saucers that can circumnavigate the earth and disappear in a heartbeat. I think they've been here at least as long as humans have. My two cents. I also think the octopus is their sort of slypokerpus and is on watch 24/7 in the murky depths of coral reef and trenches!
It's a fascinating video..the idea that a civilization can rise and fall before we could even detect it or too small for us to see.
Sasquatch has done a decent job avoiding detection...imagine Sasquatch with a flying saucer! That would be a Wookie!
Too long. Didn't care. Tho the guy reminded me of a teacher I had in college. I should email him and see what he's up to (and then cry a bit because it was like 30 years ago).
In terms of viability the universe is pretty young! Only around 10% into its most viable period for producing life.
Some are living in our oceans. Others underground. And others near the stars. Government is never going to do the work for you. Too many credible cases with legitimate testimony.
As for my thoughts on the paradox? Intelligence like we have it is probably pretty rare, but I believe life overall, complex, glorious, amazingly varied life that shockingly will be a lot like earth life is actually pretty common. I think animal intelligence up to primates is probably not so rare, allowing for differences in evolution based on the history of the planet (impacts, evolutionary choke points, etc). Human style intelligence with a technological bent is really rare. Too easy to knock yourself back down a few pegs either through self-inflicted actions or the world dealing you a bad hand over and over. We have had massive ices ages and asteroid strikes and super volcanoes and that’s all since humans have been a thing. We are incredibly fragile in our social constructs, but the good news is we can survive hardships biologically quite well. Humans are here to stay, but we may be Stone Age again for a while… maybe forever. But after the next ice age starts in 12,000 years and finishes in 480,000 more, once we forget we were ever this far along, we will be none the wiser. All evidence will be gone, and we won’t even remember how to look for it.
Very true. But that is a long, long time in terms of the time it takes for a civilization to rise and fall.
