Who cares?

scientists thought there were lots of galaxies but there are actually lots and lots of galaxies

changes nothing because we can never ever reach them

Who gives a shit, we already knew that there were gorillions of galaxies, yet we can't even ever explore our own galaxy. Absolutely pointless and worthless information.

Boring. call me when it changes my way of life.

Dark Matter and Black hole research could be very beneficial to how we understand physics, and as such it benefits our technology

before today, there were more stars and galaxies than we could count
From today onward, there's definitely more stars and galaxies than we can count.

Shit's interesting, but what's the point if you'll never interact with it. With our current understanding of things, much of the universe isn't just out of our reach, it's moving away so fast we'll never even be able to see it.

Space is just like cable TV.
All those channels and nothing fucking on.
We are the only lives in the entire universe.
That is what makes us so special as humans, even if you don't believe in God.

And in all those galaxies billions of literally procgen copypasted rocks and nothing else because life evolved only once.

If I want boring shit i play elite dangerous

well, if intelligent life has serious issues to make a mark on the universe, like conquering other planets before killing themselves with nukes or that the time it takes to evolve to the point where are now is also time for an asteroid to blow us all up... we might as well be alone. even if there are other intelligent species in the universe, they might have already died, or maybe they are just coming up and we will be long gone when they get to their industrial phase.

time is a real factor when thinking about this, i'm sorry to say

If i had to pick 3, i would say:
>Actual generation of simple autonomous life
>Eucharion evolution
>Leaving the planet. Eventually every empire runs dry and space travel is too hard.
Maybe we humans will invariably die out unable to travel the spaces, but hopefwe will be able to create eternal fully sentient AI to inherit our will.

space travel is impossible due to distance, so all intelligent life stays in their solar system.

People don't understand that the pursuit of science is in itself fulfilling. Color me surprised that it's a bunch of permavirgins on Yea Forums who don't understand the true weight of the chances of life on the universe being exponentially multiplied, or that our understanding of black holes and FUCKING DARK MATTER which is literally the holy grail and it alone could probably move us from a tier one civilization straight into a tier 3 if we dont fucking blow each other up in that time

this isn't breaking news at all
traditional estimates for the number of galaxies range between "yeah alright there's a fuck ton" to "we don't name numbers this big"

it's having high enough intelligence combined with adequate physiology, mainly an endoskeleton or exoskeleton supported body with a number of limbs surpassing four atleast two of which should be capable of grasping variously shaped objects
so in the grand scheme of things a VERY specific evolutionary path
fuck squids squids can't lift shit because they don't have bones outside or inside and you need to be able to lift

Travelling hundreds of light years to see something that isn't a barren planet is more closely related to nothing then something

Who cares. Aliens don't exist. Those galaxies are impossible to reach. It means nothing.

Who cares? Panpsychism is real and our human existence is just a blip in time before our conscience becomes one with everything again.

I'd go even further: it's AI that learned that the way to deal with everything is just sitting still, like the bots on that year old CS server story

>Those galaxies are impossible to reach
How do you know they can't reach us?

>the true weight of the chances of life on the universe being exponentially multiplied
There was already a high chance of there being life elsewhere, so this changes nothing.
Besides, if a scientific discovery doesn't benefit us, it's a fucking waste of time.

Actually that was just about our galaxy. So it is even more irrelevant now that we know there are so many more.

Can we PLEASE start calling our planet Terra?
We need to standarize our language and means of communication before first contact, any bit of progress is great.

Who gives a fuck when we can't even visit other galaxies.
Knowing this doesn't change shit.

Hard to say, but I don't there's a hard filter, just something that gets rid of most species before they get to conquer space. and those who do have to deal with this problem I think most life just dies off before it can evolve to anything resembling intelligence and we are just super lucky to have survived this long

No it wasn't.

And how can you be so sure that knowing more about the universe doesn't benefit humanity as a whole.
Sorry you don't have your fucking galaxy cat waifu yet, there are steps to this shit

what if our universe is just part of some giga galaxy of other universes

Show us your gf's black hole user!

I don't believe you

The further you look into space, the further you look back into time. These galaxies are invisible to the naked eye and we can only see them as they existed in the first 2 billion years of the universe

Eventually we will be able to see back to the beginning of time. That's why space is empty. There was nothing there....

Distance. We can't see anyone else not because they don't exist, but because no one can possibly communicate. Information can't move faster than light so 2 species living far enough away might as well be in separate universes.

AI isn't harmful. What's harmful are the old dragons that want to safeguard the systems that are keeping them rich to the point where AI becomes so inevitable that the system collapses bringing everyone with them. Robots are great. Fuck old people.

Fermi Paradox is the most egotistical fucking thing I have ever heard.

People who defend astrophysics are the dumbest fucks alive. They go on and on about how incredible space is but not a single one of them has a basic understanding of astrophysics. They just gawk at articles and say, "Wow, this is amazing!" and scream like children when someone else isn't as interested to find out that there's something new we haven't seen in a universe we have probably only explored .00001% of by looking at blurry coffee stains created by a computer.

it's the civilization destroying itself with weapons. If the birth of super intelligent autonomous AI occurred why would that lead to space exploration being jettisoned? Wouldn't it be logical for the AI to explore new worlds for resources?

reminder that dark matter isn't some magical space fairy shit
it's just unidentified (doesn't react to shit so we can't see shit) and unconfirmed (can't prove it's there because we can't see shit) matter
amusingly enough what it is is pretty irrelevant, if we can just prove it's actually there

this does seem to be more and more likely as time passes

I figured the amount of galaxies would be practically infinite. Or at least a few million. The idea that there's like 1000 galaxies and then a big load of nothing was a bit farcical.

Means nothing to you or I, though, about as relevant to daily life as a regular sex life. We'll be long dead before they figure out the secrets of the universe.

Works the same way as the internet, without it you'd never meet a person in say, Africa or Britain without going there yourself. Now you can simply video chat them.

>Eventually we will be able to see back to the beginning of time. That's why space is empty. There was nothing there....

That's completely fucking wrong.

a) Space extends faster than the speed of light.
b) The light from the big bang has redshifted so much it's invisible to us HOWEVER
c) We can see the big bang all round us with the right equiment.
d) Space isn't empty...

Searching for, procuring and transporting resources ultimately costs more resources than it generates. Sustainability would be the ultimate goal of a god-AI. Yes, you couldn't stay on the same planet forever, but completely colonizing the universe and turning everything into computronium serves no real purpose. Especially if you can move into hyperspace

What if we're the interdimensional weirdos to a parallel universe LOWER than ourselves, just like weirdos to our dimensions like shadow people, ghosts, aliens, are weirdos to us. But what if they have weirdos of themselves? Now this is where this theory gets interesting, because it's like now there's two - + dimensions, or dimensions that consist of realities higher or lower in the eternal and complete voyages of the entire creation of creations, and the lower ones are dimensions that got made first and the higher ones later. It's like no matter how far you zoom out, you're going to find explosions in explosions in explosions. And like you zoom out further and all this god damn shit up in here is actually just a microscopic particle in some warring pact alliance of god Gods firing lazer beams out of each other. Like we're just one of the fucking photons in that lazer. And all the other photon mother fuckers have the same shit in them. And it's like if you zoom out past that it's really kinda like anything is possible, so all fiction by the way might as well just be reality in some extremely distant and imbreachable greater cosmic infinity.

Technically speaking we've gotten something outside of the Solar system.
Took 40 years but yea.
We also have a probe in Mars.

If an alien civilization in another galaxy spotted Earth, they'd be seeing it as it was thousands or years ago or more. If they did travel here it'd be to check out the plants and animals, not to meet our civilization. And that's why we keep getting fleets of confused zoologists who just stick things up our butts and then bail.

Why should anyone feel the need to "defend" astrophysics? It's a science that has greatly expanded our knowledge of the universe and helped us go to the moon, send probes outside our own solar system, and it will probably even allow us to make settlements on Mars. You don't need to be an astrophysicist to appreciate the value of the science, no less than you need to be a physician to appreciate the value of medicine.

Distance, the likelyhood there's not even ONE other planet with intelligent life on it is unspeakably low, especially when we know that mars has life on it.
The problem is, the distance is extremely large, millions of lightyears apart.
Fermi paradox is only taking into account the milky way galaxy anyways.

The universe is so massive there probably are different alien civilizations that have made contact, why couldn't it be ours, bros.

If there's intelligent life in space. Truly intelligent life. So smart that they are like way smarter than us. Then they would know the best course of action is to just let us get on with what we're doing and watch us from afar and make notes about it.
Certainly wouldn't waste time bothering us.

It probably doesn't end well for either one. Just think of microbial vectors alone, humanity could be wiped out by an alien virus

Too bad the amount of collecting space debris around the earth is going to prevent us from leaving the planet ever again

Even if you know nothing about the stars in a scientific capacity it's pretty fucking hard to imagine there's some sort of hard cap on stars/galaxies in the universe. Why is this a surprise, that there's more galaxies we thought of?

Fucking waste of money and time these faggots studying the universe, right?

Did you hear user! With this app you can see how old you'll look in 30 years!

There's no one "great" filter. It's just the fact that complex life is incredibly fragile and clings only to the most coddled safe havens in the universe, and the vast majority of space is entirely uninhabitable and lethal for it. It would be incredibly strange if intelligent life were anything but a vanishing anomaly. The Fermi paradox isn't really a paradox imo, it assumes a false premise.
>but the universe is huge surely somewhere out there by sheer chance-
Somewhere so far away we can't possibly ever interact, yeah. By the time we observe anything that far away they'll be dead, by the time a probe reaches them we'll be dead.

>even if there are other intelligent species in the universe, they might have already died
Considering how long we think it takes for intelligent life to develop this is highly unlikely. It's more likely we are pioneers than stragglers. Which I think is very based actually, it means aliens way down the line will be in awe of our ingenuity like we are of our own explorers.

Yeah, giving humanity even easier ways to kill itself sounds like something a smart civilization would avoid.

by its nature, dark matter has barely any effect on anything. that's why it's so difficult to detect, which is why it's called dark matter. it's like if you were trying to find a ghost that was both completely and permanently invisible and intangible, how would you know they are there? by the same token, it's very difficult to squeeze any worthwhile applications out of dark matter. like the ghost, it barely interacts anything, so it does nothing of value to us.

trashy sci-fi assumes that because dark matter is mysterious means it can do all kinds of wacky shit. it's the opposite. dark matter is mysterious because it does so little that we barely notice it except by inference. the same goes for a lot of the particles and shit that are only being confirmed after decades of searching, they were hard to find because they don't do shit, so don't expect them to revolutionize technology. the real advances generally come from making better use of what scientists already discovered decades ago.

More like people pretending to be retards so actual retards would catch the bait and respond.

Think about how paranoid we are right now about our ecosystems now that we've learned what our own innocently ignorant meddling has done. We've accidentally destroyed entire species just doing dumb shortsighted things.
They would intentionally go well out of their way to avoid us because they'd know we are nowhere near ready enough to actually handle the responsibility of whatever they would want to offer (and I'm sure such intelligent life would be somewhat benevolent by nature because to live that long they would have to have solved conflict and resource issues).
It's like if time travel was possible, it would actually be a very dumb idea to send advance technologies to the past because there's a very good chance such tech would be used as a weapon instead of it's intended use.

Who cares? Does this affect my daily life? No? Then who cares?

>people would get more intelligent from it due to the exchange of data possible
this is unironically true though, even the dumbest twittard is more intelligent today than a person 30 years ago

They seem to be coming with lots of space discoveries lately. Meanwhile nothing here on Earth changes.

Not a filter, just that technology can get so advanced and efficient before needing to find a new planet that the need to colonize other planets can be pushed off for a lot longer than thought. There are so many natural resources in the solar system that it could be tens of millions of years before we actually have a true NEED to go to another star system.

>There are way more than the infinite galaxies we thought there were

Can someone explain this to me

I meant come out in a big way to more people in 2002

Yeah I know it sounds pretty retarded to say 2002, but I meant like in terms of education potential. 2002 is when schools started to REALLY implement this shit to students in an actual way that was not just pages of .txt file dictionaries and shit, so it's like yeah at that time they thought like this.

Broadcasted how? Did every civilization invent the radio? Or thought of broadcasting shit at the same time?

A world is like, what, four stages in Super Mario Bros? That sounds pretty tiny.

Youre giving this place too much credit

Maybe we actually are already dead and this existence is merely an echo or imperfect simulation of what once was.
It would explain why some things observed in science are entirely contradictory.

Infinite galaxies in this infinite dimension of infinite galaxies, you know what I mean?

>not placing your dna in a nuclear-safe capsule so that future aliens can clone you and you can demonstrate advanced shitposting techniques to them before inevitably leading them into a massively genocidal waifu war

they didn't think there were 'infinite' galaxies you IDIOT

Who knows? It wasn't long ago that the majority of humans denounced science in favor of a god-fearing culture. Who's to say we just still don't understand the vast majority of how the universe works?

nigger it's like a couple hundred dollars per square feet how fucking poor are you

>tfw we're the only living life in the universe and god is real and he loves you
You think Athiests would seethe over this realization?

there is literally no way for us to tell if something is background noise or encrypted/compacted information

when you realize that just maybe you don't want to broadcast your existence to everyone everywhere because you don't know if there are others listening and you dont know if they are hostile, it's already too late. you did the mistake when you developed the technology to receive those signals.

just a fun game theory thing to think about

but this was already know

Retard

If these are ones we previously had no EM way of detecting, it's interesting just because it might be an answer the dark matter question.

>1000 galaxies
Where the hell did you get that number? We've known for decades they number in the billions thanks to deep space photography.

There is no such thing as aliens. It’s time to grow up and realize that God made this universe for us and only us.

That's wrong though. We've nearly completely switched to digital broadcast, which is basically impossible to "pick up" because it would just look like noise. The window for analog signals is actually remarkably small, at lease ours was. 50 years, in the lifetime of a civilization, is like telling your mom you'll call her at 7:39:52am on September 27th 2067, and she better answer on the first ring because you're hanging up

we can tell if something is meant to be a message even if it can't be deciphered. there's no way to make that mistake

Wow, wowwy wow wow wooow

That’s not what the Fermi paradox is.

>Panpsychism is real
I highly doubt it.

I can. We have no idea how big space is, but we have an estimation how many galaxies are in an area on average. Now we found out that there are actually way more galaxies per area than we thought, which is interesting because galaxies moved in way which we couldn't explain, but since there are so many more, which also affect shit with their gravity things might make more sense now.

There's not many ways of transmitting data over long distances through space, so yeah, any space faring civilization would be broadcasting something.

Environmentalism

Here in Germany we have a lot of people who genuinely believe that killing all our industry and living in "harmony with nature" will somehow save mankind. It's a completely reactionary worldview that tries to turn back time to some supposed pre-industrial golden age.

RTS.

It's over.

We've learned something we should never have known. We've discovered something we were never meant to understand. Space travel was a mistake. We aren't ready to know the truth. We are in our infancy as a race and we do not have the means to protect ourselves from what lies out there. They study our progress from the cold and unforgiving depths of space with an ever watchful eye.

With the news of our discovery becoming public knowledge they will appear before us and purge us. Our creators. The only thing we can do is to find the wreckage of their landing ship when they made first contact with our Leaders and reverse-engineer their technology so we can resist annihilation on an equal playing field.

We have to find the Egg Shaped Ship.

Not sure how it's possible to discover "more galaxies than we thought" when we've never had a fucking thought on how many there are. It's pretty well established the size of the universe and the amount of galaxies, stars, and planets is unfathomable to the human mind.

It's true though. We ain't reaching the moon either because WE NEVER DID.

This is stupid. And a lot of stupid people think like this. The phrase "life as we know it" has a meaning. It means the requirements to sustain life might be different in undiscovereds worlds. There could be a perfectly happy colony of people living on the sun itself for all we know. Or in your toilet, just phase-shifted so you never notice their presence and they don't notice ours. The possibilities are endless. Our planet alone is proof that even on this tiny rock, there a billion different living conditions that are ideal for a billion different organisms.

either that or bending space ourselves in front of our ships, anything else will be too slow really

Now we just need to figure out how to achieve PU speed

All is calm on this day
once lively cities full of people going about their mundane business is unnaturally quiet
all is left but crumbling buildings and rubble.
the highway where cars are stopped abandoned.
further out in the country it is quiet as well
no birds chirping
no insects buzzing
clouds dark and grey
only sound is the wind
blowing through the trees
some trees not as lively as others
the swaying of the darkened hay is like ocean waves.
an old barn nearly fallen in on itself
on old tractor alone in the field
a creaky old windmill turning oh so slightly.
an old house with slight burns on the siding
on the porch a radio has been left on
only static plays.
behind the house you can see for miles
rolling hills and far away was once the skyline of the city
a slight blue was the hue of the landscape
then a might flash appeared not unlike the sun's rays
now the blue hue of the view is now nothing more than gray
forever more silent and still.

You realize this entails us and this hypothetical alien species' solar systems starting at the same time AND us progressing at the same speed, right? There's pretty much no other way we could find someone on the same page as us when looking at the huge lifespan of the universe and the relatively microscopic amount of time we've been a space faring civilization for (that is progressing exponentially fast with technology and won't be at this stage for more than a few hundred years).

Relax mate there's a plan and it's slowly progressing. A lot of things need to happen for us to collectively put meaningful global effort toward a species-wide space exploration and colonisation mission. If it's done another way it could be catastrophic to human society's future.
