How is not being alone terrifying? I'm not exactly terrified of it. It is terrifying if we were alone because then what the fuck happened that we are the only ones.

To be fair, the universe is roughly 13 billion years old. Humans only came on to the scene a hundred thousand years ago making it possible that there are other civilizations and intelligent species since we evolved at such a fast pace

"sounds"
Pretty pointless

Brainlet.

It's pretty incredible how people like you can manage to deny actual evidence right in front of your face and simultaneously claim that you don't believe because there's no evidence.

What an original insult.

At least he's trying, what have you contributed other than fuck all?

It’s because the unknown is an inherently scary concept to mankind, and there’s nothing more unknown than space. If there is life besides us, not knowing what it’s like is a frightening idea. I didn’t think I’d need to explain this. Here’s another quote for you.

>The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.
HP Lovecraft

first of all we are not alone
single cell lifeforms can and are multiplying in some random shithole plant or asteroid core right at this moment so the whole statement is moot
real question is are we the most advance species in this sandbox or there is some space niggas out there capable of warping into our system and dabbing on us with there tachyon canons

That's not evidence right in front of my face. There's a whole bunch of explanations for the existence of that spot, from blatant editing for any reason, to a faulty camera, to some easily identifiable object that is just not clearly identified in this case due to the circumstances. I always find it funny how this evidence always shows up in shitty footage or photos that is ambiguous as fuck, never something that can be put beyond doubt that we are looking at an actual UFO. Is there even the most remote possibility that it actually is extraterrestrial life? Yeah, but the odds are so horribly low given how not once since we've had access to high-quality recording devices has any evidence for this stuff showed up that used said devices.

>life can ONLY evolve in the way we know it on earth because we're special and perfect and we know everything

I think we’re not alone, but the odds of us ever encountering another intelligent life form is extremely small. Yes the universe is big. Very very very big. We’ll never explore even the tiniest fraction of it

If all it takes is a black dot on a screen to make you say intelligent aliens exist and they're here on our planet, your and idiot.

I've watched the video, retard. Go ahead and explain how this CONFIRMS extraterrestrial life. Again, I don't deny that the chances are there (however small), but this isn't unmistakable evidence for anything other than something that's apparently flying and that was captured on camera
>evidence: the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid

t.smoothbrainlet

even if we weren't alone it doesn't matter because we'd never come in contact with other lifeforms anyways

desu the only alternative to earth-like life carbon based life is silicon based. It's the only element that could reasonably replace carbon, and if the life is carbon based its almost certainly gonna end up like something here on earth (most likely a freaky extremophile or something like that)

Just admit you don't understand the very basic concept of evolution. You are the kind of guy who thinks that evolution implies every animal species is headed for becoming a human and whatever comes beyond us.

Nothing is important in life, and the infinite, vast nature of the universe you're speaking about should tell you that. We're nothing, an insignificant pimple on the ass of a tiny rock that's only here temporarily.

There's plenty of other planets with life and plenty of other civilizations killing themselves shortly after reaching their industrial revolution. That's what's truly depressing if you ask me, we can't ever meet and we all die on our small rocks. There might be a civilization somewhere lucky enough to have two habitable planets in their solar system, but even assuming they do and manage to populate the second one without dying immediately to bacteria or other environmental hazards nothing says space travel at a bigger scale is even possible and even if it was it could take eons to get to another civilization that didn't kill itself yet. Efforts are probably better spent preserving the planet you have and if they realize that they will just give up in space at least until they get very good at robotics, and that's another story entirely and might kill them as well.
If there's an alien lifeform capable of space travel out there it's probably an AI, assuming a smart enough AI can in fact be created. It doesn't have the problem of acceleration crushing its body or old age killing it before it can reach another solar system.

I like to believe that no species that ever achieves intelligence and self-awareness will ever explore the cosmos. Why? Because intelligence always has a species discover virtual reality and how to manipulate their brains to experience whatever they want to experience before FTL travel ever becomes a tangible reality. Why bother with exploring the universe and developing such hard technologies when you are advanced enough to simulate an infinite amount of realities and live the rest of their lives in constant fantasy? Yes, I'm saying every intelligent species eventually connects themselves to the Matrix, willingly. And so they stay in their home planet forever because there is no reason to leave it. No reward that can't already be simulated through virtual reality with much less effort.

... You don't believe in radio satellites? Tell me, how do you think the internet works?

Titan has methane oceans and is considered a candidate for life.

Europa is the moon that has a deep liquid water ocean underneath it's icy surface. While it likely lacks a hot core like Earth does, the gravity from Jupiter causes the planet to warp and pull which keeps the water below the surface liquid. Scientists estimate that the ocean under Europa is so deep that the pressure likely makes the water at it's most extreme depths a sort of pressurized jelly, too much pressure for it to be a proper liquid, but its also not a solid.

A lot of this is speculation because we'e never landed anything on Europa. It's probably the most interesting body in the solar system.

Theres a decent movie about it called Europa Report.

where did you get this pic of me?

Hopefully, the Matrix we humans create will have been worth the weight.

I think the creepiest explanation for the fermi paradox is that there ARE plenty of intelligent races out in space, but that they all keep deathly quiet. The reason? it boils down to three rules:
1) All life wants to survive
2) There is no way to know whether any life encountered will or won't want to destroy you.
3) Therefore, striking first is the best and sanest option, annhilating any lifeform detected before it has a chance to retaliate.

It's called the dark forest theory and makes you wonder who might be listening out for us out there in the stars

This is true. Nobody will ever want to live in "reality" once they get a taste of the infinite godlike pleasure and satisfaction simulation. However there's no reason why we won't continue to invent and improve past that point. When you're in the pleasure world nothing will feel like work anyways so I doubt industry, engineering and automation will ever stop.

Mars has ancient riverbeds, titan currently has oceans, rivers, lakes, rain. Pretty cool stuff

Eh, if you have access to everything then everything is pointless.

Life is only worth living because of the struggles attached to it. If you just had everything you ever wanted youd get bored quickly. You can't have highs without lows.

actually that's not necessarily true, europa(moon) can potentially have life underneath its ice surface

That's retarded. the real answer is that space is just so unimaginably mindfuckably HUGE that finding other life would be like me asking you to find a specific grain of sand on the entire earth without telling you where it is.

Aliens could be next door in a nearby solar system, they could be in the same galaxy as us, or maybe the closest aliens are 1,000,000 galaxies away. The last option is the most likely.

>We’re in a weird spot in history where we aren’t seeing anything that ground breaking
Nigger we live right at the start of the space age & the digital age this is one of the most revolutionary time periods in human history. In the span of a lifetime we have a worldwide information network and computers in our pockets and we have probes all across the solar system

Everyone would already be dead if an object that large was so close to earth. Gravity is a thing. There would be gigantic tsunamis and earthquakes

Its about mass not size.

In that case it would be dead because the moon is more massive and therefore has stronger gravity.

>Nobody will ever want to live in "reality" once...

Native Europeans /always/ want to. That is to say, it is inherent to the spirit of the Native European man to always choose to live in a painful reality over living in a pleasant lie. Only by blinding his eyes through countless layers of trickery and distractions can he be deceived into living in a lie and living for pleasure -- and /that/ can no longer be called a /choice/ as he at that point isn't even aware of an alternative. With time, however, this attempt at caging him fails, in the same manner as submerging an inflated ball fails to sink it regardless of how long of a time it is held beneath the surface of the water, as deep inside he knows -- as his genes know; as he is constantly reminded by his forebears who reside within him -- the truth; and knows something is wrong, and thus he seeks and finds the way out, and triumphs over the deception and its architects.

It only seems that way because our frame of reference is biased. The conditions which allowed life to arise here are literally the only conditions we know about.

Out there in space there is nothing. Stack together ten thousand of your lifetimes and in all of that time you'll find the same nothing that you started with.

How do we know there is no dark matter there? Dark matter, by definition, emits no detectable radiation or light of any kind, doesn't it?

So how did energy first come into existence?

You're so cool my dude

I thought dark matter eats regular matter. I'm retarded though.

Whatever 'cycle' the universe goes through, if any, I'm sure is more abstract than that and probably too complex for us to understand with our current biology

No, but the universe is so large nothing will likely ever meet anything else. For example, iirc one of the satellites we launched decades ago is literally just passing by pluto

why does it look 3d while it pans around? it has a parallax effect

It's the most comforting Theory. The only problem is that there is currently no reason to believe that gravity will win over dark energy

Nobody knows. And we won't for a long time. You have to realize the scale of the question you're asking.

No, that's antimatter, user. Dark matter would be sort of the neutral point between matter (positive spectrum) and antimatter (negative spectrum)

Something or someone not bound by the Law of Conservation of Energy.

Gravity

No. Dark matter is matter, it just doesn't interact with normal matter or light other than gravitationally. We can see how it warps space-time into itself. We just can't see what it looks like or how it got there or do anything with it other than look at it indirectly

Oh, that's useful information. I didn't realize it was a kind of spectrum, always figured it was sort like light versus dark, good vs evil.

Trying to understand where subatomic particles and energy come from is always a field I am interested in, but also afraid of the answers if any.

Why does everyone always get bummed by the fact that the universe is so big and there’s literally no chance of seeing even 1 billionth of it when we have a whole solar system filled to the fucking brim of untapped resources right here?

Makes sense. Interesting if it's true that we have confirmed there's no dark matter there.

Eh, I used the spectrum thing as an analogy. I'd say the whole thing is far more abstract than that. I just like seeing it as a spectrum because matter interacting with antimatter annihilate each other, so they are polar opposites, whereas dark matter, as I said, can't even be seen, and we needed some extremely small-scale experiments to confirm its existence at all in the first place, so it sort of sits in an hypothetical middle that doesn't cause any evident effects on most spectrums.

What is the actual nature of vacuum?

That sounds a simple question, but it certainly is not.

We think of vacuum as ‘nothing’. Yet, we give this ‘nothing’ a name. We call it vacuum. In simple terms we think of it as being a volume where there is no matter, no atoms, floating within it.

But we can measure space, we can imagine a volume measuring 1 cu.m. or ten million cu.m. So if we can measure it, how can it be truly nothing? It must be something, mustn’t it? Because we can measure it. We can go and float in it in a space suit. So how can it be truly nothing?

We are caught in the limitation trap of our language. Perhaps a mathematician can define to another mathematician what a vacuum is. But for the rest of us, we cannot.

Well, I have come up with an idea.

I propose, for the sake of argument and description, that our universe may simply be the three-dimensional interface between two 4-dimensional objects or “universes”. That word “universe” is so limiting that I prefer to just say ‘object’, but that doesn’t indicate the necessary scale does it. How about “universe-sized object”?

Consider two things that you can imagine.

Consider that the interface between two 2-dimensional planes is a 1-dimensional line. We can imagine that. No problem. Just imagine that you have two playing cards lying on the top of a table. Imagine that these cards have no thickness, so that they are truly 2-dimensional. You can imagine that they can contain 2-dimensional shapes within them/on them. You would see the shapes drawn on the plane surfaces. Now, imagine that you slide the two ‘cards’ so that their edges touch. The interface along their touching edges is as 1-dimensional line. It has length, but no other dimension of size. Yet it can contain things that you could see as marks along its 1-dimensional length.

Attached: Unit 01.png (568x427, 231K)

the steam version has VR support (which is very good)
dunno if there are any differences besides that

I didn't know anything about that. I played it years back when it was some weird demo online.

So now, we need to move up a dimension and to consider the interface between two 3-dimensional objects. Let is take a couple of cubes the size of shoe boxes. Lets imagine these two cubes sitting on a table top, and we slide the cubes across the surface and bring them together. Now the interface between the two cubes would be a 2-dimensional edge junction. You will remember that the edge of a 2-dimensional object had no thickness, and the meeting junction between two 3-dimensional box surfaces also has no thickness. It is a genuine 2-dimensional surface. There are atoms on each side of the junction, but nothing within it.

Thus, the interface between two 3-dimensional cubes is a 2-dimensional plane surface. We can imagine that also. It is straightforward.

Now we move on to something that we can imagine but which we cannot visualise. Yet.

The interface between two 2-dimensional objects is a 1-dimensional line. The interface between two 3-dimensional cubes is a 2-dimensional plane. Therefore, following those two in a sequence of logic, what must be the interface between two 4-dimensional objects? Answer: a 3-dimensional interface. That’s our universe!

That conclusion is based on the extrapolation of limited but impeccable data.

Now we find that difficult to visualise. Very difficult indeed. Actually, impossible. Why is it impossible for us to visualise it? Because we have never been into a 4-dimensional environment from which we could look down at a 3-dimensional interface.

No, but I am suggesting that we might actually be like those marks on the 1-dimensional interface, or on the 2-dimensional interface. We and all matter in our universe are just marks on (or in) a 3-dimensional interface environment.

It is quite possible, therefore, that our universe as we know it lies between two 4-dimensional structures (universes). It is consequently possible that the matter that we observe in our universe is simply like scum floating on the top of a pond surface, only in our case, it is floating within the 3-dimensional ‘surface’.

And, we can more easily imagine how electromagnetic waves can propagate if we can stretch our imaginations to conceive of vacuum as being the actual 3-dimensional interface between two 4-dimensional universes, and electromagnetic waves are 4-dimensional disturbances running along the 3-dimensional interface in which we live.

And, finally, which I have never heard anyone propose before, let’s ask ourselves how we created the 1-dimensional line. We placed two 2-dimensional surfaces against each other. And how did we create a 2-dimensional interface? We put two 3-dimensional cubes next to each other. So, perhaps our universe was simply created when two 4-dimensional objects were placed next to each other*. That’s all we are. An incidental interface.

okay now what if you examined the weight and it had no label and due to its materials and density you theorized it should weigh 25 pounds but it was 40 after weighing it. the answer you're fucking dumb and your analogy sucks harder than your mum on my dick

What do you mean by time alone? Time passes through all three dimensions and the only constant thing about bumping up a dimension is that a shadow is the same as matter in the dimension lower than it. Ie. a second dimension being would cast a first dimension shadow and a fourth dimensional being would cast a third dimensional shadow

Well, all three dimensions are bound by time, right? So if time is a force that has dominion over our 3rd dimension, isn't any given moment in our universe just a shadow of the larger infinity that encompasses all time?

why are those stars never seen in any actual pictures of space?

A 4-dimensional interpretation of relativity is that everything has a finite amount of energy within spacetime. Almost all of this energy is being used to travel through the time dimension while an insignificant amount is used to travel through the 3 spacial dimensions. The faster you go through space, the more of your energy is redirected from time movement to spacial movement. Hence, time flows slower in your frame of reference. c, the speed of light, is the speed at which all of your 4D energy would be used for spacial movement and you would cease to experience any movement through time. Of course, this is impossible for any object with mass because the energy expenditure necessary to increase your velocity grows exponentially.

Wow, Central Park was that much of a shithole back then?

Light can only travel so fast. That's what lightspeed is. 299,792,458 meters per second. There are about 31 million seconds in a year. So over the course of a year, a particular instance of light would travel 299,792,458 meters every second, over 31 million times. I'm not gonna bother with the math, but that's the gist of what a lightyear is.

Now, you can imagine the shining light of a distant star as like, a bullet. Since light can only travel so fast, the light we are seeing (the bullet) has to travel many, many lightyears for us to actually see it with our own eyes. That bullet of light departed it's star many years ago, and only just now arrived for your viewing pleasure. Many of those stars in the sky are so far away, in fact, that at this moment in time, they have already gone supernova and died a long time ago. Only now has their light, bound by lightspeed, reached us. The night sky is full of dead stars.

You should have learned all this in school bro.

life in the universe, almost certain

complex, intelligent life, hard to say, i look at our little blue ball and it almost looks like a fluke, we are only certain life exists on earth in our solar system, mercury and venus and hellish rocks, mars became inhospitable billions of years ago, we dont know if it was hospitable long enough to develop life, the universe must certainly be filled with trillions of such failures, our star is not too young and not too old, jupiter protects us from being bombarded constantly by comets and asteroids, giving life some respite, and even after all of this, after all stars aligned and every single piece is in place, what do we get? humans have existed only the past 200000 years, anything even resembling civilization or atleast complex societal organization? that probably started only 12k years ago give or take, when the first temple was built

if life were so ordinary, why do we know only for certain only one planet in our system hosts it? if intelligence was common, why are we alone on this rock, if civilization was inevitable, why did we spend 200k years living in ignorance?

ive read some archaeologists believe at one point there were only a couple thousands humans left on the planet, we were an endangered species, humans couldve ended there

what if life is a fluke? what if complex life is a double fluke? what if intelligent life is a triple fluke? what if civilization is a quadruple fluke?

most worrying of all, what if statistically speaking, civilized life only lasts say, 100k years, then for one reason or another, vanishes, you know how insignificant 100k years are in a galactic scale?

civilized life couldve emerged dozens of times and we wouldnt know it, since they wouldve been far gone after we became uplifted

I've always thought this was kind of dumb. Just because we haven't seen life doesn't mean it's not out there somewhere. It's saying that, if life exists in the Milky Way, it probably would have reached us by now, when there's no reason to assume it would be anywhere near advanced enough or even interested in searching for other lifeforms. Also, it's only in relation to the Milky Way, not the entire universe. Even if there's no other life in the Milky Way, saying that that means there's no other life in the universe is like saying there's no life on Earth because you picked up a single piece of sand and didn't find an ant on it.

Life on earth very likely sprang up from simple chemical interactions between elements that are fairly uniformly distributed across the galaxy and the universe so it'd be extremely unlikely that the pattern formation that came into play here somehow magically wouldn't elsewhere, leading to self-replicating organisms that then became subject to natural selection and a few billion years later all the life that exists today.
The only way we could be alone is if somehow that first step would be cosmically unlikely to happen and Earth would just be an early example with other places following later, but it's equally likely we're latecomers. At least we know that the uniform distribution of chemical elements that make life possible existed when the universe was roughly ~10B years old so it's not likely Earth is the only place it happened then.

I don't see a reason to end it unless I can create something better after.

alright fucknuts, just because you're using all the energy of a star doesn't mean that energy disappears into holodeck orgies and hypersonic bum ticklers. It gets transformed into waste heat. Now, you can stack shells to capture that heat and generate more power from it, but with diminishing returns, and eventually you still have to radiate all the energy of the star. It'd just be infrared.

Because there is actual discussion

The chance of life elsewhere in the universe is actually pretty good. The chance of COMPLEX life, however, is a different story.

Our advanced version of your 'machine learning' only needs a few seconds to sift through your communications and extrapolate how to perfectly translate what we want to say into an understandable and compatible form for you that is indistinguishable from speaking to another human

Why, why would random atoms and molecules end up repeatedly trying to create bigger and bigger clusters of themselves and things close to themselves
Is it by design? Of the four forces, gravity is the one with the most in common with life: it's trying to get everything together
Is life just another way for the universe, for reality, to get all its shit back together in one place like it was before the big bang?

Lmao no, i LITERALLY make everything become ONE (or two).

We’re never going to agree when talking about vidya. But since we all like vidya and have similar frames of reference because of that, we can have good discussions on tangential topics like this. Sort of like how Yea Forums has great meta threads.

Generally they don't though. The entropy of the universe always either stays the same or increases. Sure stuff here might be nicely packed together, but the universe is still expanding and stretching into infinite nothingness faster than gravity can clump stuff together.

You're lucky to find any sort of comfort in this thread. I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about being devoured by one of those moving black holes roaming wildly around the milky way.

>eight billion light-years from Earth, in a galaxy called 3C 186, astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole that got kicked off its throne. Now it's rocketing through space at a speed of almost 5 million miles an hour.
independent.co.uk/news/science/nasa-supermassive-black-hole-discovery-a7650656.html

Considering the scale of the universe the likelihood of that is incredibly low. Just like when when the Milky Way collides with Andromeda, we still really shouldn't have about collisions or anything.

You could and people have made similar arguments for and during any point in the past few hundred years.
>too early/late to explore the earth
>too early/late to witness "the" (a) revolution
>too early/late to discover an element/invent flight/fight nazis/whatever

Besides, exploring space in all likelihood will never be as "easy" as your Star Trek/SW/Mass Effect/etc. at least not before tech is advanced by about 10,000-1M years by which time the entire concept of experience and consciousness will likely be more akin to mass parallelized data collation and processing by beings more closely resembling computers or superintelligences. Or in other words, just enjoy Star Trek TNG/whatever for what it is and be glad you're some small part of the cosmos intelligent enough to have awareness at all. At least there's plenty of stuff happening to experience right now, total destruction is at least seemingly less probably right now than it was during the first five decades of the 20th century (I think) and it is quite remarkable we're all able to converse like this from across the globe.

Also tech is advancing much more rapidly than is obvious to the casual observer, while Silicon Valley focuses on social media adbux or whatever money printer du jour there are literally countless scientists advancing our understanding of stuff, creating new types of materials that will enable inventors to create crazy new stuff (including stuff related to spaceflight and survival/colonization/etc.).

If anything we're in a weird spot in history where stuff is advancing so rapidly we take it for granted or are simply distracted by an unprecedented amount of distractions available at our fingertips.

>entropy of the universe always either stays the same or increases

This itself proposes a paradox, because this assumption, based on very little, could be considered a self-fulfilling prophecy if we put any stock in it for very long.

I've heard some interesting theories of how it's possible that the universe expands to a breaking point and sort of snaps back on itself like a rubber band and just implodes on itself. We still have so much to learn about how the galaxy works. And we'll probably never know the exact specifics no matter how much our brains evolve.

do you guys think that other civilisations eventually just upload their brains into a supercomputer that simulates them a perfect world? you'd basically be a god in your own world, no need to fly to other planets because why should you? life in a matrix would be a million times better

Well that's not exactly viable if you want your species to survive millions of years (or billions) of years into the future. Every planet will eventually die, if you're not researching space travel and living in a supercomputer instead, that's an eventual end for that species.

I hope kurzweil is right and we've got brain digitization before my meatbag expires. Just chuck me into orbit so I can fuck around growing giant trees in zero g

You're using the fallacy of just because something is a logical possibility, then it follows it has the same logical probability. For example, one of your explanations is that it could be the result of a faulty camera. If that's indeed a possibility, it's on you to provide a clear example of such an event occurring due to a faulty camera, otherwise that explanation is useless and makes you a denier, not a skeptic, as you're looking to dismiss it, not investigate it.

After reading so many of the "good" UFO stories, it really gets tiresome when people just ignorantly dismiss it as anything but the proposed explanation, despite their alternative explanations sometimes being less realistic than the one originally offered. Ultimately when these people run out of alternate explanations, they accuse the witness of simply lying. If there was more than 1 observer, then they were both lying or hallucinating.

they're faked

Exactly. We're finding plenty of exoplanets inside the habitable zone of their parent star(s). The rest is mostly our subjective interpretation because we're (still) here to muse about it, it's very likely cosmic cataclysms have already ended entire planets filled with life before our ancestors even started walking upright, and life on Earth so far managed to survive plenty of crazy stuff even if we were 'shielded' from most of the dangerous asteroids and whatnot by the gas giants. I think the universe is teeming with life and 'intelligent' tool-using life is a near-inevitable event even if it can take billions of years but that's nothing more than an educated guess.

well if the rate at which things are spreading out is increasing but gravity is staying the same, it seems to me more that everything will just become perfectly spread out until it's all indistinguishable. I'm no physicist though so maybe that's not right

Based

that's not even educated though
life is much more rare than you are assuming
like way much more rare

It's nice to think all that stuff is out there, almost brings a tear to my eye. I'm glad I'm able to live this life, regardless of the sadness anons, good times outweigh the bad even if they are in lesser quantity, what an honor to be here ,you know?

Won't happen. No such thing as "digitization" of the original. Even if you were to recreate your entire neural network, it's a copy of yours, and that's it. It's not you. Theres no way to "take" your neurons and "transfer" them digitally. I can't even conceptualize that. The closest we would get is that your brain is relieved of all aging related illnesses, energy is received by taping into the background energy field present in the universe so you don't rely on external sources, and that everything except your brain is replaced with a mechanical body that's also relieved of degrading over time. And that scenario is most definitely not happening in our lifetime.

That's not true though, we currently don't know how common life is in our universe. But what we do know, is that there are many planets in our local neighborhood alone that have the potential to host life. So if that's the case, why not the rest of the universe? Even if all the stars align, there should be plenty of planets out there that host life. Intelligent life is something else entirely, but life, yes.

Thanks user.

I think the intended point was this: the object seen in the video in question is so hard to properly describe, that the difference in probability any one explanation may have with others becomes irrelevant as a whole. There are so many unaccounted-for variables in that footage, that if you can easily reject the idea that it's a faulty camera due to the lack of proper supporting evidence, the same happens with it being evidence for extraterrestrial life, since it has nothing supporting it either.

Let's assume that, of the explanations that can be given for what that object is, some extraterrestrial contraption is the most likely (but not proven completely to be the case, obviously). Does it mean we need to accept the conclusion that it is indeed some extraterrestrial contraption because of it? Pretty sure not, because no scientific method has been followed with this at all. As such, not even the most likely explanation holds any weight. That user provided that image and video to attempt to affirm that extraterrestrial life has made it to Earth, or has been close enough to see with our current technology. But it's clear there is nothing to actually support that idea. What is evident is some shadow or figure showing up, flying presumably against the wind, and... that's it. Does it completely disprove that it is evidence of extraterrestrial life? No, it doesn't do that either. That's the issue with this whole thing. It provides basically nothing.

Gamma ray bursts have already been theorized to have hit earth multiple times, one of them possibly already caused an ancient mass extinction.

Yo, real talk, I think there is a higher being that made all this life happen on this planet, and I don't think that necessarily contradicts evolution either, I like to keep it simple: The fact that we're here is so astronomically unlikely, that it's safe to assume an intelligent being has their hands at work. In my opinion no higher being with evolution playing a key part, is less likely than a higher being existing with evolution playing a key part, There's no real point in going into any kind of religious doctrine with this, that would only complicate it.

At the comprehensive scale of the beginning of the universe, I'm not sure logic and cause and effect quite apply any more.
The answer might literally be 'because it couldn't not happen'.

The absolutest raddest theory of black holes I've seen is that singularities don't actually exist, all the matter that gets pulled in beyond the event horizon is being compressed into a "quark star" and the black hole will eventually "rebound" similarly to a supernova event. But we've never observed this (or even had the opportunity to) because the extreme time dilation makes this process take aeons from our frame of reference even though it should happen near-instantly (in astronomical terms) from the reference of the "star"

The prospect of learning "why" the universe exists can only be answered once we learn definitively "how" which suffice to say we probably will never learn fully.

Hellstar Remina is also god but it turns into outright comedy by the end, which really threw me off.

All the games involving space are. The moment you realize that everything of value will accelerate apart faster than you can reach it without some FTL hack is when true horror sets in.

Tfw no alien gf

tell me more plz. I wanna play this game but I need to prepare myself first. I've seen the tornado planet, the sand planet(s) and the webms posted in this thread with the sentient goo and black hole looking thing. The black hole looked spooky enough, but not that bad compared to the tornado planet or even fucking around with Space Engine VR. What is the spookiest shit in Outer Worlds in your opinion?

yeah, I feel the same sometimes. I guess how you see the world will always vary depending on how you feel, but if you always come back to the same thoughts it means there's something in you that will never change. weird brain shit.

If you're really asking, it's called self-organization, pattern formation or the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction. See this about 15-20 minutes in:

There's a planet with a wierd seed in its center, that's actually an entrance to a pocket dimension that's just gray and empty.
And if it isn't unnerving enough for you, it's populated by space anglerfishes twice the size of your ship. There's a lot to spoil about it and it's scarier than I made it sound. Every planet is pussy shit in comparison because most of them are actually pretty harmless.

i player kerbal space program and i can assure you that "flying saucers" and shiet DO NOT WORK with the current laws of physics
