i don't know if they're dumb. crazy, deluded, misled.......or just trolling for fun....i hope its trolling for fun.....it disturbs me that people may actually believe this ridiculous bullshit

It’s the disturbance that makes us mad. These are the mental types that destabilize things. Inuit Natives would have put these two on an ice floe years ago. They’re useless as-is

there are a huge amount of things we haven't discovered, and until we do, they might as well not exist as far as we're concerned.
as far as we know, the speed of light is the limit, and we'd do well to at least try to break that limit before we look for new means of travel that may or may not exist.
it's going to be passing difficult to tap into anything we do discover for a long time. we have no idea what to even look for. it's hard to study transient phenomenon that happens light years away from you....
how about we work on developing this system, spreading out so the inevitable disaster that hits the earth won't be the end of us as a species?

Humans shit where they eat. Just look at the mess we've made of our home planet and we're barely 200 years into the industrial age.

We need to get our house in order, and we need to be able to get off this rock ASAP in case we don't manage to avoid trashing the place irrevocably.

i am firmly in agreement. we should have the moon colonized already, and be seriously working on terra forming mars. from what i've read, people could be living on the surface without breathing gear in under 100 years. once we have this system colonized and have started raiding our ort belt for minerals and metals, and don't have to fight gravity wells to put craft into space, then its time to start looking for habitable planets.

I've played Terraforming Mars, it's a fun boardgame that expands one's horizons of what's possible.

never heard of it, but sounds like it could be entertaining

Object of the game is to raise the temperature, increase O2 percentage and create oceans. There's a deck of cards full of technologies to help one it more of those objectives. Google it. It's good with 3-4 players.

Board games and aliens? GOOD GOD !! Way to seek out truth, the meaning of life and knowledge of self. Expand your horizons, absorb cultural diversity and cultivate your minds.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(spacecraft)

This is the spacecraft using parallax techniques to detect not only distance and motion of stars but also the potential presence of planets in other around them.

They expect to find thousands of planets.

Future missions might examine the most promising of these for the presence of extraterrestrial life.

That's pretty amazing, don't you think?

..they keep you doped with religion, sex and TV till you so fucking crazy that you can't even see..

Come out of confusion (stop spinning) and stop letting devil's blind you, seek truth, and truth will set you free.
