E.T. Knows that We are Here
E.T.
New Research
Thomas Hair, a mathematician at Florida Gulf Coast University, presented his research to the Mathematical Association of America in Boston last month.
According to his research, if aliens existed, then they certainly would know of our existence by now.
His research was based only on our own galaxy and did not consider any alien life forms in other galaxies.
He has estimated that if an advanced civilization existed on another planet in our galaxy and that planet was older than ours, which is fairly young, then they would have, by now, had time to reach Earth.
- Interstellar Travel a Reality
We will not see the results in our lifetimes but it would now appear that we are seriously looking at multi generation space exploration. Will we at least see the launching of the first mission? What propulsion system will they use and where will the
Our Galaxy
Moving On
He estimated that if an alien had technology, then it would take approximately 500 years for them to then have the technology to reach their nearest star. He then allowed 500 years for their journey; he assumed a speed of 1% the speed of light.
He then allowed another 500 years for them to be on the next planet, before moving on. Using this as a formula, he estimated, that given the age of the galaxy an advanced race would have, by now been able to reach any star in our galaxy.
Avoided
He said he did not know if aliens existed but if they did, given our own ability to study other planets and that they would be more advanced than us, they would by now definitely know of our existence.
He proffered the suggestion that any advanced life forms, may have no interest in Earth as water and anything else they may need for their existence, is far more abundant in space than it is on our planet. Also, by acquiring these things from space, they would not have to deal with the problems of our earth’s gravity.
He also suggested that aliens may only travel along, long established routes, like roads through space and that the nearest “road” to Earth was well away from our solar system.
So, if this research can be believed and aliens do exist, then they are fully aware of our presence here. It also means that they are either ignoring us or at best do not consider it necessary to go out of their way to introduce themselves.
One of the reasons he speculated that aliens would know of our presence here, would be the CFC’s, [Chlorofluorocarbons] in our atmosphere.
Is it possible that the same thing that makes us visible to aliens is the same thing that keeps them away: our pollution of the planet?
- Have We Been Visited by Aliens.
There are many stories of aliens visiting our ancient ancestors. This highlights a couple of them that although they are so well known, are perhaps a little more believable. - Why Life Like Us
Scientists are looking for life in outer space, but are they looking in the right place? - Water on Mars: What Could it Mean?
Now that water has been found on Mars, will this lead to us mining the planet? Or will we find that aliens have beaten us to it?
