Is Alien ‘Life’ Weirder Than We Imagine: Who Is Out There?

Ғылым және технология

If we want to discover alien life out there in the universe, we first need to figure out where to look-and what we're even looking for. Will it be biological like us? Could it be artificial, or take some other form we haven't yet considered? And how do we find something so fundamentally different from ourselves? In this program, scientists devise plans for searching for beings beyond Earth while they grapple with the very definition of life.
PARTICIPANTS: Lisa Kaltenegger, Caleb Scharf, Susan Schneider, Sara Walker
MODERATOR: Nicole Stott

    I like the moments when it feels like we're listening in on a brainstorming session rather than a fairly choreographed set of lectures. I kind of miss that from the earliest years of the WSF, although that can also go off the rails as happened at some previous WSFs. It provides a more intimate feel, a deeper sense of immersion, like we're part of the discussion rather than the target of it.

    It also shows how we are social creatures to the bone and how a few can effect the many I was working at walgreens at the time and there were a few selfish ppl with coupons who came in getting more tissue than they needed. Then there was a story on the news about a toilet paper shortage and that's when ppl really went crazy and even ppl who were calm before and not panicking still needed toilet tissue so they try to get some too. Next thing you know barely any toilet tissue for anyone and were forced to put a limit on it cause ppl wasn't acting right along with media sensationalism causing ppl to panic more.

    I have a feeling that once a civilization has figured out a way to make out into space for the long haul and be able to adapt to its harsh environment they instead opt to just travel indefinitely through out the universe. By doing so, they are not trapped with having to “planet hop” every time they outgrow their environment. If they can figure out a way to harness energy while traversing the universe then it’s probably limitless where they can travel if they wish. It’s my belief that planets are like nests for birds once they figure out they don’t necessarily have to stay in one they fly away to discover the world beyond the nest.

    By that logic it makes more sense to upload your mind into a computer and live until the end of the universe. If you get in a vehicle and just drive with no destination you will eventually get into an accident, have a breakdown, or encounter hostile beings. Humanity has tried this before exploring the oceans. You do not want to meet beings more advanced than you.

Okay? And I wouldn't describe Susan, or anyone with a degree in philosophy as ditzy; philosophers study intense shit. Every phd says "degree in Philosophy" on it. Did you know that? Did you? If you're not a medical doctor, but you're a doctor, Phd you have a degree in Philosophy Its hard! Especially if you're designing AI or just studying it theoretically. If she's using Modal Logic, which is implemented in AI... (and she mentioned AI a bit) ...that's reeeeally hard Math because you need to understand "Completeness," and Gödels Incompleteness theorem, and Set Theory, and Proof Theory, before you can even take Modal Logic. Look at the Math and Philosophy prerequisites for Modal Logic sometime. Try finding a Modal Logic video on KZread that you can follow. Even the ones that are 12 minutes long. Watch one and then tell me what a ditz philosophers are. After that you might gain some appreciation for how quickly the brain gets fried out from Mathematical notions.

    If one simply takes into account the 'life' factors we already know, there can be no doubting the existence of much more advanced 'intelligent- life' out there somewhere. In terms of 'evolution' we have only just relatively left the caves. And - if we don't manage to annihilate ourselves within the next one hundred years or so - we too will be exploring the outer reaches of the cosmos. Other 'beings' out there already could easily be in virtually any form we could imagine as intelligent-'life' could evolve in an unlimited number of ways.

    Humans From Earth Have most likely already been Space traveling For centuries, Probably Wayyyy Longer. It's Classified Because Common People Are Incredibly Wild And unpredictable At Times And Make The Most Unwise Decisions. Knowledge Is A Weapon. Weapons Destroy. Can't Trust One Who Knows too much unless They Are 100% Righteous/Pure Or Controllable. Humans Are Dangerous. Even The good ones make the Gravest mistakes and decisions. So they hide things from us. More Likely to protect themselves from us. We might not bend to their agenda and will if we know too much. They maybe fear that we will combat them too successfully....All Life Is Strange To Me But Every Being From Every Reach Of The Multiverse has their Flaws. The Job Is To Try And eliminate The Flaw. They Want To Master Absolute Perfection and be the top dog. I Believe Greed Is The Culprit For many Of them. Most of Them focus on dominance/control instead of enlightenment and pure Intentions. Mose Of Them Are Corrupt in heart. Few Of Them Are Honorable/Righteous. I Pray For Our Souls, us who are Enslaved and Ignorant to Truth and peace.

So the universe - even our solar system - could be teeming with life without us being able to realize it because we're not able to recognize it. If we didn't know of vira already, likely we would not consider it a lifeform if we encountered it in space but instead see it as a precursor for life.

    Another issue with viewing these stars and planets that are so far away is the issue of time. We are basically looking into the past at some of these planets that are far away. So seeing precursors of potential habitable planets, that are on planets millions of light years away, could now at this time be as advanced as we are. Our timeframe of viewing things is so small in the grand scheme of things that the opportunities of finding things in the future is very exciting I believe.

We know the distance of the sun to the earth and can calculate how long the light from the sun to reach the earth would be about 8 minutes. That means that when you look at the sun, what you are actually seeing is the sun of 8 minutes ago. Our furthest planet in our solar system Pluto, is around 4 hours away from earth. So if you get a telescope and view Pluto, you are seeing the Pluto of 4 hours ago. We have estimated that the Milky Way is around 150,000 light years across, and we are closer to the edge of it. So if we were to view some of the furthest stars away in our own galaxy, we are seeing what the stars looked like 100,000 years ago. Because that is how long light/images take to reach us.

Their ability to fly at very great speed and change direction instantly is far beyond our capacity, as is their ability to travel under water in the same manner.

The whole is contained in each of its parts just like a hologram or a single cell contains all the information of our body itself.

    I agree. There are still many alien looking species in the oceans. We need to clean up our mess and we need to observe the fact that we share this earth with many other earthly creatures. Maybe some aliens too but nobody will be living here if we keep on this wasteful trajectory. Each human must do their part to improve what we still have left after all our damage to our earth.

    The sperm is alive, and is given that life and created in mans balls. A woman’s eggs are alive but are created while they are forming in the mothers womb and are not created like sperm to be a living organism. Women are the gestation tubes, not the life creators. The sperm is created, then enters an egg where it gestates, not is given life again. The sperm has the x and Y chromosome, so has the code Info for more eggs to be replicated once inside an egg if the baby will b female, so you see.... your comment was so wrong and commonly assumed it really irks

I would say that there’s enough circumstantial and indirect evidence to suggest a likelihood just based on open circulating material from many different sources. Some of it may actually be direct, but that’s subject to interpretation. For some people, they just know things in ways that others may claim as just someone’s personal belief. And that’s how it should be. But I do understand what you mean.

    I participated in a meditation retreat called “Awakening Wisdom” at Bodhi Meditation in Richmond BC. It’s a standing meditation practice with guidance and movement. The instructions are in Chinese and translated to English. On the second day of the retreat, I could not hear the translation, all I heard was static noise. I turned the receiver off and proceeded to continue the practice observing the movements of the participant in front of me. I saw two flashes in midair in the hall to my left. One went over my head and the other landed on an empty meditation cushion one row to my right and one row behind me. There was an opaque column of light about six feet high. A participant came a few minutes late to the retreat and went and stood on that cushion and both were sharing the same space. I was observing them for a few minutes and went back to my practice. I can see an intensive white flash that was occurring. I stopped and turned back to see what was making the flash. When she was moving slowly or still the opaque column was visible. When she made a faster movement the column of light disappeared and became visible again when she was still or made slow movements. That was the flashing. Th appearing of the column of light. On another day a German lady, Alexandra and I saw this whatever it was. She was repeating my name and pointing at the cushion between the two of us.

    It boggles my mind that it has been just a little over a hundred years since the invention of electricity , discovery of flight etc ( laughable to space and time ) - before then we existed for thousands of years on this planet living by other means of light ie. firefight, candle - light , lamp - light . We also existed for thousands of years living within small groups of our own kind without realizing that our planet was teaming with life ( in forms we could not recognize / see with the naked eye or begin to understand when it was right there - in front of us , on us and on every inch of everything that surrounded us - ie Microbial / bacterial life . We had no idea that there were thousands of other humans sharing this planet with us who were so similar to us but still so different - in colour , race and belief systems . Instead of asking " if life exists in other places in the universe then where is everybody ? " - how about we ask the question." What do we need to do to find life ? " It is intellectually impossible to think that we are the only or most advanced life in our universe when we are still so primitive where we barely have an understanding of our own solar - system and even less about our galaxy ! Even if there is ONLY ONE chance for life in a galaxy - then our universe is teaming with life ( as I believe it to be ) - there are trillions of possibilities for life in all forms and stages - from the very rudimentary to the Super - intelligent .

    Strange experience. I thought it was a helicopter 300 to 400 feet above me story as follows: Four years ago and trying to find out the logic of what I saw ever since. It was 4:30am I was walking the dogs and this light caught my eye. I was not looking up at the sky just walking and the thing (UFO) caught my attention out of the corner of my eye. The craft was so low in the sky, about 500 feet up. When I looked up for the first fraction of a second I thought it was a helicopter, it was coming down. The next fraction of the first second I thought it was a Jumbo Jet. I had no fear that in my mind because it was silent I had nothing to be frightened about? Then I saw a perfect round shiny craft. This is what was coming down on me. I watched then it stopped and moved away towards the north of me. I could no longer see it as trees were blocking my view. I cannot get it out of my head to this day. It is the worst thing to happen to anyone as I don't know how much time I have wasted since then looking for answers. I have this thought that these craft do not fly into our world from outer space. They come from another dimension. If you can see it but can't hear it, does it exist? If you can see it so low in the sky but don't hear a whoosh of the air being blown when it fly’s away then does it exist? I guess the craft has had to come from a different dimension as it has properties that do not make sense in this world. I am still searching for answers but at least I know these craft exist. I have proved that this science exists (to myself) because I have observed it. This has changed my outlook on life and suppose I will take that to my grave. This just shows me that there is more to life than we think.

    @@harmonymomentofbeing5753 Dear Harmony, Very interesting experience. I think I was on a ship only once when I lost a couple of hours while on the desert, but I have no memory of those two hours. I can relate to your struggle with the religious - spiritual confusion, and also I can relate to the "weird shit happening". I think the religious-spiritual confusion is common because telepathic communication is almost like talking to God, but seeing the source of the communication in front of you and knowing the source is not a spirit but a flesh and blood being is confusing. The confusion lasted for me only a matter of weeks or a few months at the most. The "weird shit" happens to me constantly. I call it having one foot in the 3rd dimension and one foot in the 5th. I call it the 5th dimension, but really I mean any higher dimension. Things happen that in our normal 3 dimension world are not possible so they are mysteries, but are possible if we are interaction with higher dimensions or higher dimension beings - people. An example was 4 days ago. I always turn the heat down at night in the winter. Daytime I want the inside temperature at 62 degrees and down to 56 or 58 degrees at night. On the 17th I woke and it was 56 degrees in the apartment - but I had forgotten to turn down the heat the night before and so something was wrong with the heater or the thermostat - in the 3rd dimension. Or - my 5th dimensional friend adjusted the electricity going to the heating system for me. She can do anything with electricity. Example - I set up a "trail camera" to watch my vehicle at night. A trail camera is a camera that is triggered by movement and is intended to take pictures of animals on their "trails". I could not get it to work properly - even sent it back to the factory and they said it was fine. So, I figured the camera was just too far from the vehicle and decided to give up on it, but my ET friend fixed it so it works fine now at the same distance. There are lots of things that are "weird shit" in our normal 3 dimension world that are normal in a 5D world. Does this explanation sound true to you? It seems to me your tall, cloaked friends are keeping an eye on you and you are beginning a wonderful adventure. My ET adventure started 4 1/2 years ago and it keeps getting better all the time. (with some rough spots here and there) Coincidentally, my ET friend is a female about 7 feet tall and very Human looking. Is that coincidence? Thanks for responding to my comment.

    I like to think that spaceships are an archaic notion, and a more elegant solution to space travel would be to send printers to all the interesting destinations, and, from there collect sufficient local resources to print a basic body, or, perhaps, if there's complex enough life, sample and imitate those, where then, any explorers might transmit their digitized consciousness in a subjective instant without all the life support, space suits, food, environment regulation required by a spaceship, and on transmission arrival to a printer destination, print a body without concern of contaminating the local environment, and do an exploration in a body suited for the job, or even pre-adapted as an artificial biological imitation of local life with a human consciousness to do the thing. I'm a little partial to this idea, because it also explains cats and people at Walmart. Are they aliens in Earth Biological bodies printed for the purpose of exploration? :) But, seriously, the base technologies to do this are already here, today, just in their infancy, and lacking the sophistication required that will likely, logically be realized ... eventually. It's a sensible approach to space travel. No space ship or space suits are needed, and we don't contaminate any location that already has life with Earth Germs ... unless we want to. As to that, DNA is information, and the DNA of any, every, and all Earth Life could be stored, in text on a hard drive with these probe-printers, and if we DID want to contaminate/colonize a world, our printer probe could harvest local material and get to printing Earth Life suited for, edited, and tailored for the local environment. Yes, it's certainly super duper Science Fiction right now, but, again, we already have the basics; 3D printing, 3D-bio-printing, AI, a decent understanding of DNA as well as robotics, and all the other associated technology to send printers to interesting places. It's really a matter of continued development toward sufficient sophistication to realize this, as well as patience. How long might that be? With AI assisted technologies, we might, perhaps, according some forecasts, realize "human-level" AI around 2030 -2040. That could certainly help speed up the development of all other technologies. If we don't blow ourselves up before then, then, we might just see. :)

    No, we don't have, at the slightest, the basic technologies to achieve what you're suggesting here. For instance, transferring conciousness. We're nowhere near achieving this. We don't even have a working definition of what conciousness is and how it works. Second, about "printing bodies", no we're not starting to do this as you think. At the current matter of affairs, it's far easier to build spaceships and suits than contemplate what you're saying here.

The topic of discussion is aliens ... and I suggest a more elegant solution that ... aliens could employ. Are you suggesting this concept is impossible? Are you suggesting it's impossible for aliens to be the remaining AI descendants of some previous civilization that made them? Are you suggesting sometime in the next ... several million years, or even thousands, or just hundreds we'll be stuck at our current level of technological development without ANY progress? Try not to get stuck in the mud of what's now. Explore current research, and consider what might could be by projecting the development of such technologies into some distant future. Consider that "aliens", if they COULD travel interstellar distances (something we can't do right now either), that they might, perhaps, have developed more than JUST the bare minimum technological sophistication to Star Wars between stellar bodies in clunky space ships. :)

    I suspect the Drake equation is woefully insufficient particularly in light of recent discoveries within our solar system. The gap between unicellular life and complex life is far to huge to not deserve its own term as it took over half the age of the Earth. What role do disasters play in developing complexity of life on Earth? Does complex life inevitably lead to intelligence or does some additional circumstances need to come into play to force life to become more intelligent than needed as seems to have happened with us? Also we have evidence that the Earth was recently hit by upwards of 17 supernovae from around 30-40 light years away so supernovae aren't necessarily sterilizing. The timing even offers the tantalizing possibility that supernovae might even have been essential for the development of intelligent life on Earth.

What if there are other systems which are beings... but beyond our system definition (of carbon composition or water based or DNA)? The most intriguing system for me is our galaxy. It eats. Regenerates. Moves. Sentient? Sapient? Procreate? Language? If, yes. How do we communicate with this being? Its single cycle of message would take us eons to grasp. Can we study it in that case?

    Benny Lyngdoh Who is to say that *our* laws of physics apply to other extraterrestrial life forms? The problem with theories in astrophysics begins with a faulty premise. An entire epistemological pattern can be reduced to fiction by a simple fallacy found in the premise of any process. We're dealing with a universal reality that is shared with different intelligent life forms, and I believe we rely too much on _our own_ phenomenology to define extraterrestrial life in terms of certaintity.

    Greetings everyone, good video, and thanks to the guest speakers. :) Let me give you a universal definition of life, suspension, and death. Life means a cyclic processor exists and is active in the system (a looping process). All cyclic processors require lots of energy to operate (this is why ATP exists in cells). In any living system, if you stop the processor cycle, everything connected to it will de-animate and freeze up, like a statue. Keep in mind that chemistry doesn’t matter, and replication is optional and done by a living factory. All factories are alive because they contain at least one cyclic processor (the factory process). Stop the factory process and it’s suspended, or stop it forever and it's dead. An example of simple life (a desk fan): Let's use a small electric fan on your desk as an example. If the fan is operating normally, it is "alive". If you stick your finger into a blade, the fan will temporarily suspend operation ("suspended animation"). When you remove your finger, the fan will resume normal operation again (it is alive again). If you significantly damage the fan's components, it will stop permanently (and be "dead", no more spinning). A power supply must exist to drive a processor continuously (it has to eat). In some systems, removing the power supply (in this case, the battery) will also cause damage and kill it. Also, the fan will age over many years, and accumulate enough damage to eventually die of "old age" (it will never spin again). As strange as it may sound, a fan is a simple lifeform. If you want to detect life in the fan, you can hook up a fan-spin-detector, and show a waveform of the fan endlessly spinning (like a doctor hooking up a heart monitor to see if you're alive, or at least your heart is :)). To find the life in any system, just look for the loops. This means you don’t need to find an alien ecosystem just to understand life. Technology already provides such an alternate ecosystem. You can see life everywhere (like robots, drones, turbines, electric motors, electronic processors, software processes, cars, pumps, aircraft, etc.). Technological systems are just as alive as biological ones. When you kill their processors, they die too. Also, in nature vortices are cyclic processors as well (like dust devils). So, dust devils are simple lifeforms too. Although complex life is much harder to get, simple life of all types is much more common. Thanks for listening. ;)

Why spend all these resources on the possibly futile intent of colonizing a planet not made for us when we can create a spaceship or many the size of many cities right here with the capability of expanding that ship into other life harboring places to extend life when the need arises to leave earth. That should be our goal “at least as a preliminary goal” to colonizing life hating planets.
