Default Reproduction of biospheres and civilizations.

Reproduction of biospheres and civilizations.

Our human Civilization is the constituent part of the Earth's
biosphere. We will speak here about the ways of biospheres
reproduction in cosmos. It is clear that the reproduction of human
civilizations is the constituent and final part of more general
process, - the reproduction of biospheres.
But is that possible?
Let's try to answer the following questions, at first, and after,
we'll try to make some conclusions, according to scientific
definitions and observations.
Is our biosphere a living organism? Or, is it superorganism?
Is human a living organism or a living superorganism?

Biosphere[1].

The concept that the biosphere is itself a living organism, either
actually or metaphorically, is known as the Gaia hypothesis.

James Lovelock, an atmospheric scientist from the United Kingdom,
proposed the Gaia hypothesis to explain how biotic and abiotic factors
interact in the biosphere. This hypothesis considers Earth itself a
kind of living organism. Its atmosphere, geosphere, and hydrosphere
are cooperating systems that yield a biosphere full of life.

Gaia hypothesis [2].

The Gaia hypothesis is an ecological hypothesis proposing that the
biosphere and the physical components of the Earth (atmosphere,
cryosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere) are closely integrated to
form a complex interacting system that maintains the climatic and
biogeochemical conditions on Earth in a preferred homeostasis.
Originally proposed by James Lovelock as the earth feedback
hypothesis, it was named the Gaia Hypothesis, after the Greek supreme
goddess of Earth. The hypothesis is frequently described as viewing
the Earth as a single organism. Lovelock and other supporters of the
idea now regard it as a scientific theory, not merely a hypothesis,
since they believe it has passed predictive tests.

One of the criteria of the empirical definition of life is its ability
to replicate and pass on their genetic information to succeeding
generations. Consequently, an argument against the idea that Gaia is a
"living" organism is the fact that the planet is unable to reproduce.

Organism [3].

In biology, an organism is a living thing (such as animal, plant,
fungus, or micro-organism). In at least some form, all organisms are
capable of response to stimuli, reproduction, growth and development,
and maintenance of homeostasis as a stable whole. An organism may
either be unicellular or be composed of many billions of cells grouped
into specialized tissues and organs. The term multicellular describes
any organism made up of more than one cell.

A superorganism is an organism consisting of many organisms. This is
usually meant to be a social unit of eusocial animals, where division
of labor is highly specialized and where individuals are not able to
survive by themselves for extended periods of time. Ants are the most
well known example of such a superorganism. Thermoregulation, a
feature usually exhibited by individual organisms, does not occur in
individuals or small groups of honeybees... When these bees pack
together in clusters of between 5000 and 40000, the colony can
thermoregulate. James Lovelock, with his "Gaia Theory" has paralleled
the work of Vladimir Vernadsky, who suggested the whole of the
biosphere in some respects can be considered as a superorganism…

It is also argued that humans are actually a superorganism that
includes microorganisms such as bacteria. It is estimated that the
human intestinal microbiota is composed of 1013 to 1014 microorganisms
whose collective genome contains at least 100 times as many genes as
our own. Thus, humans are superorganisms whose metabolism represents
an amalgamation of microbial and human attributes.

The first conclusion: Humans are superorganisms. Planetary biospheres
can also be named the superorganisms, if we will find some proves to
the last missing property, required by the definition of the living
organism, - the ability of reproduction.



Panspermia [4].

Panspermia is the hypothesis that "seeds" of life exist already all
over the Universe, that life on Earth may have originated through
these "seeds", and that they may deliver or have delivered life to
other habitable bodies.

Panspermia can be said to be either interstellar or interplanetary.
Mechanisms for panspermia include radiation pressure (Arrhenius) and
lithopanspermia (microorganisms in rocks) (Kelvin). Directed
panspermia from space to seed Earth (Orgel and Crick, 1973) or sent
from Earth to seed other solar systems (Mautner 1979, 1997) has also
been proposed.

Sir Fred Hoyle and Chandra Wickramasinghe were important proponents of
the hypothesis who further contended that lifeforms continue to enter
the Earth's atmosphere, and may be responsible for epidemic outbreaks,
new diseases, and the genetic novelty necessary for macroevolution.
This extension has also been adopted by proponents of Cosmic ancestry.

In the strongest version of panspermia, life never originated, but
always existed — this axiom would require amending the big bang
theory.

The mechanisms proposed for interstellar panspermia are hypothetical
and currently unproven.



The second conclusion: Official science persistently denies the Steady
State models of Universe and the Panspermia hypothesis, despite the
fact that there are a lot of observations and physical evidences of
these theories. This leads me to the thought that the official science
is some organ of our living Biosphere, which has genetic innate
property, aimed at implementing of the suicidal reproduction of
biospheres.

The third conclusion: Scientists, who are interested in the launch of
the Large Hadron Collider, can be named "the curiosity cells" of our
Biosphere. Scientists, who are crying everywhere about the possible
global risks, can be named “the good reason cells” of our Biosphere.
If the first large group of physics will win, then our Biosphere will
die, as a thoughtless female-animal. If the second very small group
will win, then Biospher will survive and look like a reasonable,
thinking female, able to anticipate the danger.

The forth conclusion: The mechanism for interstellar panspermia is
absolutely clear; it is the explosion of the planet, where the
biosphere had grown to the reproducing age. The method of biosphere's
reproduction is similar to that of exploding cucumber. The more
powerful explosion, - the more reliable reproduction.

Possible detonators of global explosion:

1. Collision of particles with the energy about 1 TeV or higher
per particle.

2. Creating of Bose-Einstein Condensate in the laboratories,
experimenting with the matter under extremely low temperatures.

3. Underground tests of nuclear weapons, which can lead to
thermonuclear detonation of geological stratum of such nuclear fuel,
as KH.

4. Creating the transuranium elements.

How it must look in order to better preserve the seeds of life.
With some part of fantasy.

Magnetic hole absorbs the inner part of our planet. Planet self-
contracts. Oceans cover the mainland by water. Magnetic hole is
growing exponentially and, finally, a huge explosion occurs, which
sends the shell of the Earth's into outer space. All of us, with
grass, cats, fish, tadpoles fly, covered by ocean water, with the
speed of ten times more, than the speed Voyagers. Due to the reduction
of pressure the water boils, transforming into foam, and soon it
freezes. Thus the comets are formed. The temperatures are about
"minus" 150-250 degrees Centigrade. Flies and tadpoles in comets are
in a state of hibernation.

Finally, some comet enters some Earth-like platen’s atmosphere. The
comet splits, and its icy parts drop into warm lakes. There the
comet’s parts are melting. Flies wake up and fly away, some fishes and
tadpoles, too, wake up, and swim away.

The human will appear on this planet on the next stage, when n’th
comet will arrive to this planet, when comet’s shell will melt under
the rays of that star, when human's DNA molecules will subside to that
planet.



The cosmic space has a huge amount of organic substance.

Each year, only in our Galaxy, containing approximately 150 billion
stars, from one to ten civilizations die. Mourning marches, that are,
nova and supernova explosions, play several times frequently. Part of
the nova stars exert repeated explosions. The cause is clear -
magnetic hole, reaching a mass roughly equal to 1/20 of solar masses,
transform into a black hole. Their radii at this mass are equal, and
the transition is accompanied by explosion. Therefore, the Sun will be
eaten in twenty receptions, accompanied by explosions that would occur
with intervals of several tens of years. Supernovae are exploding at
once, because they have thin shells, and magnetic holes fail in
supernovae’s rarefied central parts.



From the letter (slightly corrected).

In his commentary to the article How do we know the LHC really is
safe?, published in NewSientist the 21 January 2009, James Tankers
wrote: "To mitigate possible risk, I would like CERN to agree to
follow Dr. Habil Rainer Plaga's compromise recommendation to increase
energy levels only slowly and examine results before significantly
increasing energy levels further."

James, say me, please, is it possible to prevent sperm ejaculation by
"increasing energy levels only slowly" at the time of sexual
intercourse?

Our civilization is a huge alive superorganism. Organisms must
reproduce themselves. CERN is the possible reproductive organ of our
Civilization. The launch of LHC is the sexual act, leading to the
explosion of Earth, and to the launch of Civilization’s seeds into
cosmos.

We must postpone the act of Civilization reproduction act as far as
possible. The sexual act of our Civilization, which is the launch of
collider, must be forbidden. The “slowly LHC-sex” will not safe us
from reproductive suicide.



Some thoughts and questions.

Is our Biosphere a brainless organism, or it is able to reasonably
think?
What is the Biosphere's brain: governments, religious organizations,
scientific organizations, independent researchers? Can very rarefied
"cells of good reason" prevent or postpone the reproductive suicide of
Biosphere? Who are you, dear reader: "a cell of good reason", "a
curiosity cell", or "thoughtless muscular cell"?
