Of any humanoids or other intelligent species that's capable of surviving interstellar treks, at least technically should have no problems with remaining stealthy or even capable of infiltrating and mingle within any community of existing life-forms upon any given planet they chose to study or even to populate and commercialize by extracting valuable elements in order to suit their own needs. I don't follow that reasoning at all. You're attempting to extrapolate from some, ex hypothesi feasable, technology to the feasibility of any other technology that might be useful. Sylvia. |

You seem to be okay with excluding and/or obfuscating known technology that could be applied, not to mention what any truly interstellar travel capable intelligence could muster for dealing with that hellish surface environment of Venus or that of infiltrating our planet. Secondly, according to others even of your very own kind, Venus wasn't always as extremely hot, because our sun was originally a much cooler star by at least -25%. BTW; true science is always about extrapolations and otherwise it's extensively a subjective methodology of trial and error on behalf of figuring out or interpreting new stuff. Sorry if that's upsetting you. Are you suggesting, if we mange to get our species of humans onto another planet or substantial moon that's already populated by complex lifeforms, that some of us wouldn't bother to exploit that new world in order to suit their own goals or hidden agendas? |

None of which addresses the point that I raised. Sylvia. Not really, as over the past decade I've pointed out several alternatives for accommodating advanced intelligence on that hellishly hot surface (especially when accommodated within those rigid composite airship-shuttles), with resources and energy to spare. Are you suggesting that the best expertise and technology can't possibly deal with whatever the planet Venus has to offer? Are you also suggesting that Venus L2 isn't sufficiently cool and highly desirable as an outpost/oasis gateway? |

I'm raising doubts about your reasoning process. Sylvia. My deductive reasoning, is that if you were capable of interplanetary travel (not to mention interstellar capability), there's a pretty darn good chance that you'll have the expertise and technology to fit in or infiltrate almost anywhere. For all I know, most of what is represented by GuthVenus is the result of advanced robotics doing their thing. “Guth Venus” 1:1, plus 10x resample/enlargement of the area in question: https://picasaweb.google.com/1027362...79402364691314 http://groups.google.com/groups/search http://translate.google.com/# Brad Guth,Brad_Guth,Brad.Guth,BradGuth,BG,Guth Usenet/”Guth Venus” |
