Default What's wrong with there being ETs (smarter than us none the less)

Just because Venus is somewhat brown dwarf like hot and nasty, isn't
actually all that technically insurmountable, that is unless you're
one of those not quite as smart as a hot rock.

It seems to be the usual topic/author stocking case, whereas the likes
of "jacob navia" and gauntlet of others spewing their faith-based
infomercial physics and science that excludes whatever rocks their
good ship LOLLIPOP, insisting that their all-or-nothing interpretation
which suits whatever faith-based swarm mindset and thereby creation-
only as well as Earth-only crapolla analogy, is supposedly all there
is to behold. Why on Earth can't we have both, the random cosmic
happenstance and later having intelligent design coming in for the do-
everything terraforming effort, that's ultimately responsible for
ending us up in the horrific terrestrial mess that we're in. I for
one would seriously like to associate with and thus blame some weird
or perverted God (especially of one holding offshore bank accounts and
shooting friends in the face) for all of this mess, wouldn't you!

http://groups.google.com/group/alt.a...2cee6511ad960b
Clearly once upon a time (according to our terrestrial all-knowing
wizards of that all-inclusive BB) most everything was star like, as in
extremely hot and nasty as all get out. I'd say for the first billion
years you'd be hard pressed to find much of anything that wasn't
either a star or that of a black hole containing whatever potential of
taking or giving birth to other stars.

As to exactly how many billions of years old this universe actually
is, I do not believe it's recorded down in any terrestrial stone
tablets or within whatever Dead Sea scrolls, nor has the regular laws
of physics come up with a viable game plan that's other than being the
usual hocus-pocus status quo (aka cover thy butt) approved. Perhaps
this is a bigger than BB problem, especially since any form of
revisionism is simply not allowed to stand, even as an honest rant.

I'd actually buy into the latest cycle or mutation of our local
universe as being worth 13.7 billion years. But, since that +/-
whatever age doesn't tell us the average density of a spent star, so
what?

Wouldn't it be a good thing to know what an old dark brown or nearly
black star is worth?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_dwarf
"Typical atmospheres of known brown dwarfs range in temperature from
2200 down to 750 K (Burrows et al. 2001)." This puts Venus just below
the thermal realm of a brown dwarf or spent star.

Venus w/o moon is very much alive and well worth our exploring, as
offering a nifty wealth of planetology that's either newer than Earth
or representing that of a cosmic version of physics that doesn't play
fair or much less by the rules. Either Venus is a somewhat dull brown
dwarf of a spent star, or it's a somewhat newish planet that arrived
into our solar system not so terribly long ago, as perhaps packing and/
or dragging along an icy Selene as becoming our proto-moon that may
have required some degree of lithobraking/(glancing encounter) in
order to stick around (sort of speak).

Interesting that you would bring up the "billions of years" as
the age of the universe. There is a theory of how TIME ITSELF
has expanded since the creation, so that instead of seeing
redshift, we're looking at the time dilating effect from the
early rapid expansion of spacetime towards the gradual flattening
out, like at the top of a funnel.

The "tired light effect" becomes SIMULATED for relativistic
effects (due to the conservation of energy), but is not represen-
ted by anything (and can't be because of symmetry of g_ik tensor,
e.g. Friedmann). In fact, the frequency of light CHANGES with
increasing distance because of time dilation,

v(r) = v_0 * e**[-(4*pi*G*(rho)/(c**2))**(1/2)]r

which means, esp. to those BB enthusiasts, NO EXPANSION, and a
STATIONARY UNIVERSE of all things. The STATIONARY UNIVERSE
APPEARS AS IF IT IS EXPANDING, BUT IT IS NOT: THE SPEED OF
LIGHT IS ACCELERATING OVER TIME!

I have written a modified version of a red-shifted universe
program that calculates age factors, light travel times, object
distances, hubble constant (then & now), speed, and luminosity
distance that can be viewed at:

http://server6.theimagehosting.com/i...N_Exp_Univ.GIF


Most Particle Physicists have become "locked in" to the belief
of an expanding universe, and even seek particle theory to
justify their reasoning. The expanding universe is a theory
espoused by Professor John Archibald Wheeler, but is rebutted
with Einstein's theory of a non symmetric gik tensor.

Refer to http://www.geocities.com/wlodekj/sci/history.htm for details.

***

The aforementioned theory has no reference with current
propulsion technology espoused by NASA, no reference with
any current transportation technology espoused by any
Bureau of Transportation, Interstate, or International
Trade Agreement, no relationship whatsoever with any of
the branches of military or international militaries; no
affiliation with any political party other than the party

Sounds way over my poor old dyslexic head, though you could be more
right than others have been giving you credit for the notion that "THE
SPEED OF LIGHT IS ACCELERATING OVER TIME".

Does our universe have an outer shell or sphere of photons as an event
horizon?

How much older than 13.7 billion do you think our universe is in human
years as based upon our limited perception of the speed of light, or
otherwise based upon the speed or velocity of light "ACCELERATING OVER
TIME"?

What's the speed of light at the very core of our universe, whereas
supposely there's nothing but a void or perhaps the remains of the
initial black hole?

- Is this how the earth was created in seven days - because
those not privy to the physics of pre-solar system formation
would have no idea of the billions of years leading up to
the Sun's creation:

And this is the law and the course of the sun, and his
return as often as he returns sixty times and rises, i.e.
the great luminary which is named the sun, for ever and ever.
And that which (thus) rises is the great luminary, and is
so named according to its appearance, according as the Lord
commanded. As he rises, so he sets and decreases not, and
rests not, but runs day and night, and his light is
sevenfold brighter than that of the moon; but as regards
size they are both equal.

(The Book of Enoch, Chapter 72, v. 35 - 37)

Notice the "sevenfold" brighter of the sun to the moon,
meaning it takes the light of seven moons to equal the
brightness of the sun, possibly referring to creating
the earth in "seven moon days", which, according to the
position of each "moon day", would have to equal seven
years, since the exact position of the moon has
to repeat itself once a year.

Since it takes an average of seven years for each cell to
become replaced, a new creation exists once the whole
being becomes regenerated. IMO, this description was what
was meant by "The earh was created in seven days".

We were created in the image of an inhabitant that was
meant to populate this corner of the galaxy because of the
type of regeneration we are environmentally used to;
without a G2V sun, chances are that our frail DNA might
require some modification - but a question remains - Why
do some of the aliens not look like us at all? Answer:
Perhaps THEIR DNA has adapted to a different solar
environment - amounting to the huge eyes, frail bodies, etc.

A time traveller from the past might have a tendency to
"glow" a bit if they were travelling to/from a galactic
reference frame (i.e.,see previous program w.r.t.the "Coma
Cluster") with a slower light speed. By the same token,
it may be part of the "master plan" by the Elohim to seed
a modified species of human in different parts of the
UNIVERSE (notice I didn't say "galaxy" because a galactic
"boundary" would also limit the ability to adapt the
designer species genetically).

Apparently, there are those who continue to think that
"they are it", despite all the best plans that a blood
sacrifice prepared to offer.

Rather than continuing with a faithful exploration,as
well as expansion towards those extrasolar G2V earth-
like environments, most of those George Soros clones
would rather condemn any soldier fit to battle the
enemies of their liberally-perceived "expansionist"
than admit that the universe was (and is) a much larger
place to inhabit.

1/7 = 14.3% albedo, of which could have been the earthshine extra

over at the time.

Them grays could also be ET androids w/o DNA.

Screw the universe, as just our own galaxy is more than impressive
enough.

It's also looking as though red dwarfs could make for a rather good
solar sustained life, especially if that life were limited to the
frail DNA likes of us humans. However, a Venus like planet that's so
well protected by its robust atmosphere could manage quite nicely if
parked a little further away from the likes of Sirius B.

Just one of many complex though otherwise good efforts for sharing the
most accurate of 2D animations on behalf of depicting our local
stellar proper motions, that's entirely relative as to our Sol that
not worth 0.0000001% (a billionth) of what's otherwise every bit as
good or better for having hosted their own locally evolved intelligent
life, getting especially interesting if such evolution of human
intelligence only takes at most a few million years under the right

If one were to look up the sky hundreds, thousands of years ago in the
night, he would see a clear view to the Milky Way, and not just a few
stars.

The first question one may ask: Is there life out there?

If one is influenced in mass belief systems like the God **** the
Catholic Church, he may not ask such questions and assume Earth is in
the center of the Universe. The Catholic Church for two milennia
killed people who brought opposing views, scientists were put to hard
positions. Even today American Christians have a bad view of science,
and they say it on Christian Radio Stations.

In Europe and elsewhere people don't like American mass mentalities in
2007.

That's all 100+% true, and it's only getting worse off by the day.

Even our local KSTW (channel 11) "The Daily Buzz" news program has
been recently terminated because they are not neatly Yiddish enough,
or in other words The Daily Buzz simply wasn't enough of a team
player. Go figure, why all the sudden news media blackout?

If the WHOLE EARTH was the CREATION of an advanced civilization,
where does that place the competitive factions of transpor-
tational infrastructure in the light of ancient prophecy?
The current infrastructure (roadways, bridges, gasoline, oil,
producers,etc.) have ALREADY become the infrastructure
of a BYGONE ERA.

Just because we have those trains of progress that have
literally railroaded us into the police state that currently
exists, is absolutely no reason to believe that a limited
technology can make life any easier in the long run,
that is, if the transnationists continue to "tweak"
the limited technology with the borrowed time of newly
borrowed, freshly washed, and accurately printed,
antiquated capital.

IMO, the "only act in town" that has been legally
forced to comply with the retrograded capital are the
Bush & Co. transnationalists in Iraq. In that sense,
transnationalism has to be a good thing, but I also
sense that, as a result of the war in Iraq, there has
simultaneously been a reduction in our technological
sovereignity, because of our EVER-INCREASING
DEPENDENCE ON THE METERED ENERGY, METERED TELEVISION,
METERED CELL PHONE TRANSMISSIONS, METERED TAXES -
THE MICROMANAGEMENT AND METERING OF RETROGRADE
CAPITALISM HAS BECOME LIKE A

"... VAST ASSORTMENT OF COLORED BEADS WITHOUT A STRING
TO HOLD THEM TOGETHER." [1]

(Fractals at least have a string that holds them
together!!)

BUT WHO HAS METERED THE GROWTH OF BUREAUCRACY??

Yet aren't we becoming not only paranoid, but DELUSIONAL
for the sake of RETROGRADE TECHNOLOGY, and ALSO
IN THE NAME OF THE PERCEIVED NATIONAL SECURITY,
if those who FUND OUR GOVERNMENT ARE FUNDING IT
AT THE LEISURE OF RETROGRADE CAPITALISTS, AS
WELL AS THE CONSTITUENT CRONYS WHO ARE
*BOUGHT AND PAID FOR* IN THEIR LUST FOR POWER???

I COMPLETELY REJECT ANY CANDIDATE WHO DOES
NOT ADDRESS THIS VERY IMPORTANT ISSUE WITH
SOME REAL, SUBSTANTIVE, "OUTSIDE-THE-BOX"
CRITICAL THOUGHT PROCESSES, THAT SHOULD NOT
ONLY ACT AS THE ARBITER OF CHANGE, BUT ALSO
HAVE THE WILL, FORTITUDE, STAMINA, AND INTEGRITY
TO ENFORCE A NEW R & D PROTOCOL, THAT WOULD
FREE THIS NATION FROM ITS DEPENDENCY ON FOREIGN
OIL, EXPAND THE FRONTIER OF SPACE BY LIBERATING
EARTH-TO-ORBIT TECHNOLOGY FROM "RAILROAD
CAPITALISM", AND INSTITUTE A MARSHALL PLAN THAT
WOULD, PER REVIEW, BEGIN TO "REIGN IN" ANY AND ALL
OF THE REDUNDANT TECHNOLOGIES, WITH A MODERNIZED
AND MASS PRODUCED (RETRAINING & JOB-CREATING)
ECONOMIC VERSION FOR A NEW, TRANSPORTATIONAL
INFRASTRUCTURE, THAT WILL MEET THE NEEDS OF THE
21ST CENTURY AND BEYOND.

HAVEN'T HOMESTEADS BECOME SO ATTACHED TO THE
ROADS THAT IT HAS BECOME "EASIER FOR A CAMEL TO
GO THROUGH THE EYE OF A NEEDLE THAN IT IS FOR A
RICH MAN TO ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN"???

IF THE ANSWER IS YES, THEN THE RESULT IS THAT
THE MONOPOLISTIC ENERGY MARKETS HAVE BECOME TOO
BURGEONING, WITHOUT BECOMING LEANLY DIVERSIFIED
ENOUGH IN ORDER TO EXPAND THE TECHNOLOGICAL BASE
WITH REVOLUTIONIZED COMPETITION. THE FED WANTS
TO LIMIT "INDUSTRIALIZATION" BY EARMARKING FUNDS
ONLY AT FOUR PERCENT GROWTH, WITHOUT TYING THEM
TO AN ADVANCED EARTH-TO-ORBIT AND BEYOND
TECHNOLOGY, SO ANY ADVANCE IN THIS AREA WILL
HAVE TO COME FROM OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.!!!

WE'RE BECOMING A NATION OF GLORIFIED ROAD
POLICE, ON A WITCHUNT FOR INHABITANTS WHO
ARE NOT PART OF OUR DRIVING ESTABLISHMENT.

THE STATES HAVE BECOME TOO BURDENED WITH
CORPOATE TRIAL LAWYERS TO PERMIT THE TYPE OF
TESTING AND MARKETIZATION THAT ADVANCED
PROPULSION TECHNOLOGY WARRANTS - THE FAT
MARKETS OF STREAMLINED 'RUSE TECHNOLOGY'
WILL CONTINUE TO EXPATRIATE THE BEST SCIENCE
AND ENGINEERING FROM NOT ONLY THE MARKETPLACE,
BUT ALSO FROM OUR COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES.

THIS TRAGEDY OF HEROS WILL HAPPEN, IF THE
ANTIQUATED, IDEALIST TECHNOLOGY CONTINUES
TO SYLLOGIZE AND BANKRUPT OUR CULTURE.

WE HAVE ALL THE CONSTITUENT ELEMENTS INTER-
NATIONALLY THAT WILL SET THE STAGE FOR A
MASTERFUL TECHNOLOGICAL TRAGEDY:

".. There are in tragedy as a whole, cosidered as a
special form, six constituent elements, viz. Plot,
Character, Language, Thought, Language, and Melody.
Of these elements, two [Language and Melody] are
the media in which they effect the imitation, one
[Spectacle] is the manner, and three [Plot,
Character, and Thought] are the objects they imitate;
and besides these there are no other parts."

The Spectacle is the World Trade Center Disaster.
The characters are Bin Laden, Bush, Cheney, Col.
Betrayas, Saddam Hussein, the Al Queda operatives,
the presidential candidates, and the American people.
The language and melody are the U.S. Media.

The plot is to destroy America, the character is
militaristic, and the thought? The thought
may be the only thing that saves us from a
completely militaristic society, and, at least, is
able to stretch the plot from finishing its course
within the next decade, but that's all. That's all
that's happening here on planet earth. After that,
it's purely a game of survival.

Perhaps smart enough and kind enough ETs (after they stop laughing
their butts off) will eventually come to our salvation before our fat
lady ever gets to sing. At least let us hope so.
