"The meek shall inherit the Earth. And the rest of us will go to the stars." - Omni Magazine
Hello everyone. It has been a while. Though, I have been particularly busy.
There is something different about our ever changing world. I don't know if any of you know this, or if you would even care.. but it has been in my thoughts lately.
Do you believe that we, (humans) could be the only life in existence? Or are we just a small population too far to find other life forms out there in the universe.
That thought has come to my mind many times within the last couple years.
The closest galaxy in the universe to us that happens to be very similar to ours, the Andromeda Galaxy. There is a huge possibility that within the Andromeda Galaxy, there could actually be a planet similar to Earth. This possible Earth like planet, could also have possible life forms on it. Could be primordial life, or intelligent life like the humans on this planet.
You know what? There could actually be more than one planet, maybe dozens. All we have to do is search for them. But there is a problem with all this. There is no way we could know if this is true or not. Why? Because we're in a point of our existence where technology hasn't evolved enough for us to search vast distances.
The Andromeda Galaxy is over 2 million light years away from us. And when we see the galaxy through our primitive telescopes, we're seeing it as it was 2 million years ago. So if there was a way for us to see into the galaxy and find the planets, who knows what we would find. Whatever we see wont be like they are today.
This is not only in account for the Andromeda Galaxy. This is also for any other galaxy, or star system that happens to be light years away.
Just thought I would share.
