Very hard to say theres no life outside our planet when you see that ain't it? Allthough I dont think aliens are going to visit us anytime soon. They probably see us as an inferior, child-like species with a puny, fucked-up planet.

more of a thought than anything else, why is it we assume that aliens are more advanced then us, not in an arrogent we are better way, more in an, do we think so little of our own doings...?

^^^I agree. I know for sure there is life on another planet besides ours, however i doubt that they fit the hollywood stereotype of being green and really intelligent. This other form of life can be as small as the oceans plankton or maybe as big as dinosaurs when you look at how big the galaxy is. There is no way that we are alone in this huge universe.

fuckin' newbs... if we were to see an alien it would be a hell of a lot smarter than us, otherwise it couldn've travelled that far... when you think of aliens you reffer to intelligent beings otherwise they're just as insignificant to us as an uvula... of course there's life on other planets, hell, the planet itself is alive if we look from a total objective point of view... we see life solely as one thing, cells etcetera, and our way of seeing it is due to the fact that we're limited by our own organism... so stop with all the philosophical crap cause every point of view is right in it's own way...

Well considering the fact that the earth is 4.55 billion years old, life began 3.7 billion years ago and homo sapiens (modern humans) came about only 200,000 years ago and civilizations started emerging 10,000 years ago and that we've advanced more in the last 100 years than in he whole of human history. You have to consider where and when other sentient being will be in their evolution when compared to humans.

Either these aliens are hundreds of thousands of years to millions of years behind us in technology and evolutions or they will be hundreds of thousands to millions of years more advanced than us. But it is very unlikely that their technologies will be the same as ours. Meaning if we ever meet aliens that are more advanced than us, we won't stand a chance if they decide to destroy us. Unlike all those hollywood movies where humans defeat interstellar alien technology with our "superior" nuclear weapons.

to vizreel
you're obviously right that aliens could be smarter than us...considering you mispelled "refer and couldn't have" , confused the uvula with the tonsils (uvula aids in voice vibration and articulation), and actually spelled out etc in an attempt to sound more sophisticated than you really are. Nobody calls me a fucking newb!

Awesome video. Just think, there is an alien in one of those other galxies right now posting the same thing on their website saying how small they are compared to the other hundreds of galaxies they found and so on and so forth.

By the way, that's not a picture of the Milky Way. We have yet to send a craft of any sort beyond our own solar system.

Or.. consider that... Though other life-forms may be MUCH more advanced than us... travelling THAT fucking far.. is still not an easy task... AND.. consider that.. with THAT many galaxies... Finding "US" earthlings... isn't a matter of getting from 1 galazy to another.... but getting from one galaxy to another 100's of 1000's and searching each and every solar system in each of those... to find "US"

P.S. Startrek.. with all their advanced technology and dreamed up inventions and faster than light travel... is all only in a tiny part of our galaxy... THEY... have never left the milkey way... i think the newst "Voyager" episodes is just way on the other side... but still... within our single galaxy...
