IS THERE SOMETHING OUT THERE?

[rothschild]

Are we the only life form in the universe? If there was someplace else like Earth, we'd know, right?

Scientific advancement can't keep up with the rate of change in the multiverse, so no matter how much it advances, we're falling behind. It might be that change is the one, true constant, because in a continuosly changing sytem there are no actual constants. There are theoretical constants, but theories are guesswork. Some work well enough to build upon, most have no applicability outside of controlled environments. So it's impossible for us to know the totality of what's out there.

For all we know there are extraterrestrial beings here on our planet that know far more than we do, but even then their knowledge would be limited because the only way to fully perceive "reality" is through direct experience, because it's a state of being. What we do perceive, in my opinion, is something along the lines of an ectoplasmic expression.
