ETs vs Time and Distance

Wednesday, February 13, 2019 12:00

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I’ve often noted that my first major in college was Astro-Physics, from which I departed early on, having trouble with the math and others who insisted upon The Big Bang Theory which I despised and still do, but that for another time.

Digging out some of my old text books (outdated) and other astronomy tomes in my book collection(s), I was surprisingly struck by how much distance and especially time it would take for an alien species from another star system to travel to Earth: thousands of years from the nearest star (Proxima Centauri in the Alpha Centauri A and B cluster, a binary system), this at the speed of light, or less depending upon the method used for travel or even the possibility of Einsteinian space/time warps:

For other stars, often mentioned by Ancient Astronaut/Alien theorists and UFO/ETH advocates, the distances and times are even more vast.

Could an alien species or even von Neumann probes function that long or be doing so in the numbers indicated by UFO reports of alleged visitations?

Would an advanced extraterrestrial civilization still be extant after vast periods of time, considering the volatility endemic to the cosmos and/or the nature of civilizations no matter how stable they are (or were) in an historical period of time?

ETHers have got to give up the ghost of their imagined source for UFOs.

The idea is preposterous, on its face, especially for the alleged UFO visitations, past and present, making up UFO lore.

But what if the aren’t that far away? What if there are some aliens right here in our own solar system? There are lot’s of funny videos of things on the moon and other places…
