This picture is proof that time travel indeed exists because you're are seeing a photograph of objects from millions and billions of years ago. And considering the first working camera, the camera obscura, was invented around 1,000 AD by Alhazen...that should make this image impossible because this image is of objects millions to billions of years old. The objects in the image predate the first camera which cannot be possible unless time travel is possible.

For example, if an incredibly ancient intelligent alien race created a "HELLO" sign as large as a galaxy and pointed that sign toward Earth, astronomers on Earth would one day see that sign in the deep future.

If images and sound can be broadcast forward into time, or if future civilizations can look backward in time (just look at the night sky), we must assume that it's possible that matter can be projected forward or backward in time too.


This post is joke, yes?

What's wild and scary is that the universe is expanding at an alarmingly accelerating rate...and we don't know why.

Every time I hear this I wonder where is the universe expanding into? What could possibly be outside the universe?
Mind blowing shite.

It's expanding into other universes. Multi-verse

Of course there is intelligent life in outer space. Not only that, it is a guarantee that there are other humans out there. There are all the same atoms in space. Another earthlike planet with conditions that make the evolution of human life possible is a guarantee.

According to recently released wikileaks documents from Podesta's emails...we have treaties with over 50 alien species most of which are aliens that look exactly like us

I can't remember exactly how he put it but I saw a guy on one of these programs say basically that the universe(s) is so huge that at some point atoms run out of combinations and start repeating themselves, so somewhere out there is the exact combination of molecules that make up you and everything around you...

That would be the case if the universe is infinite in all directions with infinite matter, so far we don't know this to be the case.

Also good news is the recent completion of the James Webb Space Telescope. Due to expansion visible light in the furthest reaches of space has shifted into infrared so Hubble isn't really adequate. The new telescope will let us peer back even further to hopefully the first stars/galaxies.

We know less than 1% of the mechanics in the universe. It is mind blowing the theories that are out there.

I read about that in Scientific American. It was an article that was giving different examples of multiverses, I think.

The idea goes: if you could take a single snapshot of the entire known universe and look at its arrangment of atoms like puzzle pieces, it is mathematically possible to calculate how far you would have to travel in any direction until you reach that same exact configuration of puzzle pieces.

Cool thought experiment.

i got nothing of substance to add to this thread except that I used to love watching Deep Space Nine

That is all.

Carry on.

Another PBS documentary, this one is about alien planets: LINK


One about finding life beyond earth: LINK

Pluto: LINK

Earth from space: LINK


They have some other great ones but you need to be a donor to watch. Or there's always cough.. mvgroup..
