microbial life was already found on mars

- Planet formation

At . They talked about how alien looks will they have brain in upper part..sort of n legs and all.. as I think about this is for the intelligence to happen in brain it should be at higher level connected to the spinal cords .. cause if you see animals or any species around their intelligence is mostly due to where it's brain n spinal placed . And most of the animals they walk on 4 legs than us which is of two although kangaroo are there but I never studied them compare to these topics.. its just a thought occured to me while listening this .. hope some one comes and have discussion on this ..

Great interview. At about I was excited to think you were going to ask about unexplained structures, like the Pyramids or the Inca temples. Why did you not?

Shunyata.

Where does this notion come from that colliding pebbles will eventually somehow stick together, integrating themselves to form larger stones which will eventually form boulders, and so on up to planetary sized objects? Where does that occurr else where in nature that it can be observed actually happening?

ok but where do the gasses come from? What causes them?

that would make sense if the moon wasn't perfectly spherical looking from here, maybe the rotation after all the years made it spherical idk

- Plate tectonics

- Extinction events

I think Carter's argument is right. It's not flawed. There is no reason why evolution should produce intelligence within the lifetime of the host star, even if we assume abiogenesis happens and life survives throughout the star's lifetime. What if _the average_ time to produce a technology-capable intelligence is 1 trillion years? It happened here in 3.8 billion years but we could simply be a fluke..

Life put oxygen into the atmosphere - yes, exactly. We now know about like 5000 exoplanets and none of them have any oxygen on them. What does that tell us? That even if there's life on any of those (huge if) it didn't even get to photosynthesis - a crucial evolutionary step necessary for higher energy processes. Not even talking about further steps like evolution of eukaryotic life or multicellularity..

- Biosphere

It should also be noted, that currently, we are the only one of the only objects in the solar system that has plates.Enceladus does in its own way as water ice, but that's a different story. I believe this is where we will find life in the solar system. We have plates, life is here and thriving. Its one of the major factors absolutely. I'm about minutes in, I may add onto this comment.

- Technosphere

does anyone know what is the mass of all the materials we launched out of earth to space?

- Emergence of intelligence

Resume:

- Drake equation

Did this guy just drop a Drake pun that went over all our heads?

- Exoplanets

@ got me good. even if there's no life, there are trillions of worlds where snow is falling and waves are crashing on shorelines...chilling

- Habitable zones

- Fermi Paradox

, when our knowledge, abilities and possibilities to explore the universe were at a completely different level. as if this question hinders the development of knowledge and its variability, as if it were always used by those physicists for whom the possibility of life outside the earth somehow did not fit into their worldview. i stop the video exactly at . and I'm curious what Adam Frank will say. I think the range of answers will relate to huge vastness of the universe, our detection capabilities and time, even though it is relative.

Why aren't they here? Who's to say we aren't them? Maybe they spread from star to star, but "start over" each time.

Well I mean, either Youtube has been affected in the very last years by the most humongous attack of geniuses in video editing, or we are way past of this conjecture. There are tens after tens of home made videos capturing UAPs and USPs and, as important, a myriad of statements in the comment sessions of these videos with personal experiences. By absolute regular, anonymous people, not asking for money nor views. The simple reason being that never in our modern history have we had so many people with imaging capable equipments, usually smartphones, instantly available, thus able of capturing sequences in the very moment they occur.

information engraved in stone or metal

But the native Americans didn't invent the wheel. Just why?

- Alien civilizations

"Getting basic biology started isn't that hard." Then why hasn't an intelligent designer like human beings created life from non life? Yes, we've made amino acids and the basic building blocks, but that's like making Lego bricks and saying you've designed a Lego machine.We still do not know how to go from non life to life.

how was this 5Sigma detected at 114 LY?

LOVE the moment when Lex thinks of something and notes it down with a little smile full of happy curiosity

the book cover is wrong, the book mentioned is written by Kim Stanley Robinson

Great guest, please have him back! One correction: The wrong book was put on screen at at the mentioned of Aurora by Kim Stanely Robinson. The image was of Aurora by David Koepp which is not a generation ship novel.

- Cryogenics

- What aliens look like

- Alien contact

The film the Arrival didn't mention that on their planet they use land animals/slaves to create their technology, not much different to what's happening here, entities that have more interest to get away from here than make it beautiful

- this has kinda been done, and it's on Youtube. There's a channel called "Fearless and Far" that put out a video called "Asking Hunter-Gatherers Life's Toughest Questions", where they went and lived with hunter gatherer tribes for a short time and got interpreters to be able to talk to them a bit. When they asked them "What is the meaning of life", I remember one responding very quickly "MEAT" 🥩

- UFO sightings

There you have it. Can we communicate with ants ? This is the conundrum. We have no concept as to form yet we speak of communicating with them. I want to be sarcastic.

- Physics of life

I would highly recommend seeing interviews with Retired Colonel John B Alexander p.h.D. Then tell me if Pseudo-Spirituality/Science is worth a serious debate on its plausibility?

- Nature of time

Time is how we experience the constant continuation of existence.

causal closure

- Cognition

really reminds me of the concept of my sci-fi novella 'what on earth have we done?' by Imad afdam. (shamelessly self-promoting)
