Aliens!!! This is the topic which intrigues me everytime I ponder upon it...
I used to run SETI sometime back hoping that I would some day help in making contacts with extra-terrestial creatures . Would like to invite talks on this topic. One thing that I have always wondered is why have most, if not all, research on aliens concentrated in finding possible places in universe which can support life, that is, which has water in some form, sustainable temperatures etc...? Is it not possible that the definition of life can be different for aliens? I mean they may not require water at all. They may sustain only at 1000+ temperatures or at sub-zero temperatures. Why is this not possible? After all, the notion that to sustain life we need favourable conditions like presence of water etc., is concieved by us. For aliens, "favourable conditions" may be different. Would request anyone who has done some reading on this to please throw more lights and possibly supply pointers to good research material... Cheers, Vivek... PS: Thanks NimmiJi for this new forum... |
