New Study Suggests That 60 Billion(!) Alien Planets Could Support Life

Maybe, just maybe, all those aliens are here destroying the planet cause theirs is obliterated.

The "habitable zone" is where they think life can form. Yet they still do not understand how life is created.

The number of life supporting plants is going to way larger then just 60 billion in the Milk Way.

God does allow us a part in creation.

All animals are made by god and named by man.

The habitable zone has changed overtime. Venus is a lot like earths atmosphere. Mars will one day be in the habitable zone when the earth is no longer.

People always wonder why mars is carved out like it has had oceans, yet it's impossible for the water to be in a liquid state.

IT NEVER WAS IN A LIQUID STATE AND CAN'T BE UNTIL THE "GOLDILOCKS ZONE" CHANGES.

God obviously made it that way for a reason, why else would it be so impossible for us to fathom.

Read about quantum communications and think about the probability that a race that can explore the galaxy can use it.

That is just the thing, it doesn't have to be water that caused it.

Water does not have to present for there to be life. Also, who is to say that there must be a liquid compound, of any type, present for there to be life.

personally, I believe all the planet's are alive and support life even the sun. we just can't see it because our senses only pick up a minute amount of the known existing frequencies, let alone other dimensions...

anyway in all seriousness, who cares if someone claims 60 billion will support life (like ours) it will take you 60 Billion years to get there... you're probably just gonna see a bunch of rocks, water and trees... not to mention you're NEVER going to get there in THIS LIFE time anyway.

Each one with their own version of the bible?

You are still wrong. You used the British billion which is obsolete.

He ASSHOLE! Thanks a lot for all the popups and the attempted installation of spyware on my computer from that link you posted.

If you want spyware and/or viruses installed on you computer, go ahead and click on that link.

Not at all. In fact, creation and its Creator are evident. You can't see it because of ego-centrism. It's because of that that you project man out there as other life, not the other way round.

Best news I heard all day...

at the rate you fleshmongers are going you are going to wipe yourself out before too long...

Its good to know another food source could be out there

Wow, hope they dont try and invade us all at once.

Also being policed by gov, and pretty sure there was a signal we picked up then lost so...

When we see stars far away, we see the past,because of the long distance in light years.
So it´s only a guess.
I don´t think they take into consideration othrt dimensions.

Just a thought experiment--- If the galaxy is a super-cell-- where each solar system is a sub-cell--- where each planet is a possibility for life-expression potential---where life-forms are intrinsic to the energy-states from which they are derived--- Natural Law is expressed across the whole--- only those planets of the Earth-like potential will have life similar to our own--- following the same natural laws-- those which have different energy envelopes will be quite different and very alien to all standards we ego-eccentrically consider normal by our needs of living conditions.

If life is multi-dimensional by expression of Law, planets are life niches in a greater ecology of the Macro-Environment called a Galaxy. Science is looking down the wrong end of the telescope so to speak... as for why we are not inundated with alien signals--- maybe the best ones were kept secret under national security--- maybe the communication science postulates are simply wrong--- we are publicly looking for the wrong things on purpose to keep the right ones a secret--- so long as the gov. under military secrecy, wrapped in deeper secrecy, controls the access and or information, thus, it is a guessing game as to the real reasons Contact with such other 'civilizations' has not already occurred.

Thus, this simple thought experiment merely treats the galaxy as the expression of a greater whole purpose, whose every system expresses such a purpose so defined. One might surmise mankind is actually quite late to a party of which he may not have been invited. In which case mankind is so far behind he is a hopeless primitive so compared. Perhaps the locals simply observe us the same way we observe an ant hill. Our aggressive, violent behavior no doubt is an issue as well.

Nu-uh

I'll bet it's....like a hundred million zillion planets.



Stupid fucks.

Seems rather low to me. Thats less than 1 planet per 3 galaxies.

60 billion in our OWN GALAXY fucktard. Try reading the fucking article before commenting in the future so you don't have to look like a total dumbass.

No it isn't. Every known scientific fact tells us life only exists on Earth, and supports the law of biogenesis: that life only comes from other life. It doesn't spontaneously generate all over space like Star Trek pseudo-science would have you believe.



Life requires an intelligent designer. That designer is God, who created the universe to support the Earth. Earth is the only place with life. Deal with it.

Another jackass that didn't read the article. It's 60 billion IN OUR OWN GALAXY.

Do any of you people read?

There's no God you fruitcake. Life DOES NOT REQUIRE an intelligent designer unless you're a tool who doesn't understand science.

Go learn some science and stop acting like a mindless jugfuck.

It is a tiny number but we're working from the inside out, so to speak.

You can expect that estimate to shoot up once we confirm the first "M class" exoplanet.

BUT!

I'll wager any money you like that intelligent life is probably incredibly rare.

I bet that most life bearing planets will be home to primal forms of life.

The dinosaurs for example, we (as in mammals) only caught a break because of a lucky space rock smacking the Earth.

Then all those crazy variables down the ages...

Maybe humanity could even be the only intelligent life in the galaxy, in which case it's ours for the taking.

The galaxy is a garden brimming with life perhaps... and only we have the capacity to be gardeners... kind of cool but kind of sad too.


What I would really like to see is a reworking of the Drake equation inputting all the new variables exoplanetary research has given us, I'd do it myself but I'm watching Magnum P.I atm.

So you have sources that, through scientific method, have produced results such as spontaneous life happening?

Please share..:

Well my little trolly plops you maybe closer to the truth than you realise. They do indeed 'walk among us'.

Please share.

You "mindless jugfuck."

We're waiting.

There are 300 Billion Stars in the Milky Way, FYI.

That's good news, because the power hungry scumbags and their brainless masses of following serfs have almost destroyed this one.

Check please.

Cool! Another number
