The Size of our World...Be Humbled!

Great post. Our egos make us feel far more important than we really are in the big picture.

So if there were some planets around a star the size of ARCTURUS, how fucking big would the lifeforms be.

We would seem like micro organism to them!!!! :eek:

Fucking aliens might not even fuck with us cause we to dam small to them.

Or what if our sun makes their sun look small, and they are microsopic to us. :eek:

This is crazy.

Humans are a spec of dust on a spec of dust in a big ass desert.

Here's a wise man rightchere :yes:
 
If you wanna feel small check this.

Our galaxy is composed of over 400 BILLION stars, That's just in the Milky Way.

The local universe has over 100 Billion+ . Surely we can't be alone...:lol:

I've pictured us being just microscopic creatures on a galactic scale since I was a child.

Hypothically speaking, that was the point Men in Black II was trying to make.


of let mayne i have been think about these movies hard lately and it just seems that they put stuff in movie to let us know, seems they have a underlying truth to their plot of sum sort....

Matt Damon playing Jason Bourne was the eye opener for me with that fucking "RFID Chip" shit

shits real

now google search the name in my "location" and you'll see where I want to spend eternity..."IF you believe in it that is".:lol:
 
This will blow some minds here ...

Consider the fact that our Sun is 91-93 million miles away from Earth. This distance is so far that when you look up to see the Sun in the sky it really isn't there!!! You are actually looking at just the energy of the Sun.

It takes about nine minutes for that energy to get to the Earth so if you want to know where the Sun was really when you first looked up at it just wait nine minutes and you'll know.
 
99% of the scientific principals that allow you to even sit there and type what you just typed can't be "seen" and have to be accepted based on scientific theory. It's easier for some people to accept that some spook floating around someplace in "heaven" molded all this shit like playdoe than it is to accept scientific theory (with all the loose ends that shit entails to accept, cats are STILL skeptical of science).

Simple minds need simple things I guess.

Spirituality can't be seen either

How spiritual can you be when you realize that we are like molocules on a spec of dust in a big ass beach.

Here we are on this little spec of dust claiming all this god shit, when there are planets and maybe lifeforms we seem like BACTERIA to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some lifeforms may be so complex they wouldnt even bother to look though their microscope at us!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Did you see them stars?????? Can you imagine the matter that broke off when their solar system was formed and the size of the planets it created???

Fuck scientists that say lifefomrs cannot be that big, these the same muthafcukas that said a bumble bee shouldnt be able to fly. :yes:

The only spirituality I tend to believe in is the "being in touch with the universe" kind, not any that rely on the boogeyman in the sky.

The whole population of all of earth lifeforms could maybe fit on a germ on one of these muthafuckas door knobs and maybe be wiped out by one spray of alien mr clean.

It is really humbling to know that we may be to other creatures the very germs will kill with lysol. Remember how big shit got on this planet when oxygen levels were high, insects were even huge. We think elephants are big, and they are to us. And thats on this small ass planet. A blue whale is on this small ass planet, the shit that can be out there is dam near frightening!!!!!!!

Whats also insane is space travel. How could you not hit shit? wE been watching bullshit like star wars and star trek and they show everything the same size. When in space, we are on the small side of things.

Seems almost typical for a scale to show that we are in the middle like this picture does, lol

Actually, I don't think so. That actually doesn't seem viable to me at all. To say that a larger star than our own will have bigger planets that support more massive life-forms is scientifically in-accurate. First off, theres the fact that these life forms would plausibly be made up of the same elements as life on Earth. Carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen, with some leeway possible for silicon based life forms. But even thats unproven and not likely. The gravitational and electromagnetic forces on these supermassive planets would not be conductive to life. There are other scientific principle that would discount that particular theory. Look up scaling factors for example. Look up the cross-sectional inverse square ralationships that explain why an ant can lift many times its body weight and an elephants proportional strength is significantly lower. Or why a hummingbird or bumblebee can fly with wings so small compared to its body and an eagle or falcon needs huge wingspans to support flight. He's thinking, but not hard enough.

And while you're talking about about how big stuff in space is, think about this. Everything you know in this world is perceived through your 5 senses to your brain by way of electricity, just like everything inside your computer is built using binary code (0's & 1's) So the very concept of the matrix, could actually be real when you think about it.

So actually, none of this "space" you speak of might be real.

Yet still, spirituality can't be seen

It takes about nine minutes for that energy to get to the Earth so if you want to know where the Sun was really when you first looked up at it just wait nine minutes and you'll know.

It would be more correct to say "Thats what the sun looked like 8 minutes ago." Where Sol is is pretty irrelevant to an observer on Earth that understands the fact that we move around it and all movement in our universe is relative to a perfectly still star. Until, that is you look at it from the perspective of someone in a different solar system. I think this will do a better job to blow minds, if you have a strong enough imagination. Consider the fact that anything we see that is farther away than the distance from our occipital lobe to the light receptors in our eyes is being observed in a slight state of time dilation as well. It takes light a finite amount of time to travel 10 feet just like it takes it to travel 93 million miles. The reason there is a minumum distance imposed is that the electrical nerve impulses have to travel to the brain and be processed. This happens at near light speed too. Every time you glance around the room, you are looking back in time.
 
So if there were some planets around a star the size of ARCTURUS, how fucking big would the lifeforms be.

That last part of what you said is so true. The rest isn't so much so.

From what I understand if there are planets circling Arcturus they will most likely be similar in size to what we have in our own solar system.

Rocky planets like Earth, Mars, Venus and Mercury are limited to the size they can form into before their mass would begin to transform their rocky make-up into a more massive gas planet like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

That being said stronger gravity on a larger planet would change the way lifeforms would develop. Most likely they would be short, stocky, powerfully built slow moving creatures.

Gas planets seem to have a limit as well before their mass start to ignite the nuclear furnace and turn the gas planet into a star.

Thanks for the clarification. It's what I was trying to say, without the brass tacks.

And you are thinking like a man of science, much rescpect.

You dont believe it unless proven by what you already know. Thing is we dont know shit. :lol:

Science is proven wrong all the time bout life. Funny thing is life can adapt, we do not know what things on other planets can be like.

Men of science have problems saying how life on the bottom of the sea is even there with the weight of the world on it. :lol: :lol: Yet I am supposed to listen to these same cats explain why things cannot be on other planets yet they cannot even explain our OCEAN LIFE with all their advanced formulas. :lol::lol:

Scientists have been proven wrong so many times about life on this planet I dont know where to start, and they would have the balls to assume this or that life form couldnt be on another planet.

Can't cockroaches survive extreme radiation? Who is to say what adaptations other lifeforms might have.
 
this whole thing is so damn crazy.....those HUGE planets......

just imagine.....what if there is a planet out there, which is totally identical to ours, even doing as we are doing, having copies and identical beings of us, and everything is totally the same......

i have always dreamed about something like that.

just imaging a replica of earth, lightyears away.......

so crazy, now that we're here, yet so far away...it is truly a beautiful thing.


(unless some crazy ass aliens are plotting on us)

Your theories are cool. But Exo-biology, is still an uproven art. Considering that we still can't figure out why soem life on ou world, doesnt require what we think life should. There are creatures that live in the Gas and methane pits of Yellowstone that THRIVE in an environment hostile to us.

My favorite quote of science and men of science, of which I am one.

Science is full of smart idiots, We believe only what the science tells us, Yet science isn't fallible. Sciences biggest fault is US.
I stand by that quote.
 
Great post!

Its nice to see people with an appreciation for science and life outside this planet.

Touche, never really thought about it like that for any length of time.
 
Based on the observant pictures detailing the various planets so forth, it has been previously determined by approximate size if Jupiter is the size of a basketball and Earth is the size of a green pea it would take approximately 1300 green peas to fill up the basketball representing Jupiter.
 
Man I was watching something on TV that said the further you are away from the earth the faster time moves but you cant noticed to prove it they set two stop watches at the same time and went on a space trip and when they got back the one from space was a few minutes faster so just think if a being was as large as yall talking about are larger , lets say an alien was built like a human and stood about 10 light years tall if he decided to crush our planet with his hands next year that mean we are dead now because time is moving faster for him do yall agree
