My question is, does anyone here subscribe to the idea that UFOs are spaceships and/or we have been, or are now, being visited by aliens from another planet, and if so, does it have anything to do with your religious beliefs?
I doubt the likelihood is very great that
intelligent aliens have visited Earth as a matter of expedition
I do think the challenges presented by space travel are insurmountable from the multiple levels necessary for such an undertaking.
For instance the enormous resources necessary for leaving a planet to travel the stars are quite unlikely to be available for use by such race.
Then the distances involved present unique problems.Where the heck do you go would be a very difficult decision since, unless the race enjoys the endless travel through space, it can be safely assumed that there would need be a game plan.
In view of the distances involved there are problems with traversing light=years at even the speed of light.Before you attain that velocity you are going to run into the difficulty of of how to shield yourself from the cosmic rays that would be the result of high velocity travel. The reason is that at the sub-light velocity of 60,000 miles per second hydrogen gas atoms floating throughout space now are the equivalent of cosmic rays.
For every solution there are costs incurred that must be taken into account which leads to another problem. Who builds the thing that will take you away from the planet to travel in space? Each person who is working on the project must be compensated and have the incentive necessary to send people on basically a one way trip, since even at the speed of light the effects of relativity will mean that the time dilation they experience will likely mean they never return to the planet they left in any reasonable time frame.
I can list many other problems and the solutions that tend to raise even greater problems. Anyone care to comment?
