didn't know that we had 250 exoplanets out there! lol

That is cool. I believe that there are other life forms out there.

 

Supposedly there is a planet (so far that we actually can't see it) that has a size/distance relative to it's star that provides for Earth like temperatures. So interesting...

 

Just read an article on this. Very interesting! Somewhere out there, some "creatures" are looking up at the stars too. Maybe!

 

Gliese 581 C

^Top ten exoplanets. Interesting

Habitable Gliese 581 C

 

There it is! I was reading The Lives Of a Cell by Lewis Thomas and in one chapter he goes over attempts on Earth to send radio transmissions out into space in hopes of getting a response. Imagine what it would be like if someone replied back...

 

Since we only have been gernerating intelligent radio waves for a short time, they'd have to be awfully close. We've only been intentionally directing signals to space for an even shorter time. I doubt anyone is going to message us making suggestions for upcoming episodes of Amos and Andy.

 

Thomas argues that if we ever did get a response, we should stop and ponder for a moment before continuing communications; we're gonna want to show off a bit, so he proposes letting them hear a little Bach

 

Or maybe some BB King.

 

"Seacrest, OUT!"
