    Its very hard to digest that another human world living as same as we do million years far away.:sorry:

    At the same time it's a bit hard to believe that we are the only life forms that exist in this universe. I am not implying human. We cannot be alone... there should be other life forms, however primitive or highly advanced. The basic building blocks of life surely can be found on other planetary systems.

    Once the Nobel prize winning great physicist Enrico Fermi, questioned "Where is everybody". He was referring to why extraterrestrials are not contacting us. Now this is known as the "Fermi Paradox".

    The "Drake Equation" gives us an estimate of how many potential civilizations can exist that humans could communicate with.
    But so far no one has contacted us and all these equations seem to be broken. The project SETI was launched because of this.

    Thanks :) Read when you have a break. Never stop reading, you will learn something and will be up to date. There's a lot on the Internet.
    I still read hard copy novels, at least one a week and other scientific materials too.
