Other planets could have even more life than Earth does, scientists say

But overall the vast majority of life we'd find is likely to be less advanced or developed than us not more

How can u be so sure of that?

The problem is that our idea of intelligent life, people expect to find cellphones and internet on another planet..

Let's find a fish first and then we continue from there lol

I wonder if the intelligent life forms will be hot

We can't be absolutely sure obviously

 

But in theory it makes the most sense for a variety of different reasons

Most likely the Majority of life tbh

yeah or huge insects, or just plants idk,the  human's intelligent was a natural mistake in some sense, we were not supposed to be what we are now and to built this big tech and science empire, it's not impossible but it's pretty rare to be possible to replicate it again with another species on another planet, we are trying to do it here on Earth with Gorillas and Baboons but the research is going on for a long time and the results are pretty limited, it's like their intelligent is not passing the 3-4 years old human being kind of intelligent.

Is Shawn Mendes of the said planet a hunty?

Yeah Intelligent life at least at our level or higher I suspect is quite rare and a very small percentage of life

 

Even here on earth the smartest animals still have a very big gap with humans in all kinds of aspects

 

Add to that the fact we are believed to possibly actually be one of the earliest comers of life into the universe, intelligent life may indeed be very rare

 

Also not a single galaxy we can a serve seems to show evidence of a type III civilization (which would be 10,000 to 100,000 years ahead of us minimum)

 

It's obviously hard to be absolutely certain but theoretically a type III civilization would use and consume so much energy that they should either build Dyson spheres around their stars of their galaxy or if they find another form of abundant energy and don't require their stars like that we should still see evidence of energy distortions

 

Of course we could be making wrong assumptions about how an advanced civilization would present itself. Maybe we wouldn't necessarily see visual evidence the way we think we should

 

But at least based on what we know and what we can see, there doesn't appear to be any type III civilizations anywhere near where we can observe

Also the fact that we didn't get any sign through the internet network, I can assume that a type II-III could reach us through our network or hack it, whatever.. and it's not happening.

It's funny but we're not even type I

I read somewhere that in many earth-like planets we would face more or less the same known species on earth, especially with reptiles and mammals.. fish is pretty messy, we are still discovering new ones here..

Yeah but it took us billions of years to get here... A type III civilization would only be thousands of years ahead

 

So on the grand scheme of things on the cosmic time scale were not that far behind a type III and I'm saying we're not seeing any. At least as any evidence of any anyway

 

And we're so close to a type I  anyway that were basically one. If our planet was just a little smaller we'd be one so...

Idk, but the term "intelligent life" makes me wonder if everyone will look like stereotypical nerds.

[Chromatislaps 34,854]

could have more live.... until humans arrive
