Star Talk

I mean, with so
many other potential 
eyes -- perhaps countless 
professional celestial spies -- 
silly to think we are not also
distant seen~ travels
a long way our own
Sun's mid-level sheen -- 

Such light, a form of Galactic
Morse....

Just a note for further discussion. Science has found, various forms of life where some of the most extreme environments on earth exist. With all the trillions of stars and planets in the universe, the greater question to me is, not whether there are other forms of life out there...but what could possibly prevent it!?

I have always doubted that there are aliens in the large galaxy. But then who am I to understand God's infinite ways?

You are God's child? Made of God, loved by God -- just my opinion. Who knows? Just seems to me a waste of real-estate if we are the only ones. Can't be.

I just don't know what to think about all the stories that have poured in over the decades. Can they really ALL be false?... I once thought the Roswell, NM stories of the 1950's were the real thing... Not so much anymore. Perhaps there really is no one else out there? What's your take on all of this?

Well, being you are just asking my opinion, I believe there are trillions of populated planets throughout the universe. Intelligent life is everywhere, excluding earth, and in some cases, forms we cannot even begin to imagine. I still hold out hope that earth will become intelligent:) Thank you, my friend.

A good poem. I'm also hooked on these alien stories.

Have yet to meet one...that I am aware of. But earth has just taken baby-steps when it comes knowledge of the great cosmos. Speed of light is not the ultimate. Gravity waves infinitely faster. True gravity waves manipulating the fabric of Space and Time (via atom nucleus and Star-eating Black Holes) (Dark Matter). What scientist perceive as Dark Matter, in distant space, is nowhere near being factual. If anything I have said is new to you, please read "Unified Theory, by Joe DiMino". There I explain much more in detail. Blessings my friend.
