Why Is There Empty Space In Space?
Have you ever wondered why is there so much "empty space" in space if there are no other intelligent beings we can communicate with? If this would be true, the whole universe would be a complete waste since humans will never be able to explore not one percent of it. Also, there is so much evidence about aliens, so many sightings and encounters that it is very hard to disprove them all. If the theory of evolution is taken into consideration, the possibilities of intelligent life forming only on Earth are so small that it is insane to believe that such a small possibility could be true. There are so many facts and evidence of the existence of alien life, that, today, not believing in them is too close-minded.
Besides the universe being so big, it contains an infinite number of possibilities, meaning that there are infinite amount of planets almost identical to earth with the same possibilities of containing intelligent life. To this day, the most Earth-like planet discovered by the Kepler telescope is Kepler 22B. It is a

If all the theory that explains how and why life on Earth was formed, then it can also be applied to any other planet in space. If life intelligent life in fact evolved from things as small as microorganisms, which many scientists have practically confirmed to exist in other planets, then why would those microorganisms not evolve into an intelligent form of life? With so many other planets with the same life supporting characteristics as Earth exist, there has to be at least one that will eventually make those microorganisms evolve into an intelligent form of life. Besides, it would be very hard to assume that Earth was the first planet to evolve intelligent life if there are any other planets with microorganisms in them. This means that by now, multiple planets should be containing intelligent life that we are yet to

    Some scientists believe there was life on Mars due to a number of factors. For one we know there was at one point a substantial amount of liquid water when the planet was much younger. We also know Mars’s electromagnetic field has dampened, making it more susceptible to interstellar heat and radiation, thus eliminating the life that could have existed. There are also other several factors including volcanic activity and evidence of salt oceans.…

    The origin of life on Earth is said to be from a single organism, which branched out to create everything there is today. A universal genetic code takes the similarities in organisms and compares them to suggest that each organism came from a single organism from early Earth. Although, this is just a theory, but can support the beginning of life.…

    There is most certainly microbial life on other planets. Life cannot be produced by non-life. When the earth was created, it is incredibly likely that an asteroid, meteor, or cosmic dust had come to the Earth’s surface and began to grow, multiply, and evolve. There is evidence of extraterrestrial microfossils dating back millions to billions of years ago; indicating that, at one point, there was microbial life on other planets. Prokaryotes multiply by a means of asexual reproduction called binary fission. In binary fission, the cell simply needs to grow twice its size, and then it divides into two identical cells. Since prokaryotes are very simple organisms, and there is evidence of ancient extraterrestrial microbial…

    Kepler-62e would fit Heller’s model for a Super-Earth. (Alien Planet Earth) There have been recent discoveries of Earth-like exoplanets, Kepler-438b and Kepler-442b. The size and location of these planets means that these planets have a high chance of being rocky, like the Earth. While Kepler-438b is closer in size to the Earth, Kepler-442b is a better choice due to its location, Kepler-442b gets around seventy percent of the solar energy that the Earth gets.…

    Teleological Argument

    The origin of life has been explained in terms of natural processes, but evidence of intelligent design is expressed by the mere fact that the universe allows life to exist above all other notions. It is still possible to sustain teleological arguments in light of modern scientific principles mainly because of the formation of right conditions to allow life. It is very unlikely that this happens by chance presenting evidence of an intelligent and supernatural being to produce life. Scientific discoveries show how complex and sensitive various conditions need to be for the origin of life for the universe (McGrath, 2010). The universe seems to have been fine-tuned from its inception to produce life on earth. Slight alterations of physical and cosmological quantities in nature would result to an imbalance that would destroy the existence of…

    Are Aliens Real? Is there life on other planets? This is a question many people have considered at least once in their lifetime. According to Neil deGrasse Tyson author of “The Search for Life in the Universe,” all known cultures across all of the time have attempted to answer the question “are we alone?” According to Tyson, although Earth is the only known life in the universe there are many arguments that have been made that suggest that we are not alone (1) .…

    This is not evident that there exists a planet as same as earth in interstellar space on which life form can exist. But there are some compelling reasons to believe in the life forms in outer space. There are many discoveries on the basis of which scientists assume on life forms on other planets. Many life forms have developed so that that they can survive in heat, cold, poisonous chemicals or even in vacuum, and are known as Extremophiles like tardigrades. In other words, we know life can survive in conditions we've seen on other planets and moons. We just haven't found it yet.…

    For long time, the only place which life emerges in the universe was Earth, and the fraction of life bearing planets on which intelligent life appears in Milky Way was (according to the given value) . So it was difficult to define that there is intelligent life outside of the Earth. However, in our calculation, we plugged the number 2 in instead of 1, and this makes a very significant change because it indicates intelligent life emerges outside of Earth. Thus, the importance of the fraction 2 is that it proves the emergence of the intelligent life outside of Earth, and it dramatically increases the possibility of the existence of intelligent life in other planets.…

    12 Angry Men: Drama

    Though all 12 jurors are white men, they are a varied crew. They attempt to sit still around the heavy table at the centre of Allen Moyer's set, but in their passion keep leaping up to pace the room, mop their brows and peer out at an oppressively humid New York day. Relying on their analytic abilities - this is the 1950s, years before fancy forensics determined verdicts - they pore over the details of the case. If Rose's dialogue makes one wish occasionally for the more clipped speed of cop-show patter on today's TV, his story's construction is impeccable. This is thrilling drama.…

    Why Aliens Are Real

    • 493 Words
    • 2 Pages

    All around the world, there's one topic a lot of people talk about. Some people talk about economics, some talk about pop culture. The topic I'm going to be addressing is why I think Aliens are real. Throughout time, there has been many things that make us believe they are real, like the Roswell Incident. A quick recap of what happened was that what is thought to be a UFO crashed near a ranch in Roswell, New Mexico. The U.S. government then took the UFO and told everyone that what the crash was just debris from the crash of an experimental high-altitude surveillance balloon belonging to what was then a classified (top secret) program named Mogul. This may seem unlikely and unrealistic, as if coming from a movie, but that is because this inspired many alien movies to prop up. This might be one of or maybe the most famous alien incidents ever reported, but there is a more believable one and that is “The Wow Signal”. In 1977, The Big Ear radio telescope in Ohio State University picked up an unusual signal. The Big Ear used number and letters to identify the strength of a signal, 0 being nothing, Z being a strong radio signal. One time, a signal came in reading ‘6EQUJ5’ from what seemed to be an empty spot in space. Dr. Jerry R. Ehman recognized this and was completely shocked, so he circled the signal in the data sheet and wrote next to it “Wow!”, giving the signal it’s name. The closest star to where the signal came from was 220 million light years away, meaning the signal came from out of no where. It is believed that this signal was transmitted by aliens, but we still have no actual proof it is. Now, the bible does say we are the only planet with living beings, but think about this, how big is space? We have no clue of how big it is because it is that big. Being that big, wouldn't there be a possibility that there is a world that has living beings in it? What if the society on that planet is more advanced in technology than ours and the reason they were able to…
