Re: pretty random question
this thread suddenly got too heavy for me 4.5g
Re: pretty random question
Why am I being obtuse?
Because I refuse to believe that it is 100% true aliens are more technologically advanced?
Come on JP, you're an inteligent man, there is no proof to say either way, yes it's possible and probably likely that we are not as advanced, but by the same token is it not also possible that we are not behind but in fact more advanced?
And why delete your explination? :huh:
Jonno :cool:

I knew you'd agree. :shifty:
BTW, how much does a penny weigh on the aliens' home planet?
Re: pretty random question

Is it because they have reached us? <- this is what a friend said.
I replied, that does'nt mean they are more advanced tho, that could be simply that they have a better supply of fuel and the average life could be 1000 yearsand they don't need as much food/water as us, hence them being able to travel for longer, if we lived longer and had a better source of fuel we could travel to other planets no?
Jonno :cool:
the problem i see with your supposition is that it would mean the aliens departed on their trip 1000 years ago. that would mean they had the capability of space flight at a time when we were barely aware that other planets even existed.

How do you know what speed they are travelling and how far away they started.

You added the curly wurly. Which individualised it. Good move.
