Now I do not know how many people are interested in the topic, but do you believe life is out there, intelligent or not, is it possible, do you think it is real, and please state your reasons why, trying of course to keep the spam, comming, or slurring to a minimum, because our dear poor moderator Mr. Sleep is getting rather down about the lack of content in the threads.
In any case this is my attempt to bring some degree of seriousness to the boundaries of SYM.
Life is a very adaptable organism, it has existed for millions of years, gone through several major extinctions, it has been found in the Earth's mantle, in hot acid beds, and even some believe it or not in the core of a nuclear reactor. Most recently some scientists at NASA had even believed that they had discovered it from a meteorite on mars, though the jury is still out there on that topic. There are several different spots where some people think life might be possible in our Solar System, be it on Mars, say in underground springs, or under the icy shell of Europa out around Jupiter, heated by deep sea vents, yes there is a ocean of water under Europa. Some scientists, admittably it is just speculation, have even suggested that out by the moon Titan, where our omnipotent SS lives, that life might have evolved or at least will evolve in its icy depths when our sun evolves into a red giant melting the ice and jumpstarting evolution.
Some other information, There are more planets outside our solar system then have been discovered inside, something like over a hundred I think.
But in any case do not be intimidated by the science stuff just participate in however way you see fit, hopefully this should be a sufficiently interesting topic for even the living dead of SYM to move toward the sound of smarts, brains brains brains, you know, by smarts I mean conversation of course.
If anyone can post threads, links, and/or information this thread is always open for it or even speculation, learn something new maybe. So anyway post away, please post, I put the poll up because I thought it would be interesting to know.
You know I hope you all aren't just lurking, speak speak don't be shy.
AN pulls out his antilurking trap, it's cavernous belly dripping with acid, hah any lurkers caught in there will definitely die horrible agonizing deaths unless of course if they don't post here.
