Scary to think about!!

Its nearly impossible to get your head around some of the stuff in space, but when you really think about some of the numbers involved how can you not say there must be other intelligent life forms out there as well as us, there just has to be, how can we be just one accident out of the millions and millions of galaxies out there?

Maybe there might be a war between the Galaxies.

Now that would be exciting,

It's OK, I've just been reading that we don't have to worry about the Andromada Galaxay colliding with ours, as it turns out there's only about a billion years left on the clock of Earth before it meets it's maker, 3.5 billion years before the collision occurs. We can all rest easy tonight

You are right some of the stuff that goes on is head scrathing..i can never really understand who scietists can say that there was a big bang at all considering it happened billions of years ago...i didn'tknow we have been here that long.I generally take all that stuff with a pinch of salt.

They can tell that because then universe is still expanding, teh measure lightwaves and work out a speed etc and make calculations from that. The can even find the central point of treh big bang

Dont worry about the earth as by then we will have colonised one of the super earths that are out there such as Gilesa 186 B OR C, anyway from there then we will inhabit one of the other hospitable planets that we find ( Gilesa's sun is on the way out but still hass a few billion years left on the clock)

[Doozer]

and what, might i ask, is the government doing about this?

Our Government , sweet FA. but our techies are designing the equipment
