Whats happening in the cosmos

Alien Earths by Lisa Kaltenegger

How was the first extrasolar planet found in 1995?

"But light and matter interact, .. Signs od life are written in a planet's light - if you know how to read it."

 Valerian and the City of Thousand Planets

"Could this banana be an alien?". Maybe a mushroom with 50 words of vocabulary is capable of being one.

Pattern matching when there isnt one.

Imagine dusting off the golden record. If some of us went that way and treat it as a message from aliens. A message to us from us, if we all cant be on the same mailing list.

Wll it be treated like this silver box in Jamestown which was not opened, to prevent any damage that unrevealing of the schrodinger's cat box might cause. Instead it was xrayed.

Can we guess what kind of DNA, aliens might have? How NASA is using synthetic DNA in its search for alien life - Hachimoji DNA with 8 letters instead of the 4 we are used to.

"Scientists use calculations instead of experiments when the required temperatures wuld melt or freeze the laboratory or the gas mix would poison the expirementers"

Aliens Wanted

1. Must be able to compute the time it needs to transition between the lowest and second lowest energy rate at which the golden record is to be played.

2. How would we be prepared to go to space? In hurry, if we had to leave like the cave dwellers, what would we take. How do astronauts prepare themselves to what they come back to and what if they cant.

3. Stowaways to one planet thinking its another.

4. Panspermia natural space explorers

5. Spilling tardigrades like some arrows of messages
