Many space agencies, such as NASA or SpaceX are currently planning to establish permanent human colonies on Mars. I'm no expert, but I would think that establishing a colony on the moon would be much easier and less dangerous.

For one thing, Mars actually has some of the things we would need to have for long-term stays, such as water, something of an atmosphere though not much, and soil we could possibly grow food in.

The moon -might- have traces of water, but that's it.

Personally, I think we shoulda been terraforming Venus as soon as we figured it could be done. We'd be halfway to a habitable planet by now.

No questions asked, just pack up and you get to be one of the first civilians in space and to another planet.
I would, hands down.

>>725090983
Seed the atmosphere with extremophiles from the ocean depths near thermal vents. Pressure is about the same and they consume the sulfur and carbon dioxide. It would take a while, to be sure, a couple of hundred years at least and we'd have to keep sending "seed" populations of microbes tailored to the environment. But it could be done.

As the CO2 levels drop, the temps and pressure would start to mediate to something a little more livable.

Our first human colonies would probably start out on airships high in the atmosphere. Commerce would be in industrial gasses and hydrocarbons.

>>725088040
>Come share your beliefs here.
I try not to believe.

Maybe there's intelligent life out there, maybe not.

Maybe there's just one other kind of intelligence species out there, maybe there are vast varieties of forms of life out there, varying in levels of intelligence.

Maybe, there were the came conditions somewhere else in the universe that created life just like life on earth, and the events on that planet played out very similarly to earth, and there is another being, very similar to myself, creating a post on the random board of an image based message board very similar to this one.

>>725093380
It's there, but it's deep under the surface. It might be hard to get to.

>>725088304
>>725088448
Good news to you two I guess. NASA has gotten past and is planning the first stage of a mission to Saturn's moon, Enceladus. This moon has a good chance at having life in its underground oceans. A friend of mine's professor has already been paid by NASA to develop an instrument that can find life in the environment of where they would be searching.(Chemistry professor, chemical device)

>>725093172
Does no one here realise what that is and how it's going to change everything? All these pics of galaxies being posted are going to look like shit in a couple years

>>725093476
Maybe there's a humanoid species out there, more technologically advanced than us, having launched space travel missions, and happened to find a planet like in Avatar.

Maybe that's happening right now. Maybe that already happened before the human race evolved from great apes.

>>725093800

Maybe, a species has achieved technology much more advanced than we have today.

The planet was once like ours. The life on it was like ours. Eventually, they solved their pollution problem. They raised the global standard of living to that beyond common western civilization.
They expanded to other nearby habitable planets. They further advanced their science and technology, their art, their culture.

They have their disagreements amongst each other.

Some planets have revolutions. Some planets achieve greater overall well being due to the revolutions, some planets start the process of getting to where some have already gotten, all over again.

Other life forms are found, contact is made, their level of advancement is similar to that of current day earth.
The contact goes relatively well, due to the knowledge and intelligence of the species.

Interdimensional travel is achieved, alternative dimensions are confirmed.

Keg party alien grey.

>>725094486
As soon as the thing launches, it will take a month to get to its position (further than the moon) and it must unfold and get ready. I can imagine looking towards the first light of the universe is one of the first things they will do, and then likely just release all the images like they do with Hubble Space telescope.

>>725094907
>>725094486
Me again, also plans to launch October of 2018, so you can probably expect released images before Christmas of 2018.

>>725088040
I think that it's quite ignorant to assume we're the only people that inhabit a planet. Though, it depresses me knowing that I more than likely will not live long enough to see any alien species or visit a planet. Ever since I was a kid I dreamed of flying around in space on my own personal spaceship. Damn shame. Maybe reincarnation exists, that'd be nice. Perhaps I could be born again in an area I actually want to be in.

>>725094907
Have they said anything specifically at all?
Will they launch sometime this year?

>>725094486
You mean the results and findings? It's going up past the moon next year (2018) and so about a year after to be sure. I already said "in 2 years" in an earlier post.
>>725094201
Where did you get "x7"? I heard it was much more powerful than that compared to the Hubble actually. Which isn't surprising considering the time gap between the two generations and the technological advancements since the Hubble went up

I think there are aliens.
But just IMAGINE how life would be if we were fortunate enough to share a solar system with another species.
It's fucking crazy to think about.

>>725095093
Dude it's all official. They even have a YouTube channel with lots of updates. Go do your own research a bit.

>>725095036
>>725095093
That's great.
Always hate hearing about new projects only to find out I have to wait seven to ten years to see or hear about any results.

after years of studying astronomy, i have come to the conclusion that the universe is fucking large

>>725095070
See>>725093541

At the very minimum we can hope to find some life on this moon, and if we can find life on the frozen wasteland that is Enceladus, then I'm sure we can find life in places that are even better to fit it. But yes, I am also sad I can never fuck a sexy beast like Jabba.

I find space so interesting. Thinking of how we are part of a semi-infinite/infinite universe is amazing. Think about it. Due to infinite probability, There are literally galaxies shaped like EVERYTHING. To think we are part of a huge galaxy that is part of a huge universe that might actually be a part of another galaxy. Imagine that!

>>725095210
Off-topic, but you're really going to want to wait for a project called ITER

it's like the Large Hadron Collider, but for nuclear fusion

if the researchers there pull it off, they'll literally alter the course of civilization. not joking. it's one of the largest and most complex projects mankind has ever undertaken (source: hope to work there someday)

>>725088040
Sometimes I have bad dreams about what might be lurking in the darkest places in the universe. Places devoid of light and life as we know it, places you weren't meant to tread or even think of.

>>725095446
It's nothing like the large hadron collider besides being an expensive experiment with several countries collaborating...

>>725095697
sorry, didn't express myself clearly

it will have the same revolutionary effect on fusion research that the LHC had on particle physics research

>>725095446
>hope to work there someday?
You sir, are an unfathomable stretch smarter than I am if that's a realistic goal. Good job and good luck.
I think I heard or read a small bit about that before.

I was about to pose this question also a little off topic but good for the thread.
Does it make sense that IF we were able to travel faster than speed of light and look back at earth, the images would technically be from the past?

>>725093172
I am

Nothing mate, this is it.

>>725095759
It's effects would definitely be way more revolutionary than the LHC. Once we master fusion, our civilization will become a type 1 civilization

>>725095927
it's sort of an unrealistic goal, but I'm already in the field at a 'murican public research uni, so we'll see

I'm probably going for the engineering/construction side more than the theoretical plasma shit, lol

shame not too many people have heard about it, agree with >>725096093

>>725094501
Maybe somewhere out there, there is a male. This male had finished his higher education, and has applied for a well paying job. All he wants is to live comfortably. This male gets that job, and he makes money with ease. He gets himself a luxurious home, and many entertainment items. He meets a female, and develops a relationship with her, and they fall in love. They both want to live luxurious lives together. They grow more dedicated to each other. They spend years together, enjoying the pleasures of life. They learn more about each other than they know about any other person. They lives seemingly have no negativity.
They find their jobs entertaining, and they enjoy the company of their coworkers. They keep routine, and they routinely break routine.
One fine day, after having enjoyed dinner in one of the nearby cities, they walk and explore, and talk to each other. It's a busy area, there are many people around. A man being pursued by another man is running, pushing people out of his way. The man pushes the female, and she stumbles. She trips, and falls into the road. A car passing by attempts to quickly break, the sound of screeching tires, the smell of rubber fills the air, and she is hit by the car.
The chase continues on.
The male, a stands still, as if he were in shock.
He then quickly runs to the female. He looks at her, scanning for damage. He checks for breathing, no breathing. He checks her pulse, no pulse. Sadness is on his face, accompanied by a focus. He screams at the nearest person to call 911. He begins CPR. He starts chest compressions. He checks for a pulse, nothing; he visually gets more upset. He hammers her chest with his fist, and once again starts chest compressions. A crowd watches his desperate attempts. This continues on. As he keeps checking for signs of life, seeing nothing, he becomes more and more upset, and he continues on. Eventually, an ambulance arrives, and EMTs pull the man away. They put the female on a stretcher.

>>725096093
also read about DEMO, ITER's planned successor, if you're into massive amounts of power production

i always imagine the apocalypse as something quite abrupt from outer space. no big global warming, no big political escalations followed by nuclear war, no horrible viruses or sicknesses,
just some big fucking rock from outer space slamming into the side of the earth, a deadly gamma ray bolt grilling our planet at an instant or maybe a stray black hole fucking up our orbit or swallowing us whole.

then that would be it. all the magnificence of our creation wiped out in an instant.


we're small

>>725095927
Well...Not really, since we can't see our planet from far away, we can only detect other planets if they move in front of a star or some other mathematical shit, but it's not that we can see it

>>725096293
So basically we don't have technology to get any quality images more than 'one lightyear' away let alone any more?
If that's the case could this James Webb telescope change anything like that?

>>725096170
Maybe she dies, maybe he spirals into depression.
Maybe he becomes a chronic alcoholic.
Maybe he losses his job, maybe he gets jailed for public intoxication and violence.
Maybe he looses his home, his possessions. Eventually, he looses all of his money.

Project yourself into it. It's not that hard if yoy're aware of the 4th dimension's geometries.

The concept of humans seeking for life in other planets is absurd to me, with this whole nonsense about the need of liquid, goldenlock zone and whatnots. Just because we started with these ingredients it doesn't mean it's what it takes to make life happens. It's like asking to a playboy billionaire who just gained all of his diseased dad's fortune "what's the secret to being rich?". Fuck water, liquids and the grim brothers. What if what really takes to make life happens in other planets is to a magic unicorn dragon cum on the center of the planet? We'll never find life with this point of view and it ain't gonna be even close to what it looks on our planet, surely there is no spocks out there.

It's a percentage game though. Think about how big the universe is.

I think i have it figured out. The earth is indeed flat, but it has been built on top of an alien spaceship. The aliens have built the land on it and little by little gave us technology and have been watching us for many many years. They come from beneath the surface, where they live (thats why they are pale) to abduct us, tag us and release us back to the "wild" for further studies.

We are the bastards sons of the universe. We're here only by accident, while we stare at this vast void and complexity and wonder who made us and for what purpose, we try to ignore the thought that our we may be alone and unanswered for all eternity.

I really doubt there would ever be a war between us and another intelligent species. Just think; if they found us first, they would have to be lightyears ahead of us in terms of technology. They would have no need to attack us. And if for some reason, they really did want to attack us, they would do it from far away, and we would be wiped out so fast we wouldn't even know what hit us.
Similarly, if we found them first, they would probably be microbes or sponges or something. The only threat would be accidental spread of diseases.

correct, you're no expert.

1/6th earth gravity, no atmosphere, almost no water, very little resources for a settlement.

the moon is excellent for a launch base to other worlds, or even further, later on. and is a relatively good source for minerals, but for initial colonies, its worse than Mars as so much more would have to be lifted up there initially.

It does remind me of one song we wrote with the lines "you got rustled by a stranger on the internet lolll"

>rude little pickle
I didn't suggested anything, besides the kys stupid kike. Yes, I feel insecure around kikes, because I'm a rude little pickle. Night night kike.

I believe that there is definitely life out there. Nothing really that special about Earth. It took only about a billion years for life to evolve on our planet. Amino acids likely came far earlier still. The building blocks of life are quickly, and easily, created in laboratory controlled experiments simulating the earlthy Earth, and especially its atmosphere. Whether or not intelligent life has evolved elsewhere is a different story, but I believe it has, a great many times. I maintain that throughout the history of the Milky Way, alien species rise and fall as often as human civilizations do relative to our species' short lifespan. Life is abundant and extremely varied.

To me, the entire universe is an insignificant side effect of something much larger. The bubble that we're encapsulated in, all the laws of physics as we know them, everything that we can observe - probably all just one link in an infinite (or not?) chain of complexity that extends upwards, downwards, inwards and outwards. Things exist on a larger scale, and larger than that, and even larger still, throughout our physical universe and many dimensions as well. To me it seems likely that our universe and its laws are governed by the intricacies of some other event, and despite our perception of time, could be created and destroyed with something as insignificant as the drop of a pin higher up on some grand cosmological framework.

Kinda rambling but just puking out some thoughts, sorry.

Maybe,

But space is so infinitely vast. It would be improbable to ever meet others who weren't specifically seeking us out.

Shit, we NEED first contact to humble the fuck out of us as a species. You think any of this shit matters? The entirety of human existence has happened on this rock floating in space. Genghis Khan, Julius Caesar, Ramesses II, Catherine the Great-- ALL of that shit happened on pic related. And this rock is a sitting duck for solar flares, comets, asteroids, hell even planetary collisions or black holes. Anything could happen, and you faggots worry about who gets to use which bathroom and who's God is better than whos. In the end, millions of years from now, you will be dust. None of this matters.

You suggested I sounded like a kid, how can we have an argument if your brain can't even remember what you wrote a few minutes ago?

Early earth* kek

Maybe its the ego of man that allows us to assume that "life" is so special that it has to be mirrored elsewhere. Maybe we're flukes of nature, thinking we're Gods when really we were a mistake of the natural world. The result of a random bacterial mutation.

I don't know, it does seem a little overproduced.

fuck this im going to /sci/ where they actually know what the fuck they're talking about.

Anyone lurking?

>>725105833
Yes, please continue.

FUCK YOU ANDROMEDA, FUCK YOU FOR BEING SO CLOSE TO US!

It's been a pleasure

We will be colliding in several billion years.

Image limit reached. Nice thread m8s, even though I came in pretty late. OP even had some from my own collection. I guess that makes me space-famous.

>>725106899
OP here. I've actually been making these threads fairly often for a year or two now.

I never really bothered, but is there a quick way to directly save an image with the current filename? I would like to start a folder and only know of manually copy pasting filenames

>>725107091
I think I've only ever started one myself, but participate in any of the ones I see. Thanks m8, we need more space.

>>725107275
I open the HTML and copy the filename. Easiest way I can see. There's probably a way easier way that I don't see.

>>725089719
where you gonna get all that water?

>>725098333
sad!

For anyone still lurking, here's a link to the official, HD, false color image of Pluto New Horizons took back in July of last year. It takes a good number of seconds to load for me; it's resolution is pretty crazy.
