Death Bishop Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Oh geez, for anyone that actually believed I had his password.. *facedesk* So I was watching this new TV show, "Life after Humans", and apparently, if we condensed how long the earth has been created into 24 hours, one decade would only be 30 seconds.

Ghost-O Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 We haven't been around very long. And there's only 5 billion years left until the sun has a heart attack and implodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 4-4.5 billion years before Andromeda collides with the Milky Way and small stars when they run out of hydrogen to fuse expand outward and don't have enough gravity to implode.Again what is the OP point besides talking about something that is scientific fact and cant really be discussed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost-O Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Holy hell. I've never been informed of this (I don't read very often). So, thank you. This is exciting! There really may be other life forms out there. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecoboy1324 Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Are you going to keep spamming or what? xD That equation has very high relevance to the topic at hand.It is known as the Drake Equation and is used to determine the possibility of Extra Terrestrial Life in our galaxy.You can expand it to cover the entire visible universe but the variables are so high that it whould be impossible to fiqure it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is but it still proves that there is a very very very very good chance of life on other planets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
