hollywood bigwig Joe Pera once interviewed an Italian astronaut who said the ideal spacefarer is someone without legs, because you don't use them up there. Hear me out: What if an astronaut had prehensile feet PLUS locomotive flapping, and was like 1/100 of the weight of a human? Would probably have to wear a diaper though.

Langley has whole drawers full of drones. You fly one in, they’ll intercept it. They don’t even get mad about it. They love the challenge. When china floated their balloons over their airspace, it took them a few hours to figure how to send commands to the ballast. Now they can ground the entire spy fleet. 🇺🇸

Seems like Lue Crew is playing nice with the administration, agreeing not to make waves before the election with the implied promise that "we'll for sure start taking some steps next year" while the DoD continues sniping and trying to dismantle them loving idiots are gonna get run around by a senile octogenarian and this is getting reburied in deeper and darker places now that they've sniffed out most of the leaks with AARO/whistleblowers

Rubio sounded pretty annoyed with AARO when Matt Laslo interviewed him the other day. Maybe Ds don't want to push this in an election year, but Rs certainly can

Sean Kirkpatrick running AARO and working for Battelle should be enough evidence to prove this to the people. This issue will be lobbed back and forth with coulthart-like puff pieces until after the election. Whichever senile octogenarian is left holding the bag will release more info based on his corporate owner's quarterly profits. Human.Frank has issued a correction as of 16:17 on Apr 19, 2024 |

I guess I've always expected the search to be relatively short--if there's an alien weather channel being broadcast, a person with a big satellite dish would immediately know and anyone should be able to see it. Seti has to zoom in on each individual star/galaxy/patch of nothingness?

Seti has to zoom in on each individual star/galaxy/patch of nothingness? Yes, not only do they have to "zoom in" but they can only search a small band of frequencies at a time. SETI has only ever searched in a small range of possible frequencies or wavelengths or whatever the term is and they've barely covered a tiny fraction of the sky. A paper came out a few years back and did the math and said if all the possible search area and wavelengths were the equivalent of the earth's oceans than we have searched a bathtub's worth of water and declared a paradox because we didn't find any fish. It's bullshit.

That was even more true when Fermi first proposed it. yeah thanks, this is a great example of misunderstanding fermi's question. afaict paradox was added by others decades later. in the time it was just referred to as fermi's great question, which was simply, where is everybody? his biggest error, if you think that aliens have visited earth was that they would tell us they were here, imo. he suggested that perhaps we were just too out of the way for aliens to come. he expected to find evidence of FTL objects within the decade after they posed the question; i.e., he also thought we just needed to look more.

I'd guess you'd basically want to have a comprehensive survey that includes pretty much everything all the time, and then a mechanism that crunches the data and analyzes everything, right? Which would be great to have, just in general. So you know, a constellation of james webbs and gaia telescopes continually scanning all directions all over the fuckin place, technicians to operate them, support sats to monitor space weather -- and if you're going to have this then might as well or already also have ones looking at the sun and various in-system objects all the time. Then a huge secure (so not accidentally corrupted or modified) database for all this info, and a similarly huge machine assistant process thing, actual librarians to help categorize this information, and a huge academic process to recruit and enable researchers to access all of it. All of this needs to be standardized and made apprehensible to all of these multidisciplinary professionals and everyday morons like me. And if you could do this for something like a generalized space monitoring and analysis program, why would you not do this for history, archeology? Art programs? Why wouldn't you do this for everything? Medicine? Housing? Transportation research and implementation? & ofc the more countries & institutions who get involved the more effective it would be, so... Even starting a project remotely similar to this in a tiny fraction of its scope would require a massive amount of effort, resources, and expertise which is currently unavailable because it just literally doesn't exist or is hard locked out of our hands or is being redirected to fart app development or other entirely unproductive but profitable bullshit. Like p much anything good or cool, not much is possible with capitalism parasitizing everything.

Seti has to zoom in on each individual star/galaxy/patch of nothingness? ish. less about zooming in and more about just being able to aim at the right patch of sky. if aliens use radio signals, it's expected that the square kilometre array will be able to detect an artificial source along the power magnitude of an airport radar within 100ly when it goes online later this decade.
