 Those four galaxies are in an area the size of the milky way... Night time on a planet in any of these galaxies must be indescribably beautiful. I bet aliens out there are flying back and fourth from galaxy to galaxy all the time.

not if they have cities and light pollution to block out all view of the sky!

i think he was refering to them bouncing back and forth from galaxy to galaxy as if they were just playgrounds in the park. that seems a little improbable to me

The distances involved when traveling between star systems let alone whole galaxies are unbelievably massive. The closest star system to us is about ~4 light years away, that might as well be a million light years away with our current technology. Now how long do you think it will be until humans colonize the entire galaxy? 1,000 years? 10,000 years? 100,000 years? So let's say sometime in the future we manage to explore the entire galaxy....now what? We are practically in the same situation we are now but instead of having to travel a measly 4 light years away, we now have to travel from one galaxy to another, the space between galaxies is infinitely larger than the distance between solar systems.
The tech needed for galaxy to galaxy travel is probably so far beyond our comprehension. I highly doubt an intelligent ET race has managed to survive long enough to manage this at this particular time. Maybe it has happened, a long long time ago, in a galaxy far far far far away. I'm sure it will happen some time in the distant future, but I'm talking billions or trillions of years down the line.

Oo. I got you. In that case, yes, highly improbable but still possible.
Do you guys think that we'll see or contact another intelligent life form in our lifetimes?
If so, how do you think we would react?
Edit: My bad, I just saw your new post. I guess that answers what I just asked, but how does everyone else feel?

I've already seen a craft defy known physics with the speed it went. It was flying normal, flipped upside down and took off faster than anything I have ever seen in my life. Life itself should not be able to live at such speeds... But I've seen it with my own eyes.

So have I, but it was 3 crafts in an asymmetrical triangle pattern.

I agree with you here. I just believe that the universe is infinite so the chances of an ET having that capability is very high. I say this not because of what I've seen, but just looking at it in a mathematical/logical way.

You saw it? That means it couldn't have been going all that fast. I don't think you understand, conventional propulsion is just not going to cut it for interstellar travel. Even if you could reach the speed of light it would still take you FOREVER to travel all around the Milky Way.
If there are alien species capable of travelling between galaxies I promise you they don't look like this and they are probably using a method of travel that we humans can't even comprehend yet. I'm talking like wormhole super warp drive x10,000.

Of course what I saw I can't prove were ET's. It was just 3 bright red orbs in a triangle pattern. There was no way to tell the distance from where I was seeing it.
The 3 orbs moved independently from each other slowly from north to south and back again. All the while maintaining a shifting triangle formation. This happened for about 10 minutes, then one by one the red orbs disappeared with a very faint strip of red light under it.
I believe they were ET's..but, like I said, there is no way I could prove it. I actually searched for videos online the following day and saw very similar experiences all over the world. Mainly in Southern Europe and Central Asia.
I understand what you are explaining to me. I'm just explaining what I saw as best I can.

You saw what you saw man. I personally don't buy it, but hey who am I?
All the conventional UFO sighting stuff just makes zero sense to me. You mean to tell me that a species advanced enough to travel hundreds of light years didn't come up with some sort of stealth system to avoid being spotted by humans? And apparently they just come to earth and fly around for a bit then leave........the fuck is that? What would the purpose of that be, how could they justify expanding the resources just to make crop circles and shit? To study us? That's bullshit, if they wanted to study us I'm sure they'd have the tech to do it quietly and from a distance were nobody would even notice. It just makes no sense.

Who knows what you saw? I wasn't there so I'll have to take your word for it.
I just can't wrap my head around what they would be doing here? And why don't they just fly way up in the sky were nobody can see them? We have drones that can do that and they can read the license plate on your car at the same time. Why haven't they made contact in the last 60-70 years since the whole "ufo sighting" thing took off?

My theory is what you call bullshit. To study. Imagine having the chance as humans, to discover a planet with a new species that is showing signs of intelligence. Humans would want to study them, it could give an idea as to how we ourselves evolved. It would basically be like observing evolution from the beginning.

Lol. I keep posting back to you right before you post sandman.
Your point of them being able to not be detected is something I think about as well. The only theory I can think of is that they have been here before, and do want to be detected.

I'm not saying anyone is right or wrong here, I appreciate you two and your input, I think about this stuff all the time and I enjoy talking about it.
I've personally never seen any sort of "UFO" activity, I'd like to though. I'm sure what you saw was strange, Alien? Maybe, maybe not. I don't suppose either of us will ever really know.
Either way the universe is bizarre, who knows man, anything is possible. I mean I'm a talking bipedal primate communicating with other talking bipedal primates through some invisible communication web, I mean what the fuck.

Yeah maybe, but there would be a lot more subtle ways to study us than flying a big fuck off shiny ass ship into the troposphere.

Perhaps, or maybe it's just a rouge ship full of alien pranksters who like to fly around and fuck with the "monkeys" violating the galactic federation code on "How to deal with newly discovered intelligent species"

Yea. It's pretty wild to hear people's theories about this subject. Of course you have your crackpots out there that swear by the existence of ET's, but a lot of people such as myself have seen crazy and explainable things in the sky.
I'd love to hear if anyone else here on the shroomery has seen something similar to what I saw.

Oh man, "Interstellar Trolling" If internet people get a hold of advanced spacecraft it is inevitable. Just wait, instead of breaded cats it'll be breaded aliens.

It's even less probable than that. First of all you need to factor in the probability of there being a planet that can support life (highly unlikely) then multiply that by the chance that life actually evolves (even more unlikely) then multiply that by the chance that life will become what anyone would consider "intelligent" (astronomically unlikely) then multiply that by likelihood of somehow finding a way to perfect intergalactic travel (according to modern physics, totally infeasible) then multiply that by the likelihood that any of these potential "intelligent" aliens would have any of the same ridiculous, star-trekian values that derpy humans have, i.e. exploring space. (a truly frivolous waste of time) then multiply this by the outright un-imaginable unlikely chance that someway, somehow, TWO intelligent lifeforms just so happen to be at the EXACT state of evolution as one another in order to be able to have any kind of meaningful interaction.
Without throwing together some mock-up numbers let me just tell you, the chances of there ever having been or presently being alien beings in those galaxies that are all at a compatible level of evolution at the exact same time and just so happen to have all had the desire to develop intergalactic travel (the most useless thing imaginable) is so close to impossible that you may as well call it a certainty.

I understand what you're saying, I don't think I articulated my point well enough, I don't think you understand what I was trying to say but it's my fault not yours, I was and am very high when I typed that and some of what I was trying to say didn't come out right. I'd try to explain right now but it will probably just make both of us even more confused, I'm going to go lay down now

What happens if black holes are created some way we can't conceive, and on purpose. It rips a whole in what we know as the universe, and splits atoms to such a unimaginable level that it spits that material back out somewhere random. Or somewhere that you can control where it is spit back out. You never fucking know. When I think universe is infinite and old as FUCK, I imagine some weird fucking things. Creatures that have evolved or been randomly created that are part of the air in their atmosphere and learn to freeze themselves for millions of years like some of brine shrimp or something.
Yeah doesn't make sense, but does infinite make fucking sense in your mind?! I'm sorry, I'm super stoned and thinking about what infinite would look like.

MisterSandman said: Even if you could reach the speed of light it would still take you FOREVER to travel all around the Milky Way.
I get what you are saying, but this is not quite right. At high enough speeds you could traverse the entire Milky Way in your life time.
This is because of relativity. The same concept that entails we must travel less than the speed of light also entails that we could theoretically traverse the galaxy in our life time at sub-light speeds. The problems are what you always hear about though, how are you going to get that energy, how are you going to survive that acceleration and are you ok with returning to earth thousands of years after you left. So relativity is a double edged sword. It removes the possibility of unlimited speed in a craft, but it add the possibility of going where ever you would like in you lifetime at sub-light speeds. As long as you are happy with sub-light speeds, traveling around the galaxy is a massive engineering problem, not a scientific problem.

Best case scenario is we master worm holes I would say, instantaneous travel across astronomically large distances. I don't know how relativity would apply to this form of travel though...

mhm, this is the juiciest of the juicy parts of physics. as you approach the speed of light, time slows down. for the photon, existing AT the speed of light, there is no time at all. although to us it may seem like light can travel on and on for millions of years. but to the light itself, it arrived at its destination instantly upon departure

Why do you say that?
Intelligent life forms could exist in any of those galaxies in that picture.
The distances involved when traveling between star systems let alone whole galaxies are unbelievably massive. The closest star system to us is about ~4 light years away, that might as well be a million light years away with our current technology. Now how long do you think it will be until humans colonize the entire galaxy? 1,000 years? 10,000 years? 100,000 years? So let's say sometime in the future we manage to explore the entire galaxy....now what? We are practically in the same situation we are now but instead of having to travel a measly 4 light years away, we now have to travel from one galaxy to another, the space between galaxies is infinitely larger than the distance between solar systems.
The tech needed for galaxy to galaxy travel is probably so far beyond our comprehension. I highly doubt an intelligent ET race has managed to survive long enough to manage this at this particular time. Maybe it has happened, a long long time ago, in a galaxy far far far far away. I'm sure it will happen some time in the distant future, but I'm talking billions or trillions of years down the line.
What is time in space? Distance, I believe.
