Question: What are some answers to the Fermi paradox?

23 Oct 2022,12:22 AM

 

• What are some answers to the Fermi paradox?

• If we do find life on Mars, what might be some ways to check whether it formed separately from Earth life, or whether exchanges of material between the two planets means that the two forms of life have a common origin?

• If there is no evidence that UFOs are extraterrestrial visitors, why do you think that television shows, newspapers, and movies spend so much time and effort publicizing the point of view that UFOs are craft from other worlds? Who stands to gain by exaggerating stories of unknown lights in the sky or simply fabricating stories that alien visitors are already here?

• Think of examples of contact with aliens you have seen in movies and on TV. Discuss how realistic these have been, given what science tell us. Was the contact in person (through traveling) or using messages? Why do you think Hollywood does so many shows and films that are not based on our scientific understanding of the universe?

Expert answer

 

Some answers to the Fermi paradox are that other intelligent life forms might not be interested in communicating with us, or they might be too far away for us to detect. Additionally, it's possible that other intelligent life forms have already gone extinct, or that they never developed in the first place. Finally, it's also possible that we simply haven't been looking long enough or in the right places. Ultimately, the answer to the Fermi paradox remains a mystery.

 

 

One way to check for a common origin would be to see if the DNA or other genetic material of Martian life is similar to that of Earth life. If they are similar, it would suggest that they share a common ancestor. Another way to check would be to see if the two forms of life use the same biochemistry. If they do, it would again suggest a common origin. Finally, if we find fossils of Martian life that are similar to fossils of early Earth life, that would also suggest a common origin.

 

Ultimately, there is no definitive way to know for sure whether Martian life shares a common origin with Earth life. However, any one of these lines of evidence could provide strong support for the idea that they do.
