The predictions of Carl Sagan are in fact true, we are well on our way to a Type One Civilization. ” We embarked on our cosmic voyage with a question first framed in the childhood of our species and in each generation asked anew with undiminished wonder: What are the stars? Exploration is in our nature. We began as wanderers, and we are wanderers still. We have lingered long enough on the shores of the cosmic ocean. We are ready at last to set sail for the stars.” Video clips from: Planet Earth, Home, Timescape, Power of the Planet, Roving Mars, Zietgist, History Channel, Discovery HD. If you have enjoyed this production, then make sure to check out my other Carl Sagan videos.

Extraterrestrial life is defined as life that does not originate from Earth. It is unknown whether any such life exists, and all discussion of it must be regarded as highly speculative. Various claims have been made for evidence of its existence, such as those listed in a 2006 New Scientist article. However, the mainstream scientific community regards all such claims as unconvincing. A less direct argument for extraterrestrial life relies on the vast size of the observable universe. According to this argument, endorsed by Carl Sagan, it would be improbable for life not to exist somewhere other than Earth. The theorization of extraterrestrial life is known as astrobiology, exobiology, or xenobiology. One possibility is that life has emerged independently at many places throughout the universe. Another possibility is panspermia or exogenesis, in which life would have spread between habitable planets. These two hypotheses are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Possible forms of extraterrestrial life range from simple bacteria-like organisms to sapient beings far more advanced than humans. Suggested locations on which life might have developed, or which might continue to host life today, include the planets Venus and Mars, moons of Jupiter and Saturn (eg Europa, Enceladus and Titan) and Gliese 581 c and d, recently discovered to be near Earth-mass extrasolar planets apparently located in their star’s habitable zone, and with the potential to have liquid water. Beliefs that …

Another pallasite comes from the ground just 1 month before the first Haviland Meteorite Festival. With the +1500 lb Paul Ross find we had a heck of a show !

Blue Moon is a hypothetical example of a moon on which extraterrestrial life could evolve. The team used a combination of accretion theory, climatology, and xenobiology to imagine the most likely locations for extraterrestrial life and most probable evolutionary path such life would take. Blue Moon orbits an enormous gas giant that is itself orbiting a binary star system. In turn, Blue Moon and its parent gas giant may resemble HD 28185 b and 55 Cancri f, two other real exoplanets.
