The vastness of the universe is mind-boggling, with an estimated 200 billion trillion stars. This staggering number is derived by multiplying the average number of stars in a galaxy (100 billion) by the estimated number of galaxies in the universe (2 trillion). This immense quantity of stars, also known as 200 sextillion, serves as a humbling reminder of our place in the cosmos.
The moon of saturn enceladus has a vast salt water ocean that burst out and makes the life giving water that easier for science to study. Why isn’t this a bigger deal.? At one time finding water outside of earth was considered a a discovery that would lead us to believe life could exist elsewhere in the universe.
This is a relatively hot salt water ocean right in our own solar system with and it’s showing the signs that I could harbor life.
How could a human with a mind to think form the opinion that we are in this galaxy alone. There is no way we are the only ones. Our solar system formed much like billions of trillions of other solar systems formed. Why wouldn’t some of those systems create life and when it’s a similar process?
Is it because of religious beliefs and they think the entire universe is void of life because religious text doesn’t tell of other worlds . ?
The thought of a universe so vast I can’t begin to fathom the possibilities being Barren of life. Awasteland of life-giving stars shining upon Infinite number of dead planets. The extremely poor logic that the universe is just for us is extremely arrogant and critically wrong.
Insanity and the belief you’re alone in the universe go hand-in-hand . The logic is extreme foolishness and completely irrational. The universe has more than you can imagine and I know this because I’m here and all that is out there. The fact it is still a debate lets me know we’re not far out of the Bronze Age.
