NASA discovers Earth’s bigger, older cousin

I don't understand
this search
for another Earth.


There is simply no Reason for another Earth to exist.


There is simply
no Reason
for Life to
exist anywhere
else in the universe.

No reason whatsoever!


Yous cannot even give me one reason...

chuckle, there is much you do not understand.

you form your opinions, your beliefs, in some fantasy land where you are 
all knowing....

your statements attest to not only your ignorance but also indicates an 
extreme failure of imagination....

Starmaker is OK, no need to personally attack him, he is a know quantity 
in sci.physics, and Uncle Al (UA) has an excellent writeup on Starmaker.

However, a poster that uses that lame word  'chuckle' in their post, 
like John Gabriel- the sick troll pushing a misleading NewCalculus is 
questionable,

Instead of 'chuckle'  use  'quack quack' OK?

Translation: You cannot even give me one reason.


I don't accept ...failure.

There is another Earth, in the same orbit,
but on the opposite side of the sun where we cannot see it.
Their is even a movie out about it.

WOW thanks, a Gem of trivia !

  The Counter-Earth is a hypothetical body of the Solar system 
hypothesized by the pre-Socratic philosopher Philolaus (c. 470 – c. 385 
BCE) to support his non-geocentric cosmology, in which all objects in 
the universe revolve around an unseen "Central Fire" (distinct from the 
Sun which also revolves around it). The Greek word Antichthon (Greek: 
Ἀντίχθων) means "Counter-Earth."

Drake Equation is wrong. The numbers are wrong. It's based on the number
that Mars contains life.


didn't anybody tell you that?

I see...no one told you.

this is drake's equation
N = R* x fp x ne x fl x fi x fc x L


the value of  "ne" is 2


planet Earth is one of them, what planet is the second one?

I was bringing you up to speed with Drake's Equation because you brought it up first and you seem to lack
accurate information with what Drake had on his mind.

I'm not interested in 'NASA's Equations'. 

There are a lot of science fiction books on life on other planets and other earth's you might be interested in..
go the book store...it's called The Science Fiction section.

If you have children, have them read science fiction books...

The Drake Equation is one of the simplest concepts in all of science, and yet you apparently don't have any chance to understand it. I was only trying to help you, but that is like talking to a mud fence. As far as I am concerned, you are on your own, and good riddance.


Okay...get ready to commit suicide...(there is a sale of blue razor blades at walmart...hurry.)

N = R* x fp x ne x fl x fi x fc x L
value of  "ne" is 2 (according to Drake himself, and he was thinking of earth and mars)

now, supose that number is wrong...


ne =
,
the
number
of
planets
in
a
given
system
that
are
ecologically
suitable
for
life


Any 'fool' can answer this question.

Now, what number is that?

How many planets do you know that are 

"ecologically suitable for life"????

Lots, they have something like McDonald, and Wall marts, and Air
Condition places.  Also they must have cars to get around the surface.
OR swim fins if it is all water.
  Actually How could I know, I have only been on one.

Here is how Drake thought:

"In our own solar system there are several bodies 
that may be suitable for life of some sort: the Earth 
certainly, and perhaps Mars, Titan and Jupiter. Once 
life originates, it tends to be very adaptable and 
tenacious. There must be many different environments 
suitable for life in a given planetary system. But 
conservatively we choose ne=2."



Now,  Mars, Titan and Jupiter don't have a McDonald's....
so that means ne=2 is incorrect.

Throw The Drake Equation into the garbage can where it belongs. It's garbage!

The next Drake random variable is the number
ne of ‘‘Earth-type’’ planets in a given star system. Taking
example from the Solar System, since only the Earth is
truly ‘‘Earth-type’’, the mean value of
ne is clearly 1, but the standard deviation is not zero if we assume that Mars
also may be regarded as Earth-type. Since there are thus
two Earth-type planets in the Solar System, we must
assume a standard deviation of 1 =2 Earth and Mars.



Now, does anybody here think Mars is "ecologically suitable for life"?

Trash.

In other words...The Drake Equation is mathematicaly a fraud. Drake is a fraud.

That also means...the SETI Institute is which was founded and based on The Drake Equation,
the whole entire SETI Institute project is a fraud.

There are no other earths, there are no other life elsewhere in the universe.


There is no reason why there should be.

(and please, no more fradulent reasons...I will not put up with it.)


There are no other earths, there are no other life elsewhere in the universe.


 There is simply
 no Reason
 for Life or other earths to
 exist anywhere
 else in the universe.
 
 No reason whatsoever!
 
 
 Yous cannot even give me one reason...

yes, SETI is pure fraud.

If there was another earth, the "people" living on it probably won't 
speak English, or call their planet "Earth".

life is something that moves, so, it is out there somewhere. perhaps 
living software on planet X

There is no reason why is should not be there

Understand. There are many here on earth that cannot think that deeply, 
they are limited because of their weak mind.

you can type that out on your keyboard, but that dosen't make it true.
On the otherhand, perhaps you only believe what you can see.

...so there is no reason for life to exist on earth either....

that is what you are trying to say.

NASA estimates 1 billion ‘Earths’ in our galaxy alone

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2015/07/24/nasa-estimates-1-billion-earths-in-our-galaxy-alone/



What does "estimates" mean?



People don't understand what NASA is..

NASA is simply a...company
whose mission is
to search for
Earth and Life
in the universe...

regardless of the
truth that 
other earths and life
don't exist.



In other words, their mantra is:

"We don't give a fuck if earths and life don't exist elsewhere, we got nothin else to do."



They are a fruadelant company.



I don't mind exploring..
just to discover
new things...
but i don't make up
what i will find..
i just see what pops up.

If NASA wants to explore..
they should just
see what is out there
instead of making up
stuff of whats out there.

Yous insult my intelligence.
