Jupiter has plenty of ammonia and methane in its atmosphere. Wonder what they farm there?
Maybe they look like Cows and farm Humans ,LOL
Indeed.... :0)....... why do I get the feeling some government/academician astrophysicist is looking at his funding for the next few years and thinking, “I need to gin up some money until retirement?”
I don’t think they would need food.
I’d envision an advanced planet as:
- an outer layer that is black in the visible spectrum and radiating in the infrared that collects solar energy and radiates waste heat,
- a middle layer consisting of the information processing that does the “thinking” for the planet and is the planetary intelligence.
- a lower layer consisting of robotics and other mobile and material/energy processing systems that maintain the upper layers.
Such planets probably send probes or photon bursts to each other to communicate across interstellar distances. Since the AI systems are essentially immortal, the lengthy wait for return probes and messages is not a problem.

Jupiter, with all that ammonia and methane in it's atmosphere could explode if a research vessels exhaust could ignite it into an explosion.
Perhaps we should ignore further exploration there, before exploration sets off an explosion, which threatens our planet (?)
and our planet is killed off by shrapnel from Jupiter's gasses and further exploration ?
Hey, .. it could happen
This is wonderful news and will confirm there is only one planet with life, ours.
Why, from grocery stores. Ask any shitlib.
Yes, it is true.. I just got a new fruit that I never before and the package had unique writing on it. ‘Grown on Vulcan’ it also said on the package, too. 馃
Why would aliens need to grow their own food when they could visit here and bring the stuff home—humans make such great hors d’oeuvres.
;-)
Good post.
True high tech would make the planet itself intelligent.
Such an intelligence would consider humans as irrelevant as we consider ants—nothing to communicate about....
Meanwhile humans would say “see, we are the only intelligent species in the universe”....
The lesson learned—you can’t fix stupid.
Exoplanets are inhabited by non-farming Bigfoots who always appear out of focus when viewed thru the Web telescope.
"It's A Cookbook!"
Thanks LibWhacker. More generally, that kind of resolution should aid in better mapping of exoplanet surfaces.
