Only one intelligent civilization to a galaxy...................

And here I thought it was nuclear war that was supposed to have killed them off.

Depends on the liberal agenda de jour, apparently.

When a person has no principles, no understanding of science, and no memory or concern about what lies they told yesterday, then they just make up whatever new lie they require at the current moment.

Assuming these weren’t orignal civilizations that evolved on our own planet gazillions of years ago, we’d be talking about extraterrestrials that have some sort of method for moving about the Universe.

I’m down with that. But assuming that high state of technology, why do they keep crashing their space buggies when flying around Earth? Just wonderin’

If our cosmic confreres are advanced enough to be our intellectual peers (or better), they’re clever enough to see the dangers of a star growing old, and do something about it.

Really?

What exactly is to be done about a star growing old?

What are you going to do? Dump Jupiter in to the sun to give it a wee bit more hydrogen?

“Global warming” is bunk.

The Privileged Planet
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmIc42oRjm8&t=926s

THE PRIVILEGED PLANET, utilizing stunning computer animation, interviews with leading scientists, and spectacular images of Earth and the cosmos, explores a startling connection between our capacity to survive and our ability to observe and understand the universe. Is this correlation merely a coincidence? Or does it point to a deeper truth about purpose and intelligent design within the cosmos? THE PRIVILEGED PLANET is based on the book with the same title by Jay Richards and Guillermo Gonzalez. Production began in October 2002 and was completed in June 2004. The documentary presents the Richards/Gonzalez hypothesis that the Earth was designed to both sustain complex life and enable scientific discovery.

Now people are saying UFOs are very quiet. I know why now, Electric UFOs...I knew they are advanced, with electric UFOs...we are doing Telsas, they have UFOs... 😀

[Paul R.]

The time scale for the sun’s brightening is on the order of a billion years, and for most stars even longer

Given a billion years, we (or some alien civilization) would be pretty pathetic to not be able to "parasol" (shade) the Earth well enough to get at least another billion years out of the deal. In 2 billion years, we ought to be able to figure out further strategies, or, just leave.
