What lurks in the deep black of our universe?

Sure you may have heard the name before but have you ever thought to stop and spend time devoted to thinking about what it may be and the implications of such an incredibly large concept.  Well stop and think, we have yet to understand the universe which is so large we don’t even know whether or not it ends. Billions of galaxy’s with trillions of stars and god only knows how many planets. Some say that it is mathematically impossible for humans to be the only intelligent life in the universe

Scientists today are already discovering earth like planets to far away for travel with our current technology and these are just the immediate stars surrounding us. And on top of that we don’t even know whether or not life can be based on anything other than carbon. That means that theoretically there could be life based on gasses like helium for example which would make it legitimately possible for life to be found on gaseous planets including giants like Jupiter. But then who’s to say humans would even recognize it as life.

The possibility that there is life also means that there is the possibility that we are all that is left. Earth may very well be the last planet left with life. Who’s to say other planets have not been raped by their inhabitants much like earth today is becoming polluted. It is possible that all other lives in the universe have been burnt out except for ours. Our sun will one day become a black hole and by that time humans will have had to flee for their lives. Meaning it will become impossible for us not too need to move to another planet capable of sustaining us.

If its true that we will have to migrate what if we have already migrated to earth. Some scientists theorize that earth is much older than we think and that previous ice ages have wiped out civilizations mightier than our own….

    Very nice really makes you think. I’ve had a few thoughts kind of like this of my own.
