【龙腾网】有关黑暗森林理论的讨论,可怕的科学理论(12)
Imagine looking for a lit candle placed 100 miles away on an intensely bright, sunny day. Or imagine dumping a gallon of dyed water in the ocean. There is literally no possibility that either one could be detected by any methods we can conceive, now or in the future.
Neither is it likely that any other civilization could do any better at any level of technology.
不管我们接收无线电信号的能力如何,任何这样的信号传播的距离都是有限的,并且仍然可以与宇宙的背景辐射区分开。这有点像试图探测到掉在大洋另一边的水里的卵石。这在任何理论技术下都是不可能的。
想象一下,在一个阳光灿烂的日子里,你正在寻找100英里外一支点燃的蜡烛。或者想象一下把一加仑染色的水倒进海里。无论现在还是将来,用我们能想到的任何方法都不可能检测到其中任何一种情况。
其他任何文明在任何技术水平上都不可能做得更好。

True. I think the anthropomorphic tendency apply here. We humans have the belief that if extra-terrestrial life exists, it will be like ours.
没错。我认为同形同性倾向也适用于此。我们人类相信,如果外星生命存在,它就会像我们一样。
Eric Andrew
Brains are merely concentrations of nerve cells (ganglia) that cluster closest to the sensory organs for efficiency. An evolutionary trend known as cephalization. It is not necessary for intelligence. A brain is like a server room. A group of computers close to each other for faster processing and easier maintenance. But the same number of computers connected through other means from different rooms achieves the same effect, albeit less efficient.
