The old days of the purely visual comet hunter are pretty much over ... Leer más

    Seventy-Five Solutions to the Fermi Paradox and the Problem of Extraterrestrial Life

    de Stephen Webb ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Given the fact that there are perhaps 400 billion stars in our Galaxy alone, and perhaps 400 billion galaxies in the Universe, it stands to reason that somewhere out there, in the 14-billion-year-old cosmos, there is or once was a civilization at least as advanced as our own. The sheer enormity of the numbers almost demands that we accept the truth of this hypothesis. Why, then, have we ... Leer más
