Why do many scientists think life is widespread? Is intelligence likely to arise on many worlds? How are we looking for intelligence elsewhere in the cosmos? What would such intelligence be like? What would be the societal reaction to such a discovery?
Are we alone in the universe? The scientific hunt for extraterrestrial intelligence is now well into its fifth decade, and we still haven’t discovered any cosmic company. Could all this mean that finding biology beyond Earth, even if it exists, is a project for the ages - one that might take centuries or longer?
Hold on to your chairs party-science people: Seth Shostak, for several years director of SETI - the centre for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence - is coming to town!
New approaches to detecting life suggest that there is good reason to expect a discovery of microbic organisms on other worlds soon, and that we could uncover evidence of sophisticated civilizations - the type of aliens we see in the movies and on TV - within a few decades.
Why this might be more than wishful thinking and what contact would mean is exactly what Seth Shostak will discuss as part of continuing efforts to establish our place in the universe of living things.
Seth is a great talker
Seth is far too good for this planet
Seth is better than many comedy shows.
Seth rocks
Seth is the most entertaining speaker on this topic, bar none.
I love this guy
"If you live forever, all trips are the same length." Bam!
Should have more views
Seth gave a talk in Copenhagen? Damn, I wish I had known, I would have gone there.
@ Zap
Same, but than for his time in The Netherlands.
Yes, he was in Groeningen (?) for years right? But that was before he joined the SETI Institute I think.
Where is the second part? Anybody knows?
Yeah, the Q&A part would be nice.
Seth is the best
This (and all other talks by this man on youtube are word-to-word the same) are great in a sense they help blow up old myths to free up room for new ones
He's also not funny 🙄🙄
I love graphs !!!!!
Keep looking
The answer to the Fermi Paradox. There is a beautiful loving Universe many people claim they experience when they are undergoing an NDE. Long before any Advanced Civilization gains the technology necessary for Interstellar Travel - they find a way to escape to that Universe. In other words, it is technologically easier to get to that other very pleasant and safer place, than it is to develop the Type II Civilization Technology necessary for Interstellar Travel. This explains why we have found no sign of an Advanced Alien Civilization anywhere in our Universe.
Can't they see the light reflecting off Earth from all the cities? (except N Korea)
Robert W pyongyang is lit! Lol
only place really without light pollution unless in the woods or deserts(prob mostly drowned out by the surrounding cities and burbs) even then there an occasional lamp from a traffic light or advertisment etc...
Robert W That light hasn't travelled that far into space.
nearest star is 4.55 light years i guess so they would see a forming solar system if they see through the dust
Robert W Only some thousand stars would be exposed to that light, add to that, the contrast from city lights vs our sun which is a few photons to a whole lot, so maybe if they have a way to filter that? Then it would be possible, but definetely science fiction for us.
I wish I could ask him about area 51 and also what about the videos people have taken about mysterious objects in the sky... I mean one of it has to be genuine!
But overall great information given by him. Thanks
Suhail K ...he’s not interested at all he ignores and dismisses all the evidence....if it’s true it puts him out of a job.
+Steve G If Disclosure is just around the corner...then all eyes will fall on sheepish Seth! He will have to hide at the end of the universe.
Alan Chong ....Alan...have you seen Tom DeLonge and the ‘to the stars academy ‘ ?.....I have followed this subject for the last 45 years having seen a saucer come overhead one evening in the 70’s. This is disclosure...it’s going to be painful for Seth as he has always kicked into the long grass any suggestion that we are already being visited. They are now putting out videos that show just the opposite. They are now on video 3 and there;s a hell of a lot more to come....Seth will need a stiff drink in the following months.....it;s going to hit him like a steam train.... but if you will lie on the tracks.....
+Steve G The thing about Seth is his arguments don't have any legs to stand on. He ignores all the credible evidence that investigators have put up. I reckon he is being paid off handsomely to refute the existence of alien visitations.
I've met him before, he wants irrefutable proof. Wants to shake hands with an alien. Why is that so hard for you ppl to believe? As a scientist, that's what he requires. Just because the case is solved in your eyes based on what evidence that is out there, you seem to want to target him because it's not enough evidence for him. Remind me again where you all got your PHD'S at?
#lesterstravels
Your move SETI
Subatomic not radio
Dudr oh my god EVERYTHING i know
We already found alien intelligence: DNA code
Why does he keep talking about Danish, Copenhagen and Denmark? Was this lecture given there?
Bunny obviously
Lol. Way Better jokes then Michio!!!
The obvious answer is that the aliens are here, they have been here a long time, and they are running the place. : - )
nice suppositions, show me the evidence
Tiresome
Seti.....
This is searching ,searching for the truth ,and the truth do matters ,there is a mystery to be unfold ,there is a questions to be answer ,and the progession is slow, and the life time is too short ,it is so frustating that there is more , and i have to die before i know , truth do matters , now seti exactly doing , what needs to be done ,because TRUTH matters.
Pls donate........Novi.
Dhan Rai ...get real...aliens have been visiting earth for thousands of years. Disclosure is now being rolled out through Tom DeLonge and the ‘to the stars a academy’.....don’t waste your time or money with Seth Shostak.
@@MultiBikerboy1 wtf i think i'm having a stroke from laughing so hard..Tom delonge he needs help he's unwell . To the stars academy is nothing more than a money making exercise period and to claim anythink else is sheer stupidity ? Tdl is just following in the foot steps of that other bull shit artist Dr steven greer enough said of him .You see steve extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence sadly he has none. I would love for an alien species to visit and make itself known to all but sadly that's not happened has it if were being truthful were back to the evidence thing again. Don't waste your time and money with seth shostak last time i was looking it was tom delonge and his Academy that was asking for money erm....... It is better to keep one's mouth closed and be thought a fool ,than to open it and remove all doubt . But you did make me laugh and i thank you for that Steven G.......
QUANTUMquest The billionaire salesman cowboy ......I’ve seen a saucer I KNOW this tec exists.....so...guess ya never invested in the TTSA before the cut off this Sept... no problem...keep laughing and I’ll speak to ya in 5 years...one of us is going to be the schmuck.
Our first emissary to the stars is Adolf Hitler opening the Berlin Olympic games......Let that sink in.
That transmission was of such low power it could barely be picked up at the outskirts of Berlin -- your implication, that the evil Nazi ideology would be recognized ... is entirely false. Recognition of such content would require profound and in depth comprehension of human culture, this is knowledge a distant alien society would not posses.
It's not the first.
There must be intelligent life out there, but given the sequence of luck you need to develop intelligent life, it is probably so rare it might as well be non existent. This planet has been around for billions of years and its only in the last 250,000 years intelligent life has arisen. Further people often state there are multi trillions of potential worlds where life could develop. I believe this argument is irrelevant. We should be looking what are the chances of life just simply developing on a planet. If it is incredibly small, the number of potential planets will also be incredibly small - 100 * 5 = 500. But 100 * 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000005 is a very small number indeed. Get my drift?
You disprove your argument by your initial sentence alone. Intelligent life does end up appearing at some point. And like it did here, the same inevitably happens elsewhere. This is really the greatest evidence of extraterrestrial life, insofar as making it an obvious and undeniable reality: The fact that it exists here. There is really nothing that makes this planet a cosmic anomaly. It developed out of solar dust like every other planet. And as conditions changed throughout its existence, life changed too. Life not only adapted to changing conditions, but shaped the evolution of the planet itself. This obviously happens in billions or trillions of other planets, as does intelligent life, which also has the unique ability to migrate to other planets when conditions become unfavourable in the current one. Look at life here, look at its diversity and the diversity of environments in which it thrives, not just now but throughout this planet's history. That tells you all you need to know about the possibility of life in other planets.
Correction: you cannot number the stars. They are countable. The stars cannot be counted. For God made them like the sand of the sea that cannot be counted, Just as God promised Abraham that He will bless Abraham and make his seed like stars of the heavens and multiply him like the sand of the sea and Abraham will be a father of many nations. You will not be able to count his seed.
Secondly,
Y we r not exploring milky-way galaxy
We are!
The constant jokes is off putting. We get it, you’re witty.
"As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of man." "Men were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage. They were completely ignorant until the flood came and took them all." Matthew
And, there were certainly and most definitely extra-terrestrial visitors from the heavens. They took the daughters of men as wives to themselves and breeded fallen angels & human hybrids which became giants (the Nephilium). And for this reason, God destroyed that entire generation with the great flood through Noah. For only Noah found grace and favour in the eyes of the Lord God of Noah, Seth, Adam and Enoch which was the same God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Lmao. Were you there?? 🤣😂🤣
Gotta love it when people have all the answers to something they're completely clueless about. You can't learn anything if you think you know everything.
we found aliens on Enceladus (a fish).
Robert bigelow said they are already here, they are just under our noses. And that guy knows A LOT.
Anonymous Anonymous ...they certainly are!
They work at Walmart.
They invaded 1492.
Daar zijn we te nuchter voor ... Daar zijn we te nuchter voor , Translate to englesh , We are too sober for ? WTF ? Does it mean?
No funding and no career opportunities for radio astronomers doing that in the Netherlands maybe.
We are too sober for that. Meaning, the Dutch are too reasonable to look for aliens.
Sorry, but we are all alone in the universe. Forget about finding any aliens.
You can say all you want but saying going through a black hole prove it in show some proof other than a very pretty picture
Condisending doesnt make u funny
The intro talked about science. Science is "the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment."
Seth does not really cover any science in this presentation. He refers to various scince fiction stories about alien life.
His "work" of listening to radio signal searches could be classified as "observations" but they should not, because he has made no observations. Looking is not the same as seeing.
I don't know what he receives monetarily from these lectures, but since he has nothing to show for over 25 years of hoping to find something, whatever it is, he is overpaid. All of this extraterrestrial interest is based on the failed concept of abiogenesis, that is, the appearance of life from nonliving chemical reactions.
There is absolutely no scientific basis for this idea. The simplest living cell is more complicated than a large city. Could you postulate that the modern city of New York appeared all at once from random tree growth? No. Engineers, architects, city planners, construction workers, and many other intelligent workers are responsible for the city we see there.
What Seth offers is a fairy tale more unbelievable than Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny.
Look through a microscope and see the real story of the complexity of life. James Tour, Michael Behe.
A fake comedy shame
This guy is a repressed comedian.... He should probably be working Vegas... Not a serious subject
40 years with no results and millions wasted...Give me some mic time SETH....why don't they want that?
theres noway Seth knows what he's talking about....He didn't even mention TIME.....they don't want any part of a conversation that solves a problem....SETI IS A LIE
When will we find aliens? That's easy...We won't as long as you are in charge of looking/hiding them...lol. Isn't the game up by now. Retire Seth and leave alien hunting to a new generation of honest brokers. It's time.(=
Haha. That's brilliant! Well said! Is Seth really that dumb or has he been paid off to keep debunking and deliberately not find anything. I actually believe the latter. He's like John Allen Hynek. Paid to debunk on behalf of the airforce. Only difference is Hynek started to use some independent thinking. Maybe Seth should also try using his brain for a change and not just be a mouthpiece.
