    there's an infinite amount of other planets out there, it's retarded to not think at least ONE FUCKING other planet has life.

    What no

    mass in the universe is not infinite

    there's only about seventy septillion stars, too Not all of those have planets, less than half, probably

    seventy septillion is pretty much infinite. have you ever seen one septillion of something? doubtful. Even half of that means that there has to be life out there besides earth. the odds against it are astronomical. it's retarded to assume life on earth is all there is.

    god damn when will you idiots realize that the best comics are rarely the well-drawn ones

    Because the art is half of the medium. If a comic has shit art and good writing, it is not, by definition, a good comic because a comic includes both parts. It's merely a good narrative or story or whatever you want to call it.

    It's like saying that "the best TV shows are rarely the ones with good acting." No one would say that because it's fucking retarded. Acting is part of a TV show. Sure, the writing and the story and the effects and camera work may all be the best ever, but it's still a shit TV show if no one can act.

    Dilbert is an example where good art was not mandatory to success.

    "Good" and "successful" are not the same things.

    Seventy septillion isn't even close to infinite you fucking mong

    no number that has a defined value is

    I think this conversation would benefit if we could all look up the Drake equation. Surprise, depending on your values for the constants, the probability of extant life somewhere in the universe besides us can be anywhere from 0 to 1! And, double surprise, it is impossible to determine the true value of those constants!

    As I understand it, it's almost impossible to tell if a star has a planet or not because the damn things barely give off any light and that light is from it's sun, which outshines it. So, it's unclear just how many stars have planets and how common terrestrial planets are.

    And even if only half of those starts have planets, that's still a pretty good chance that life will have formed.

    The Fermi Equation is going to be the name of my math-rock band...just as soon as I learn to play an instrument...or add.

    We've all seen seventy septillion of something. You could probably do it in one sitting, too. They're called atoms...

    I don't think we'll ever meet a sentient alien species.

    I think they're there, I just think we'll go extinct before we can find each other.


    It just seems like a nice punchline to humanity. We're not alone, but functionally we are. All banging our fists on the glass bubble seperating us from the rest of the universe, screaming soundlessly for attention.

    This is intentional right

    you know The Fermi Paradox and the Drake Equation are two separate things (In fact they are opposites)

    A number as large as seventy SEP-FUCKING-TILLION might as well be infinite, since I doubt any human brain can comprehend a number that large. I know it's not infinite, and I was not using the term literally. If you can count to septillion without dying from old age, be my guest. I'll go right on saying it may as well be infinite.

    That number exists for a reason, otherwise they would just say "infinite."

    In English, in Philosophy, in Archeology, the number septillion is useless, but not in Astronomy. That's why the number exists: Because it has a fucking use.
