Ok, I'm sorry, but I have studied Newton, Einstein, Hawking, etc. Basically we have come down to "Big Bang Theory". String theory, and quantum mechanics cannot to this day explain gravity. So that's the missing element. But now Hawking, is claiming in his new doccumentry, that aliens may exist, and we should avoid them as they may be "Nomads" (ppl that take over to colonize).
So if big bang is correct, and other theories, how would there be life out there more advanced than us to get here. If there is life out there, it's no far advanced then us, and it's way too far away to get to us.
if there were to be life out there theoretically, then perhaps it could be more advanced than us if it has evolved on a longer timeline than us. human civilization is a relatively new species in comparison to some of the other species that have existed on earth. for instance, if the dinosaurs did not die out and were allowed to evolve to the present day, then as long as they had the necessary parts to evolve then they could theoretically be more advanced than humans.
im more of a quantum mechanics kinda guy anyways...Ozone, are u familiar with Martin Strauss?
