Brian Cox the human universe
« on: January 21, 2015, 08:17:23 PM »
Anyone else watched this awsum documentary series.a realy sensible no bollocks approach to if life exists elsewhere and how it started here.
That life given the right environment. ..given there are billion s of possible unexplored planets will exist.
My question if as in earth's evolution would we merge with a more advanced civilisation or being or would we be enslaved or enslave them.
I can't see the nice nice approach. If they are looking for new environments it's for the same reasons we do.ours is doomed

I'd like to think they were smarter than to judge the world on a game that if you miss you still win :)

So of cartoons are something to go by, which I reckon they are, we just need a rabbit to foil any alien plans.

If aliens do invade I'm going to start a list of people who deserve to be probed  >:D

Dosn't mean it's anything other than knowing no better. I've had a ton of arguments about people asking me if I like it and me being honest.
If they didn't want my opinion they shouldn't ask. Even just the fact it dosn't have offside rules makes it worse than netball

I have not seen the show yet, and it may well be good entertainment however The Guardian is not impressed. Like most subjects there are three or five sides to any discussion.

Headline    "Brian Cox's Human Universe presents a fatally flawed view of evolution"
