Guys! Look what you've done! Sure, this is cool information, but do you really think it constitutes THE BEST YTMND EVER? You give out 5's way too easily. 4 stars is not bad, don't be afraid of it. I'm very tempted to change my vote to a 1, but I won't, because it'll probably damage my reputation more than the site's.
Here is how to blow your mind: think how small the atoms that make you up are, then compare them to the distance between stars.
But on a different note, doubt the galaxiesa re as big and *ss far away as it is said, we use inacurate, and unacurate equiptment. Plus most of these "facts" are assumptions made off a single image. nice job anyways
"this is pretty freaking amazing. but i couldnt read half the text. now, out
of those 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 000s of stars, think how many have
planets...now do you really think that we're the only planet with life on
it?"
The head of SETI has developed a mathematical equation determining the possible amount of civilizations. It's a product of several assumptions, such as "How fast stars form", "What's the probability of said star to have a planetary system", "The probability of said system to have conditions for life", "The probability for that life to develop intelligence".
The problem lies in the last element of the Drake equation: "How long E.T stayed on the air" or "What is the probability that said civilization hadn't destroyed itself"
The last element is truly a number to guess. Based on our guess, the product could be 0 or 10^12. We can't know the final element because we obviously haven't been contacted by extra-terrestrial life before. Also there exists a rather pessimistic "prophecy" (if you will) which states that the higher the techological level of a civilization is, the probability of said civilization to exterminate itself converges to one. That could explain why E.T hasn't phoned yet.
Also c*cks.
^ POS, if it makes you feel any better, there is good reason to believe that everything we know in life is only the very beginning of something far greater. I don't use the term "after-life" because well, death is the beginning of something new, but that new beginning is not "life". Death is not a bad thing, though.
"IMO, this 20sec vid with catchy music>
semister long astron. class." I've already explained my reasoning for downvoting. HOWEVER, if you need to go to an Astronomy class to find out that the Universe is big, then there is something wrong. After realizing that a lot, not all, of the people who fived this never knew any of this...I now realize why intellectual sites that provoke thought get downvoted........*sigh*
Its so scary how many universes there are... just think of how many other humans, or human like creatures there are out there, just think about it theres about 0.0repeating billions of times with a 1 at the end% chance of there not being other living creatures out there... scary, makes me feel... so insignificant.
normally i like ytmnds like this, every so often, just to make you think and to take a break from the funny. but these kinds of sites have become some sort of fad i guess, because ive seen so many like this. and the really sad part is that the only reason this is on the top 5 is because it's one of smoothmedia's sites. come on, seriously. so its not that i dislike these sites, its just how you've, you know, been on the top 5 4,754,962,346,653,635 times, and had any other person (with the exception of mastersitsu, syncan, and max) made this site, it would have recieved 3 votes of a 2 and quietly filtered to the bottom of the ytmnd tank before anyone ever knew.
