Don’t talk to aliens, warns Stephen Hawking - Times Online



He concludes that trying to make contact with alien races is ?a little too risky?. He said: ?If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn?t turn out very well for the Native Americans.? ;-)

I agree with him, I think we need to be more cautious. Did you watch the Discovery channel special last night? It was very interesting and having the size of the universe put into perspective was fascinating!

I also read the article - funny I posted it on FB yesterday I think. I found it interesting and would guess that he is correct - I mean it is evolution - survival of the fittest.

It is AMAZING how vast the universe is; MIND BLOWING!

Which reminds me of one of my all time favorites:

YouTube - The Galaxy Song (Re: The Hubble Deep Field)

This isn't original version, but I like the graphics.

If we found a planet we needed that had ants on it, would it slow us down?
