To buy an apartment or a house?

You may be thinking to buy an apartment or single family house.

A single family house gives you more rooms to grow plants, flowers, trees, veggie, offer more storage space, no apartment management fee. . You also own the land. But you need to pay more and may have financial pressure for mortgage, do the maintenance, landscaping and repairs.

For apartment, you pay less, more security. It is often more affordable, require fewer maintenance and landscaping chores, suit busy lifestyles. But you only own the space between walls, pay management fee, less space for long term price increment.

No chance to meet aliens

 
 We always think that we will contact aliens one day in future, or alien spaceships already spy on us. We have a lot movies and TV series  for aliens.  We fight aliens and we finally win. I think that we have no chance to contact aliens as the Universe is too big and the maximum speed in Universe is the light speed.

In the recent BBC series, the renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking warns over making contact with aliens. But I believed that we have no chance making contact with aliens.

 If we believe in that the life is the product of nature laws, there should be millions of stars existing life. Some of them may have much higher civilization and technology than us as our civilization is just starting. We should see these aliens visiting us. What prevents these higher civilization aliens finding us? The only answer is the Physics law.

As we know, the light speed is the maximum speed of Universe. The alien spaceships may take thousands of years to reach us. But there may be no enough energy for a spaceship to travel thousands of years to cross so many stars with the speed of light.

If those smart aliens can not reach us, how can we break technology barrier to contact them?

Video: Searching for life On other Planets ( we are NOT alone )
Scientist saying that they are trying to find life on other planets and they follow the water to find life, of course there is life out there and if you want my opinion on this , well i think we are being visited by extra -dimensional beings ( aliens ).

How will our human being civilization end

End of Human Civilization

 We may feel that our human is somehow special, super  and immune to extinction. We create great civilization and become master of our earth.  Can our civilization stay forever? From out of Africa, we only exist 200,000 years. We may not have better luck than dinosaurs, who existed 165 million years. There are many natural and man made disasters that could wipe us out.

The one biggest risk in short term may be from ourselves. We can not control human overpopulation, which may cause infectious disease, lack of food, pollution, war, even nuclear war. Scientific accidents may kill us too, like a child playing bombs. The virus spread and global weather change may end our civilization too.

For the long term, earthquake, volcano, giant meteor smashing into the earth, and alien invasion may cause our civilization end.

If everything is OK and we do our best, we may not run out of the doomdays of the nature laws.

Final termination of our human being is that our Sun dies, which will happen in 5 billion years. As the Sun grows old, it will expand, cool down and run out of hydrogen and then helium. Finally it will become a red giant star.

Even we are lucky and escape to another planet, Galaxies will collide in 7 billion years and the Milky Way ends. If we can run out of the Milky way, the Universe will end in 3 trillion years from now. There will be no normal matter and no time.

Could life be evolved from metals?

Carbon may not be the only source for life evolution. It may be  possible that life in universe can be evolved from metals.   Dr. Cronin and his research  team in a lab at the University of Glasgow, UK try to construct complex functional molecular architectures that are not based on biologically derived building blocks. The new inorganic life building blocks are large "polyoxometalates" made of a range of metal atoms – most recently tungsten – linked to oxygen and phosphorus. These building blocks can lead to membranous inorganic chemical cells iCHELLs. Metal oxide based membranes for containment, growth and division by osmotically driven morphogenesis and information storage in molecular metal oxides will eventually be able to synthesis an inorganic chemical cell capable life-like function.

Polyoxometalate

If  Dr.Cronin is right, the new search for extraterrestrial life will be widely open. Our understanding of biology and evolution will be changed. We not only search carbon based life, we also look for no-carbon based life. We may be able to synthesis an inorganic metal based live cell on earth in near future. If life-forms are encoded in universe like physics law based on Molecular Darwinisim, we will discover them one by one as we did in the elements of the chemical periodic table.

Video: Lee Cronin: Making matter come alive
 In this video, chemist Lee Cronin attempts to create a fully inorganic cell using a "Lego kit" of inorganic molecules -- no carbon -- that can assemble, replicate and compete.

2012 Apocalypse- will doomsday come in 2012?

In ancient Mayan calender,cataclysmic or trans-formative events will occur on December 21, 2012. This date is regarded as the end-date of a 5,125-year-long cycle in the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar.

Doomsday fanatics claim the life on Earth will come to an end in December 2012. I don't believe that it will happen in 2012. I do not see any evidence till now. There is no concrete science evidence for this prediction. But I do believe that it may happen in next 1000 years or next 10,000 years. One year scale is too small in universe.

The video about 2012 Apocalypse from Discovery Channel is quite interesting and explains these well.
Video: DISCOVERY CHANNEL: 2012 Apocalypse
December 21, 2012. Doomsday fanatics claim that this is when life on Earth will come to an end. But what does science have to say about this looming apocalypse? What real threats could possibly bring about cataclysmic changes on Earth in 2012?
