I just get a load of links about, well, the dart asteroid thing and NASA?

Well here is < slaps down fiver (with old queens head) on the table > my money that says you are using some non standard browser locked down tighter than Houdini's box under water

I didn't get it but I now realise you need to specifically open Google search and do it, not just put the phrase in your browser address bar.

It works for me from the address bar (Chrome).
|
So it does. It didn't yesterday for me!! (Edge)

Had to explain it to SWMBO.

Oops..Meant to go elsewhere

Let us suppose that an intelligence was looking for a ready made space object on which to make a home, either temporarily or a longer term basis for exploratory purposes, ( Humans on Moon, or Mars for example? = altho with the current state of this planet, I am not sure of using the word ' intelligence' is appropriate!)
Using an asteroid for long term high speed travel around the universe could be a viable option for a suitably advanced micro civilisation. Along comes NASA, wipes out an established base. What better excuse for the home base to decide they have had enough of 'earth' - one press of a button and our current problems are over, we are history?
OK, wanderings of a over active imagination, but do we really believe we are alone?

No, Truss is obviously from another planet.

>>but do we really believe we are alone?
After years, nay, decades of searching for extra terrestrial life, of sending signals through space inviting others to communicate with us a message is received back.
It takes our best scientist years to decode the deliberately short message:
"Hush, or they'll hear you!!!"
|
>> do we really believe we are alone?
God knows.
|
>>OK, wanderings of a over active imagination, but do we really believe we are alone?
No...but given the vastness of space and the fleetingness of our (and possibly their) existence in a more or less intelligent form, it seems likely that we might never encounter any of the others.
