So everything is flipped on it's head now when it comes to looking for life on other planets.

Not anymoreArsenic based life form discovered with a completely different dna structure then every other living thing on earth.

Why? That is also a possibility. How can you know?
It definitely is yes
Same with looking at the night sky, if you look at it scientifically it´s not just a glowing dot in the sky.
you have a beam of light that travelled across the whole galaxy which hit and interacted with your eye.
Amazing really.
On 23rd of April 2009, scientists detected a gamma-ray burst (when a stars core collapses into a black hole)
"Gamma-ray bursts can tell us some very interesting things about the universe," Nemiroff said. In this case, those three photons recorded by the Fermi telescope suggest that spacetime may not be not as bubbly as some scientists think.
Some theories of quantum gravity say that the universe is not smooth but foamy—made of fundamental units called Planck lengths that are less than a trillionth of a trillionth the diameter of a hydrogen atom.
Planck lengths are so small that there's no way to detect them, except via photons like those that make up gamma-ray bursts. Here's why. The wavelengths of these photons are some of the shortest distances known to science—so short they should interact with the even smaller Planck length.
And if they interact, the photons should be dispersed—scattered—on their trek through Planck length–pixilated spacetime. In particular, they should disperse in different ways if their wavelengths differ, just as a ping pong ball and a softball might take alternate paths down a gravely hillside. You wouldn't notice the scattering over short distances, but across billions of light years, the Planck lengths should disperse the light. And three photons from the same gamma-ray burst should not have crashed through the Fermi telescope at the same moment. But they did, and that calls into question just how foamy spacetime really is.
"We have shown that the universe is smooth across the Planck mass," Nemiroff said. "That means that there's no choppiness that's detectable. It's a really cool discovery. We're very excited."
MASSIVE advances in aerodynamics
Engineers are closer to understanding, and therefore manipulating, invisible aerodynamic drag forces, that cause an estimated 50 per cent of transportation fuel to be lost before we can use it.
Director of Monash University's Laboratory for Turbulence Research in Aerospace and Combustion (LTRAC) Professor Julio Soria, said the technology to visualise these forces, which by causing drag or wind resistance, waste energy, was now available. Understanding and controlling these forces could lead to significant financial and environmental savings. "We are trying to understand the turbulent boundary layer - the region right next to objects' surfaces that causes drag on aeroplanes, ships, trains, trucks - all vehicles, as well as the resistance to flow of water, oil and gas in pipes" Professor Soria said.
The LTRAC team is working on ways to manipulate this layer to control and reduce drag and increase aerodynamic efficiency. "Based on Airbus estimates, even a 10 per cent reduction of this drag would result in a fuel savings corresponding to about 25 per cent of the operational cost," Professor Soria said.
The mechanics of turbulence of the boundary layer have remained a mystery because the structure of the boundary layer changes dramatically and unpredictably depending on the size of the object, its orientation and its speed. Further, it is almost impossible to effectively measure and analyse the conditions on a large object like the wing of an aircraft in motion.
Despite the challenges, Professor Soria and his team are making progress by taking advantage of two super computer facilities - the Multi-modal Australian ScienceS Imaging and Visualisation Environment (MASSIVE) at Monash and the National Computational Infrastructure in Canberra. "We couldn't do these very large computations and visualisations without MASSIVE. To load and visualise this much data you need a supercomputer," Professor Soria said. "Now we have better technology, we're seeing phenomena that we couldn't see before, and so didn't account for. As we delve deeper into the structure of the turbulent boundary layer, we find effects that we didn't even consider." Professor Soria said the turbulent flows the team is visualising are unpredictable, but not random. They can see patterns and can observe the lifespan of clearly identifiable coherent structures in what seems to the naked eye to be a random flow.
"Once we understand this, we can design surface control strategies that manipulate the turbulent boundary layer to minimise drag which will result in more efficient vehicles, and less energy losses in the transport of liquids and gas in pipes. This will also reduce the amount of CO2 we produce, and the pain in our hip pockets."

So when people say "well we have to take into consideration that we are alone" I just laugh as hard as i can.
but that is impossible to do with you because you just ignore whatever is put in front of you that you simply can not answer.Let's continue on the line in the last videos/posts, let's not turn this into another ufo/conspiracy thread that did more harm than good. So, only real science please, no pyramid videos.
