Green-something-) that tries to estimate how many planets have life (or could sustain life, I don’t recall exactly). In essence it says that even though the probability of life is so small, the universe is so vast that it’s almost a certainty that it will happen a bunch of times.<br/><br/>Add to this we’re only looking for planets that could sustain life as we understand it.<br/><br/>And <br/><br/>Because the universe is so vast and old the chances of life happening somewhere else and us being able to observe it are still incredibly small. 2025-12-23T03:55:45Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsz53l77h3s6r7fm5zw486aksq4fv3qxfkrhwnvu5eyuv0g8w029kqzyz0qvchh8q3mef9dgq8zd3hjhghkea5adww5ywplye3vskzxams4jxkqhjp In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsytreux7dscjqcxgpmdqgmx4uy5luy83wcn2wy7vgdymyplj5zz6cpyfmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6an9wf5kv6t9vsh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5ysly8p'>nevent1q…ly8p</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>“Yes we burn from the prolonged exposure to heat, as anything does on the planet. That doesn’t mean the sun is bad.”<br/><br/>But your assertion was that you won’t get burnt if you ‘acclimatise’.<br/><br/>“So our bodies evolved to produce melanin over 1,000’s of years of living outdoors and our natural attraction to this is a modern trend?”<br/><br/>Yes, the trend of what is considered ‘attractive’ is cultural not universal and changes over time. Try and find a painting from 18th century England where an ‘attractive’ person is depicted as being tanned. Being tanned meant you were poor and had to work outside for a living. People with ‘porcelain’ skin were considered to be beautiful. 2025-07-28T16:04:48Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqst6njgy2wyk27g8dquk3s9vhze4v28avgv3ayc3spkmnjcvc8pqyszyz0qvchh8q3mef9dgq8zd3hjhghkea5adww5ywplye3vskzxams4jal27e9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqst5dej83zuwl06hn0mjtv4xqkc50j8pqfn0qgjl7ug792w9m4rn7qpydmhxue69uhkummnw3ez6an9wf5kv6t9vsh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59u57tupy'>nevent1q…tupy</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>1) No amount of acclimation can prevent getting sunburn if you spend 4hrs out in the sun in Saudi desert in the summer. I welcome you to prove me wrong g on this.<br/><br/>2) Attraction to the tanned skin is a distinctly western and quite modern ‘trend’. For a lot of Indians paler skin is more desirable and they sell skin whitening products. Until fairly recently in the west very pale skin was considered desirable. 2025-07-28T15:09:05Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsty27ajf57a9rq05r6l0ykcu0wfw83w8lr5qgakeyklf8mqep0u6szyz0qvchh8q3mef9dgq8zd3hjhghkea5adww5ywplye3vskzxams4jev569a In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9mq98jgrv0j39laknlz7qur6xswsnkp6xsk3s4kwm6cmkmpf5qrcppamhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5a7c86l'>nevent1q…c86l</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>If the earth was flat, with a telescope you would be able to see the whole mountain (mentioned in the experiment you referenced) and everything in between not just the top of the mountain. <br/><br/>Likewise from the west cost of the American continent you would be able to see the ice wall.<br/><br/>It seems to me that either of these would be easy enough experiments to perform if you wanted to prove that the earth was flat.<br/><br/>Why do ships disappear over the horizon if the earth is flat?<br/><br/>How could the people who walked across Antarctica do it in the time it took if Antarctica was a ring around the edge?<br/><br/>Why is there 24hr sun as ‘discovered’ by the flat earthers who went to Antarctica.<br/><br/>Every country on earth that has sent astronauts to the ISS must be working together to conspiring against us.<br/> 2025-07-10T15:30:54Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs04esm3tteuzd8tqma789n4lcunc34xm0pw9cktdtdjf95yysjcdgzyz0qvchh8q3mef9dgq8zd3hjhghkea5adww5ywplye3vskzxams4j5tztxr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspqsfdpn294shjz26n2fhvkmemwq5hym6eepl645y5hcvxn2e54mspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgsvyknv'>nevent1q…yknv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Apparently Israel’s end goal is to have everyone hate them but use whatever blackmail leverage they have ensure no one says anything.<br/>Politics is now about personal advancement not public service. 2025-06-09T02:03:20Z
