Planets and Surface Life – Wednesday 1st November 2023
Looking for planets with surface life in the habitable zone. Firstly, in my view, the majority of planets in outer space aren’t suited to surface life nor do they need surface life.
The requirements for a planet like Earth are enormous. The likelihood of a tumbleweed style formation achieving surface life, in my view, is going to be most unlikely. And it’s going to absolutely require a moon. We seem to have this idea that if a planet is in the right warmth zone then we are on track. But I don’t believe that to be the case.
There is so much going into a planet like Earth, and it requires our Sun to maintain it throughout the billions of years.
Making this planet was sort of like making a cake and you can only get it right, by the same method that a scientist uses in a lab.
That’s exactly what our solar system looks like to me, a very large laboratory working to get it right.
And when I look, there is only one entity I can see capable of having done this, ie., Earth, life, it’s moon and the beauty that’s been created and supported in order for life to exist. And I can easily fathom a molecular, highly intelligent consciousness existing for billions of years, doing just that.
We study our surrounds, if we rattled around for billions of years, we could or would try something on that scale if we realised it was within our capabilities.
So, I do see the mocking that goes on, but if you can take your mind and consider such an entity that is very large and molecular in form, that knows love and seeks beauty, then this planet makes perfect sense.
We, unfortunately, tend to take it for granted.
But if you truly believe that Earth and it’s Moon are purely random tumbleweeds with all that we know at this time that’s required for surface life, then you would have to think that the chance of there being another planet like this is almost impossible.
Yet we are looking. How unique is our star amongst all the others? I would say it’s very unique, but I would also say there are those that share that uniqueness and there will our best chance of finding another planet like Earth.
They all appear to have their specific purpose, if that’s correct, then what determines that purpose?
Perhaps it’s like us, we have a purpose, we didn’t choose it but it’s our purpose just the same.
Being molecular means you have no need of material items, no desire for such items. Your intellect would expand to a degree that would make ours seem primitive, you would want to create beauty, love would be expansive. You wouldn’t be thinking, how can I rip off that man’s or woman’s work and make a bundle. That’s the primitive minds pursuit. You’d wonder if you could find a way to be able to touch the being you love, if you weren’t able to. I’m cellular so I cannot know what can be experienced at the molecular level, but I am quite sure that experience, it does.
We are now just discovering the ‘molecular world’ and it will change us, in time.
