A galactic network of alien civilisations sharing images of their pets, nothing else....

Kinda ironic handing a 'Lifetime Achievement' award to someone when he calculates that the collective 'lifetime' of our species is nearly up. 😉

RE: https://bolesblogs.com/2026/04/19/below-the-mesh/
Two things I've always thought about the Fermi Paradox
1) We don't know what technology They use, so it's just guesswork as to what we're looking for. A bit presumptuous to write off the whole Universe as empty.
2) The Universe is BIG and we're barely explored it yet, we've only been listening for radio for about a 100 Earth years, that's nothing in this big old universe. And who wants to communicate at the Speed of Light? -

It’s about part of the #Fermi_Paradox #FermiParadox -
“Great Silence” in narrowband radio technosignature searches over the past several decades may be caused by spectral broadening in interplanetary medium.
Turbulent plasma near distant stars could blur ultra-narrow signals before they leave their home star systems, making them difficult to detect.

"Narrowband radio technosignatures can be significantly modulated by the host star’s exoplanetary interplanetary medium (Exo-IPM), where turbulence in stellar winds and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) imprint spectral broadening. ..

🌌 The Fermi paradox begins with a simple question: a universe rich with stars and worlds, and a sky that still feels quiet. How do we separate a true signal from our own interference, and what might silence be telling us?

@alvar
Das #FermiParadox war für mich nie schlüssig. Bei den Distanzen müssten die Aliens entweder soviel länger leben als wir, dass ein Kontakt eh nicht sinnvoll wäre, oder die Relativitätstheorie ist so falsch wie es kein Physiker annimmt.Aliens, die Kontakt mit uns aufnehmen können, müssten uns heute immer noch wie Götter vorkommen. Und Däniken hatte trotzdem nicht recht.

maybe we haven't been visited by aliens because they look at our rating and go "just One star? eww I'll pass"

Unintentional "leaked signals" are millions-fold weaker than intentional #METI signals 📶. Given the number of messages already sent to target stars https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_SETI#Transmissions, do you expect a reply

Are you alone is (usually) a relatively easy question to answer...
But are WE (e.g., life on Earth) alone (in the Universe) is a bit more complex...
Enter the Drake Equation for some of your important are we alone pondering...

Wieder hat Steven #Spielberg die Ankündigung eines Alien - #Apokalypse - Thrillers gekonnt in der #Vorweihnachtszeit platziert.
Schon der Trailer von "Disclosure Day" - deutsch: Enthüllungstag, also Tag der Enthüllung - zeigt eine christliche #Ordensschwester , die das #Fermiparadox religiös zitiert: Warum sollte #Gott ein so großes #Universum nur für uns erschaffen haben?

Weekly Update from the Open Journal of Astrophysics – 06/12/2025
Once again it’s time for the usual Saturday morning update of the week’s new papers at the Open Journal of Astrophysics. Since the last update we have published a further six papers, which brings the number in Volume 8 (2025) up to 190, and the total so far published by OJAp up to 425. I blogged about the significance of the latter figure here.
The first paper this week is “The galaxy-IGM connection in THESAN: observability and information content of the galaxy-Lyman-alpha cross-correlation at z>6” by Enrico Garaldi (U. Tokyo, Japan), Verena Bellscheidt (Tech. U. Munich, Germany), Aaron Smith (U. Texas Austin, USA) and Rahul Kannan (York U. Canada). This paper was published on Monday 1st December 2025 in the folder Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics. It describes an investigation of the impact of observational limitations on the ability to retrieve the intrinsic galaxy-Lyman-alpha cross correlation from line-of-sight observations.

Vílchez ( (Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía, Spain), Igor A. Zinchenko (LMU, Germany), Asier Castrillo, Marta Gavilán, Sandra Zamora & Ángeles I. Díaz (Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Spain). This was published on 1st December 2025 in the folder Astrophysics of Galaxies. This study uses the emission lines produced in the optical part of the spectrum and with photoionization models to derive sulphur chemical abundances in the gas-phase of star-forming galaxies.

A visitor from another star system, 3I/ATLAS, is currently journeying through our celestial neighborhood.
My latest article explores this fascinating thought experiment: What if we detected a signal from 3I/ATLAS, encoded in the Fibonacci sequence—the mathematical blueprint of life itself?

Wishful thinking. Billions and billions spent, terabytes of data, thousands of searchers, decades of nitpicking study, and not one empty matchbook, not a sniff, not an atom out of place in a very very big Petrie dish.
Hopeful sure, even excited for the search, but the unlikeliness, the fragility, of this gossamar exception, is also fascinating and enervating.
And frightening. Its really very easy for a planet to fail.

I wrote a book.
It is called "For the hypothetical aliens" and it is about our place in the universe, how we relate to nature, and what that means for us, individually.
It takes a stance somewhat centred on the dissonance between a SciFi way of looking at things vs. "realism".
It's about 40 pages of actual poetry plus the contents page, acknowledgements etc and (warning) it does contain one five page poem purporting to be about a mathematical equation...
The usual price is £5 but I am discounting them to £4 at the moment. Shipping in the UK is £1.80.
If you live elsewhere in the world we'll have to strategize because there have been problems sending pamphlets/magazines from the UK since Brexit 😢.
If you want to order one, or invite me to read from it at your poetry evening, please PM me.

."The current price for HIV treatment is $42,250(!) per patient per year(!) "They say the #fermiparadox solutions list is getting longer by the day.

Looking at that there https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_far_future and it seems Multicellular life of the sort we adore only has a billion years of viability on Earth, whether a technological species fucks things up temporarily or not.

The unsurprising non-detection of intelligent #aliens
Life arose on Earth very early on. After a few billion years, here we are: intelligent and technologically advanced. Where's everyone else?
The #DrakeEquation, while popular to solve the #FermiParadox, has some problems.
