on the peak of an immense mountain
makes olympic at
and is the best settled for this
the stunning truth emerged
that the mountain on mars was indeed
that gigantic volcano
so geologically
mas was not a dead planet after all
vast stretch marks on the planet show that mars surface is shifting and
changing on a colossal scale
mars is beginning to look
geologically at least
more like two years
unless like the mold
on the new evidence of water
begun to turn up in surprising ways
among the many crowds in the martian atmosphere
some of them song to be composed of water
then close-ups of the surface of the gun to turn up strange scene u_s_ patterns
some compare with the patterns cut into the surface of our own planets
by the mississippi river
slowly the interpretation emerged
that only a fluid
flowing continuously over the martian surface
could have caused such patterns of erosion
some scientists didn't agree
but astronomer carl sagan
theorize that most indeed contained a great deal more water than we suppose
for the matrimonial opportunites crosses permafrost
during ice age time such as the president
but during cycles of warmth
when the polar caps release gases to form a heavier atmosphere
the water may be released into clouds
such clouds could be the planet in rains
for thousands
perhaps millions of years
if satan's interpretation is correct
life could have originated on mars
in favorable cycles
and may have adapted itself
to harsher conditions as they developed
and indeed
may exist on mars
to the station

even as they prepared research director
beyond the planet earth
flying by jupiter's
pioneer ten
confirmed estimates that within its atmosphere uh... combinations of gases
similar to those in which
life originated on it
while a second pioneers being aimed to curve past jupiter and fly by sachin
earth-based measurements show that the moon of saturn nearly the size of the
planet mercury
contains an atmosphere

of viking spacecraft is being readied
to land on mars in nineteen seventy six
tearing them apart to make it chemical laboratory to sample martian soil
for life forms
the discovery of just born bacteria on mine
or any other body of the solar system
would indicate that the whole
chain of evolutions
cosmic
chemical and biological
is at work
everywhere
in that case
the creation of life anywhere in the universe
would be more the rules
than the exception
in that case
they may be one of those

*** users user id
inserted into a store israeli the issue here is a list and really legitimate is
they've changed the eleven more
desirability of stars as a planetary systems and so i really think perhaps
uh...
the probability that those planetary systems might be comparable with our own
and that the stars have some kind of a conspiracy theory which the radiation is
suitable life but it's not
involved meeting the other criteria seems unreasonable
these uh... bits of information come from astronomy primarily
then we join with the biochemist
tell us about the probable evolution of life here on earth
regards elements that are necessary for the d_n_a_ molecules amino acids in
white
amino acids which has now been found in meteorites
we have now found interstellar molecules falling out of the space between stars
so gmail materials for a carbon-based life exists
we know that many of the building blocks of life in our own sources missus off of
our planet
if you put these kinds of probabilities together
begins to leave the sorts of conclusions that we started with his initial premise
apparently no one of africa's disagreed
and that is that life must exist universe and must exist dot abundantly
the most curiously escalates interview civilizations that there might be a
galaxy
isn't it
which means that they really want three hundred thousand stars
as the issue
evaluated
in such places
generated
admirers contain large
personal society of these groups are just a lot
but all the time i think
there's only one we have no hope of finding a probably thousands
making as many of the main
they probably already have a long history of this extreme experience of
finding new ones and bring them into the network
and all the man
for the first of all they don't want to talk
they would say all of that must be extremely but with the little so he
can't use the link below the limo radio telescopes
the middle of the nineteen seventy
a study of the feasibility
interstellar communication was made in california
by a number of radio signed a star as well as astronomers and others skull
projects like ross
they are out of that study was that
united states had the technical came ability of building a large pretty
alright
which would be able to scan the heavens
fairly great resolution and and thousands of unity operatives and of
many hundreds or possibly thousands of light years
and with the
part of the volatility picking up a signal
when they're
our presidents are going to be able to detect ourselves
he was going to run
and wounds or
packed with people
will be incredibly alien
in other biochemistry resembled about our special all teachers or not i'm not
close enough
uh... it will have an designers but it will be a deadly alar sick the elderly
situation to put different and i don't know what chains and length of the
battle at all
and coming there for a very likely notified by the canisters
and when i read the full of mushrooms very difficult
so i think first of all
they'll be too great phases of this eventual time which i think will come
ten years or a hundred years so i don't know
maybe longer
when some
satisfactory radio telescope work or something similar
acquire evidence of the
contract that message
out into space
so i think that would be kisi and of course extraordinarily important
very little of what that message size say they don't exist
and maybe some general geographic information how how far away it's coming
what kind of a software
and then i think
how boring and or a corresponding to a court
week after week
month after month
decade after a decade
an enormous valuable obviously interesting and meaningful pulse
and you'll be able to read them
slowly at this point
because it will not be coded but they'll be entitled
after say the people who designed the means the design of well if i'm very
carefully i think the maximum number of mathematical clues
the best way to single out the meeting will be made available
i think the most important thing that will still bring to us
if we can finally understand that

if it exists at all

tonight we have been bounded not only into our own countries into our own
small
regions on this planet but most assuredly within our solar system itself
if there are many tens of billions of other civilizations which
predictions indicate might be
then we would join and larger galactic
nineteen seventy six
we're going to be able to explore our minds
for perhaps not so humble
micro-organisms
before and after that
will be searching the planets
the galaxies
for clues to fill in the new patterns with discovery

missing you're looking for a return of another while walking like

upping the universe of circumstances
while you're in a rather shaadi imaginations financial matters for
thirty or forty years company convinced that it would not on their guidance so

not true
the difference between the spacecraft's

yes between war and peace

we're the ones who were moving

not with death rates with with cameras
not to conquer above
so if you do it
we are in fact they're giving ourselves far better
we ever have back here at home
