The Drake Equation (Some Mind Blowing Shit Right Here)
The Drake Equation was developed to estimate the number of extraterrestrial civilizations in our galaxy (The Milky Way). This equation is widely accepted by the scientific community as an accurate way to estimate the amount of civilizations in The Milky Way. At a conservative estimate, according to the Drake Equation, their are around 1000 extraterrestrial civilizations in our galaxy ALONE. Just think about this...1000. Humans=1. Keep in mind this is a CONSERVATIVE estimate and their could be as many as 5000.
Also another thing to think about, the Milky Way is 1 out of approximately 250 BILLION galaxies out their in space. I feel that when someone says humans are the only life form they are being extremely arrogant. If you want to learn more about Drake's Equation feel free to look it up, its pretty damn interesting.

i think i will look this up.
but i agree...people that say there is no other life out there, out of ALLLLLLLL the vast nothingness of space are pretty damn stupid

You should have posted links...
Just type it into google. Relatively easy and painless

the only thing that makes me not want to think about it is because what if the aliens dont have weed? you know how bad that would suck?
damn dude this will keep we entertained for a couple hours for sure
I wonder, are there any other worlds with a spark of life and intelligence burns? Is it possible that, as you look up at the same stars on a warm summer evening, or a snowy winter midnight and wonder if humanity is alone in the universe, at that same instant someone else on a distant world is looking up at the same sky and wondering the very same question?
Trippy shit to think about.

Those dam marshins better be growing some dank weed like we are tooo
Weed makes you Smarter :D
this reminds me of the times where you laydown and look up at the stars and just think, i love that, espeicaly when your blitzed out of your skull :D
wow are you high??? this is the clearest and well thought out explanation. props.
=O mind blown
i thought the solution to the drake equation was 10???
nope. its a minimum of 1000
you know what i think is just as trippy is that what if every sci fi show or movie weve ever seen is in someway real and happening on one of those many other planets. just think of the technology they have. space travel, artificial gravity....lightsabers.
We were just discussing this in my science class! It's even more awesome to think about when I'm stoned
"Without me, it's just aweso"
what if, because it takes so long for light to reach distant planets and galaxies that we are looking at planets that already have life, we just dont see them yet. like maybe scientists on a different planet are looking at earth, but are only just now seeing the dinosaurs. and one says to another, "hey theres intellegent life there, perhaps we should go investigate." and the other guys all, "fuck that man, those things look fuckin mean. lets hit this aswome space-bowl instead."
hahaha if i were them id hit that space bowl THEN go investigate the dinosaurs
