Um, because to the best of our knowledge, we, we, we don't know of life anywhere else. You know, I'm often asked, um, are there aliens among us? And I'll say that I am one. But >> or you're from the future. >> They don't believe me. >> Okay.
Um, so uh, but I, I, I think if anyone would know if there are aliens among us, it would be me. Um, and uh, we, we have 9,000 satellites up there and not once have we had to maneuver around an an alien spaceship. So, I'm like, I don't know.
It's bottom line is I think we need to assume that life and consciousness is extremely rare, and it might only be us. And if that's the case, then we need to do everything possible to to ensure that the the light of can light the light of consciousness is not extinguished because we're effectively, the way I view it, is the image in my mind is of a a tiny candle in a vast darkness, a tiny candle of consciousness that could easily go out.
Um, and that's why it's important to make life multilanetary uh, such that if there is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster on Earth, that consciousness continues.
