Richard Feynman: Why It’s Physically IMPOSSIBLE for Aliens to Ever Reach Earth

Richard Feynman: Why It’s Physically IMPOSSIBLE for Aliens to Ever Reach Earth There's one thing that's made me think a lot, for many years in a row. One thing that most people don't bother to notice, because our intuition—that very natural feeling of "understanding the world"—usually works quite well in everyday life. But the problem is this. When you take that intuition outside the scope of the dinner table, the road in front of your house, or the drive to work… and apply it to the scale of the universe, it collapses instantly. And I'm telling you honestly: it doesn't just collapse—it gets mercilessly crushed by the universe. Because when you really look at physics, when you examine how time works at high speeds, when you calculate the distances between stars, when you notice the strange limits of light, you start asking a very uncomfortable question: Why do we think our intuition can help us understand the universe? When you live on Earth—a tiny planet with distances measurable in minutes or hours—intuition works fine. #3iatlas #NASA #space #MichioKaku #spacenews #deepspace #sciencenews #spaceexploration #spacescience
