Imagine the answer to the Fermi paradox being that the aliens found us and immediately quarantined our entire planetary system.

They didn’t destroy Earth to build a bypass, the bypass was built around us

Dumb nerds. There’s a fucking crosshair pointed at us and they’re more interested in us in a void. /s

It’s also right next to a giant chaos star apparently.

Only if you believe their leaders are playing real 4D chess
Otherwise, I’d say they’re more like a nurgle plague.

Not only that, it’s the biggest void we have ever discovered!

“We found a hole!”
“Holy shit! Is it like the previous one at all?”
“It’s exactly like the previous one, only BIGGER!”

We haven’t even gotten to the dark age of technology yet. This knowledge must be lost pretty soon. Or maybe discovering the Eye of Terror is referring to first contact of some sort.
Erasmus@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Sounds like this discovery places us IN the Eye of Terror.

You know how the military chests the area of a target for range practise?
argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Maybe that’s was the objective. Aliens find a little planet in the middle of a space desert, untouched by any race. It’s a nice experiment, they came here, dropped some DNA (either like that awful movie or by masturbating hard) and left. Now they’re just watching and laughing and laughing.

Some other said that the universe is in a giant black hole, this also explain the acelerated expansion into it. We’ll seeAnyway the Earth don’t exist anymore since a long time, until the spaguetification, not even when Andromeda crashed with th Milkyway, maybe still when we know that we are NPCs in an Galactic WoW computergame.

Can you get me the number of your dealer? You have some good stuff there…
Zerush@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
Nothing to do with it, currently there are a growing numbers of hypotheses about the Universe, since the James Webb Telescope had trashed most of the old astrononical models. I¡ve seen more than 5 changes of hipotheses to explain the differences between current observation and what before was taken as valid theory, fucking up the astpnomers and astro-physicists. These for sure had needed some colored pills with an whisky, putting years of work in the trashcan.

Then again, it may not be. Rain overnight as well, unless there is not. The news is all supposition lately. Hail may kill you today, but it may not.

Eh. It’s not like we’d be getting anywhere at sub-light speeds regardless and a working Alcubierre drive isn’t exactly right around the corner.
On the other hand, it might make it harder for anybody with working FTL to get to us, which is probably a good thing. If they saw how we’re conducting ourselves at the moment, orbital bombardment would be the best we could hope for.
Reliq@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
Somewhat ironically… actually using an Alcubierre drive has been theorized to…
…well, basically, when you ‘come out of warp speed’, turns out you’ve been accumulating, and energizing, a whole bunch of exotic particles and radiation along the threshold of your ‘warp bubble’…
… so when you uh, decelerate/stop fucking spacetime so hard… you spew out an immense amount of exotic particles and radiation.
arxiv.org/pdf/1202.5708
So you wouldn’t even have to nuke it from orbit.
You just have to come out of warp right next to your target planet, and that’d probably boil off a good portion of its atmosphere, and give everything biological on the side facing you lethal radiation poisoning.
