Dr. Michio Kaku: SCI FI or SCI FACT Lecture PART 4

ROBOTS and WORMHOLES:
In part 4 of his lecture, Dr. Michio Kaku (a frequent host on science shows for the Discovery Channel, PBS, and author of the best selling book "Physics of the Impossible") concludes his lecture with a talk about new scientific research that talks about the state of the art of robotics and dimensional travel.

SCI FI or SCI FACT is part of a major lecture series at ASU on science presented by Beyond, the Center for Fundamental Concepts in Science. A center at the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Beyond seeks to create new and exciting ideas that push the boundaries of research and to answer foundational questions in science, and explore their philosophical ramifications what might be called the big questions

....expanding at the speed of light containing the finest of our cultural archives. The noblest achievements of the human creative spirit like I love Lucy leave it to beaver and now joined by the immortal classics: beavis and butthead part two and dumb and dumber part two. And if there is a star within 50 lightyears of the earth they will pick up our cultural transmissions and theyll be convinced there is no intelligent life on the Earth.

To be honest, I think that Dr. Kaku May be wrong on the aliens not visiting Earth. For Example, any galactic civilization that may be present in our galaxy. Would know that there is intelligent life on Earth; Level of intelligence to be determined. But any civilization like that would, no doubt have some sort of primitive species protection program, like in Star Trek, the prime directive to be exact. Until we the human race have sorted out all our differences and realize we aren't alone,

@photoxloan That would be something :p

aliens wouldn't give us there technology because we'd probably use their weaponry in war and end up destroying ourselves, were probably not mature and civilized enough to be trusted with such technology wait to about the 24th century then they'll arrive. the UFO's could be just to give clues there here but not proof. UFO's come so there existence wont be a complete shock, just a possible theory.

for me, I think MK is an alien sent by their leaders to come to this planet to educate us.

@tksmkwd2 You are wrong. We know more about the universe than ever before and people are more banal than ever before.

@xzKyouzx

personally, i disagree with you, i think if and when we do know everything about our universe or theoretically about the multiverse, then i think we would find much more wonder and interest in it

@Yugiohtrader5 UNPOSSIBLE :P Nah just kidding :D What's the saying in physics? "Anything not denied by the laws of physics is mandatory"? They are finding out daily that more and more things considered fantastically impossible are permitted by the laws of physics. So.......?
