Can multi-species civilization be possible in the universe?

When we are thinking about the situation that the alien race will meet another alien race there are two possibilities. The first possibility is that those alien species are starting diplomatic relations and the second possibility is that they will go to war. The thing is that the technically advanced civilizations that can travel to another solar system should realize that the war between civilizations would be deadly or at least causes extreme damage.

The requirement for contact with aliens is interstellar travel. Without interstellar travel, contact is impossible on the physical level. But if the species is highly advanced it can create extremely powerful lasers that can cause damage even on an interstellar scale. The interstellar laser system can base on a mirror or a large group of mirror satellites. That is pointing their radiation to one large laser system.

The advanced civilizations must have some kind of technology that can use as a weapon. The lasers that are planned to use to push solar sails to Alpha Centauri can turn into weapons. And that is the thing that causes criticism against that project The interstellar lasers would be far more powerful than those lasers that are planned to use to send solar sail to Alpha Centauri.

Those systems are needed to protect civilizations against meteorites. And they can use laser or antimatter technology.

This is the reason why the interstellar- or Kardashev-scale 2+ civilizations would probably choose communication and diplomacy. Things like Death Stars and antimatter weapons are the things that might help to tolerate each other when the interstellar civilizations are meeting.

So the interstellar civilizations are probably not a threat to each other. Interstellar travel requires a certain type of behavior, and that means those aliens would remove aggressive behavior from their race. That thing can happen by using genetic engineering, where aggression and narcism are removed from their genomes.

But as we see aggressive behavior and things like willing to destroy the other species depends on the culture. The thing is that the interstellar civilizations must be mature enough that they finish their wars and start to work for the goal that gives them the ability to travel to the stars. The highly advanced technology makes those species hard to destroy.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments. Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape. We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures. The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time? Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger. The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers. "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions. And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object. Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
