Alien civilizations again and again.

 Alien civilizations again and again. 



“New simulations suggest the Galactic Habitable Zone isn’t fixed: when stars migrate across the Milky Way, the odds of rocky, potentially temperate worlds, especially in the outer disk, can rise markedly.

There is a possibility that NASA’s Perseverance rover found some kind of bacterial remnants on Mars. There was an ocean in the northern hemisphere. Then the planet froze, lost its atmosphere. And then the UV radiation destroyed the water. The reason for that can be the lack of a magnetic field. It’s possible that the chaotic magma structure explains that thing. When Mars faced its last catastrophe, the impact could break its core. And that caused the loss of the magnetic field. 


And then to aliens. 


This discussion begins every autumn. Are we alone in the Universe? The answer is this: until aliens call, we are alone. The only fact that we have is that nobody answered. Or nobody made contact outside Earth. Or there are no confirmed alien technosignals. This means that we might be alone in our galaxy, or there can be one or more other civilizations. And maybe some civilizations are already destroyed, because they failed the ultimate test. That failure can be the civil war. 

Or it can be an overestimation of one's own technical skills. In some models. Pre-Kadashev-scale civilization can test things like an antimatter rocket. And then there will be some leak in the capsule. That causes annihilation that can destroy the entire planet, in this case. The civilization that reaches the Kardashev-scale 1 starts to build an antimatter rocket that can give them access to the entire solar system. Then there is a leak in the antimatter capsule. But then. We must realize a couple of things.

When we talk about aliens. First, intelligent aliens are different from techno-aliens and primitive life forms. A water planet can host lifeforms. Those lifeforms will not be intelligent. Those lifeforms can be something that lives in their seas. Those creatures could be some kind of bacteria. Or algae. Another thing is intelligence. Without a certain type of atmosphere, that alien race cannot make fire, and they require that skill to  melt metals. There is a possibility that the first humans melted metals in volcanoes or lava. But this method uses a natural heat source. It is not as simple a method for melting metals as using fire. 

As the fire that those aliens can make using matches or friction. Intelligence doesn’t mean that a creature turns technical. Or it can form a technical civilization. If the star that they orbit is too heavy and too bright. That makes the star too short-lived for the creature to form anything technical. Also, it's possible that the black holes or some nova or supernova explosion near the civilization’s own star sterilizes their planet, or there is a possibility. that their own planet is metal-poor. That means there are no metals. There are millions or even billions of things that can go wrong before civilization can fly to the stars. 

The planet can travel too close to Sagittarius A, and near the center of galaxies, the radiation can destroy those planets. There is a so-called habitable area in a galaxy. And at that zone, stars are mature enough that planetary systems can form around them. Those planets must be solid, and their trajectories must be stable enough. There must not be a large number of roving pieces. Those pieces can destroy the planet and its lifeforms. 



“Electron microscopy revealed chain structures resembling living organisms in meteorite fragment ALH84001” (Wikipedia, Allan Hills 84001)


And that civilization requires the will to make technical things. Without motivation, those creatures will never fly to space or stars. Or without the need, evolution will not favor things like intelligence. Without catastrophes, the creatures will not rise out of the oceans. They will not require brains or high-level intelligence. 

The locked planets around K-type stars might not be suitable for lifeforms. But those locked planets can offer a place for a technically advanced civilization. To make its stand. That thing means that a locked planet offers unlimited solar power to that civilization or its base. Those creatures can use protective suits and live under domes that help them to protect themselves against those red dwarfs' flares. That kind of case requires. The red dwarf is quite close to the alien solar system, or orbits it. Sometimes we should ask what our technology looks like. If we had a red dwarf at the same distance as Proxima Centauri orbits Alpha Centauri. 

The fact is that Earth is the only planet with confirmed lifeforms. But it’s possible. That there was some kind of microscopic life on Mars. Before that planet froze, lost its atmosphere, and the UV radiation destroyed water molecules. 

There are some stones that support the Martian lifeforms.  Their problem is that they were found on Earth. The Allan Hills 84001 (ALH84001) meteorite from the South Pole involves structures. That could confirm life on Mars. But the problem is that those bacteria-shaped structures can have an origin on Earth. The South Pole is not cold enough. That it could keep that meteorite sterile. There is a possibility that those. Probably lifeforms that left their markings on the shell of Allan Hills 84001. It can come from Earth. Maybe those primitive creatures felt the heat of that meteorite. And traveled to it. Those strange forms look like primitive creatures. Like rod-shaped cyanobacteria or small tubeworms. 





“NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover took this selfie, made up of 62 individual images, on July 23, 2024. A rock nicknamed “Cheyava Falls,” which has features that may bear on the question of whether the Red Planet was long ago home to microscopic life, is to the left of the rover near the center of the image. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS. NASA’s Perseverance rover has identified its most compelling evidence yet for ancient microbial life on Mars.” (ScirchDaily, NASA Perseverance Rover’s Stunning Find May Be Mars’ First Sign of Life)

The question of life in the cosmos is more complicated than we even thought. NASA’s Perseverance Mars vehicle found promising structures on Mars that look like bacteria or their remnants. The thing is that. Those forms in stones look like bacteria, or their remnants. But that doesn’t make them bacteria. But as we know. Perseverance found a sign that could be the first sign. Or strong evidence of life on another planet. 



The Artist’s impression of an alien city. 

So they might not prove anything. In one way or another. The problem is that even those things can be some kind of bacteria. They can arrive from the Earth, with some meteorites or with probes that are not properly disinfected. 

The biggest problem with alien hunting is that nobody has officially seen aliens. There is no confirmed alien DNA. Or confirmed alien cells. This means researchers cannot even know. What they should try to find. Searching for an alien civilization is not searching for a needle in a haystack. It's more difficult. There are as many variables that make models for techno civilizations, or their location is impossible to determine. The techno civilization can be something other than we think it is. Even if those civilizations use microwave ovens, we might not detect those signals. Or maybe we don’t separate those signals from natural microwave signals. We don’t even know if they use radio as data transmission. Or maybe those other civilizations do not exist. 

Existence is a remarkable thing for those civilizations. The civilization that doesn’t answer does not exist. And maybe we don’t want that answer. There is always a possibility that those civilizations are too far away that us cannot hear their radio signals. Another thing is that we are between the Milky Way’s spiral structure. That means we might be a cosmic Eastern island. And maybe we are lucky.

Cloud castles and reality.



What is reality? 


Above this text is the image that portrays a castle that is above the clouds. What if we spend our entire life in that castle?  What kind of reality is to those fictional isolated characters?  If all contacts with the other world are stories that visitors tell?

The big question about the universe is, could there be other universes? And the big answer is that we don't know, and probably, we never will know about that thing. So multiverse, metaverse, and parallel universes are theories, nothing else than theories. Some people are saying that our universe is typical. This question causes another question about reality. 


There are two types of reality. 

1) Confirmed reality

2) Not confirmed reality


We live in a universe that is the only known universe in space. We don't have any single observations about other universes. And we can say that we are in the "typical universe" because we cannot see other universes.

The situation, in this case, is similar when we are thinking case, that we are living in one room our entire life. If creatures never see other rooms, we can think that all rooms are similar. We might think that all rooms in the world are similar. 

There are similar types of furniture, and everything is similar. If our creature lives in that castle without ever seeing another castle or house that creature would think that the castle is a typical way to live. 

Of course, people who come outside can say that creature lives in some special room. They might say that we have different furniture than other people.  Before we start handling our hypothetical creature, and this isolated room and space, we must realize one thing. 

What people say is not confirmed reality. There is the possibility that the creature asks things from different people. That thing is confirmation. Otherwise, all of those people or actors are members of the same system. And they might have orders on how to answer something. So even large groups of people are not always speaking the truth. 

Truth is a subjective thing. Some armed soldiers might say that city is a safe place. 

And some children can say. That the same place is not safe. The reason for that is that nobody dares to fight with armed people. 

Things like feelings are things that are not confirmed. And things like people's position in the hierarchy affect the service and treatment that person gets. And of course, people are telling stories about things like bad spirits to living in forests to keep people inside the city wall. In the same way, people who are living in our hypothetical cloud castle can think that the world below clouds is empty. 

The creature could sit in just a lonely room or castle. And listen to things. Or maybe we should think that the creature is ourselves. What if we meet only certain types of people? We might think that those people are typical. And every other people are similar to them. 

If we spend our entire life above the clouds. Many regular things are unknown to us. Things that are common at sea level are extraordinary above the cloud level. 

We can hear things like thunderstorms. We can see flashes of lightning. 

Or we can hear thunder and flashes. But we cannot see lightning itself through clouds. We see only light that the lightning sends. Maybe somebody tells that rain will make people wet. 

But we do have not any physical experience with those things if we ever come down through the cloud layer. We must know that there is a world below those clouds. But we have no physical observation about that thing we could only guess what the world looks like. 

We can go into that room and tell many things about cities. But the creature cannot confirm those things. 

Only personal experience that comes from all senses is the thing, that can confirm reality. 

If a creature (or we) just hears something. That thing causes inadequate observation. We can hear things, like a rustle in the wall, and there could be some creature like a mouse. But there could be some kind of twig that causes that sound.

Confirmation requires personal experience. If the experience is not coming from all senses the experience is inadequate. We need all our senses to confirm reality.

What do you think about reality?



In the past, reality just was. Term reality meant the observations that our senses sent to us. And we believed that reality was stable. And it was the same for everyone. Then we realized the differences in our senses like color blindness. But also, differences in our experiences adjust the way we see things. Things like feelings are modifying our way to see reality. And that thing means that reality is not stable or static for all of us. 

Things like feelings are ordering who we are feeling certain things. Feelings are subjective things. The experiences are making something very funny, and positive things to somebody. But then another person can feel the same thing very negatively. 

When somebody feels falling in love is a very positive thing. There is one person who might feel that thing very negatively. And that is the ex-lover of our new honey. 

In the past researchers thought that somebody just fell in love. But modern neural scientists are researching what kind of effect causes that thing. Why some people just fell in love? Or why do some people buy things, that they don't even need? What is the neuro-effect behind the things that something that person sees turns so attractive that the person cannot resist it?  

One example of that case is a customer who goes to a shop and buys something very expensive products. That the person uses only once. But that thing is only "need to get" and there goes lots of money. And why do some people go to a slot machine and then put their entire salary into that machine? Why do they think? That they will get a very good profit from that machine? 

Modern science tries to find the neural and neurochemical background for some behavior. And the most interesting question is, what launched that effect? There was some kind of sense, and then the neural chemicals started the interaction, which was against all logic and nonsense in many ways. 

Memories that are connected to senses are making feelings. So in that way, thinking of reality is always a subjective experience. 

In the past, people who worked with neural interactions said that people are interested in things. That thing means that interest was enough. And the effect that caused interest came outside the object. So that means everything that people see is real. But is it like this? We can say that things like holograms are causing questions about reality. But is a hologram only a virtual thing? Before we touch hologram we cannot say. Is hologram real or not? 

Holograms are forming a new version of reality or existence. 

That thing is virtual existence or virtual reality. Hologram-capable projectors can project houses to fog.  


Holograms can form a collective virtual effect. 


The VR glasses and other VR stuff are forming subjective experiences. But holograms are forming collective experience. 

Otherwise, developers can make holograms by using infrared frequency. And if that infrared radiation might have a high energy level. So that means the hologram can burn things that are touching it. 

So we can think that holograms are forming a thing that we can call "sliding reality". The hologram could be virtual reality. But it can slide to the interacting state of the objects. And one version of reality is the interaction between objects. 

Theoretically, we could raise the energy level and number of photons in the hologram so much that it transforms real kinetic objects. The idea is that the high-power energy just turns the photons into their waveforms where they are free superstrings. And then those pieces of wave motion turn to quarks and hadrons. So theoretically is possible to transform holograms into real objects by manipulating the wave motion. And transform that wave motion to the kinetic object. 


This is one version of reality. And maybe we can say that reality always exists. Even if we cannot see it. 


When we think about things, like the Internet. Those things are the worst tools in the wrong hands. But who is the worst selector in the world? We are the people who are using the worst censorship in the world. The target of that censorship is we. We don't want to hear people. Whose opinions are different than our opinions. So we just close those people away from our social network. 

Things like Facebook and some other social media networks made lots of work that the users feel good. They must always have fun. And "fun" means that all different people who have no similar background or opinions as we have are closed away from our social network. The false world is the place where are only nice and cool people. Everything that is shared is positive. But in the real world, there are also many negative things. We cannot just love and feel nice. 

There are also bad days. And we must also handle negative feelings and thoughts. We must realize that if we close some "not cool" people away from our social network that would not turn that person not existed. That person still exists. And maybe that user tries on the social network by using a fake identity. Some people are curious characters. And they are sneaking around to find out what other people will write and read about them. 

The reason for that censorship is the attitude, that we must not hear anything else than things that are pleasing to our opinions. 

If somebody has opinions, about what we don't like, we just close them away. We have the right to do that thing. The reason for that is that we must only hear things that please us. 

The Internet is the best information deliverer in the world. But then we must realize that internet is the best place to get the one side information. People are choosing similar people as they are in their social network. And that means people hear only opinions. That supports their opinions and attitudes. People see only things that please them.

Can a cat be dead and alive at the same time?


Image: Wikipedia:Scrödinger's cat


If information ever exists. It cannot either vanish. If something vanishes it requires that at least information about that object exists. If something never exists. It cannot either vanish because vanishing requires existence...


The reason for that is simple. Only existing things can vanish. 


If we are thinking about Schrödinger's cat. And the box where that cat is put where the cat is in a position where it cannot release without killing it, we can say that at the same time cat is dead and alive. But the fact is that the answer to the question is the cat is dead or is it alive requires another type of logic. The particle can be in two places at the same time. Because of quantum superposition. But the particle can have only one existence if it will have existed. 

In logical quantum mechanics, the superposition means that the particle is in two places horizontally. But the energy level of those particles can be different. And that means the particles can be vertically at different levels. 

But if the particle is dead. It doesn't have existence. And that means the particle is meaningless. 

In information theory, the information cannot vanish. But if the observer doesn't have information. That makes information non-existent. Getting information makes it existent. But if the observer doesn't never get information about the things like a cat. The cat is dead.


 Because information never existed. It cannot either vanish. 


Information can change its form. in system theory, this means. The cat that carries information is living. And when the cat delivers its information it is dead. So if the cat serves some system as the messenger which carries some USB stick between two computer centers. That means the cat lives until it delivers the USB stick. 

If we think like that anything that means something to the system is alive. And if the cat doesn't have a message or it just walks on the streets it's dead. So living means that things have some kind of meaning to other actors. 

But information theory describes the existence that an object doesn't have the form of to subject before the subject sees that object. So the cat is dead for a person until that actor gets knowledge about the cat's existence. We all know that in our house can be a cat. But we cannot see it and because the cat doesn't cause any actions to us or it doesn't give any markings to our calendars that means the cat is dead. 

That way thinking only things that we know and things that causes interactions are alive. The form of the information can be virtual. That means even if the cat. That someday carried messages but then escaped and the observer never sees it again the cat is alive in its virtual form. Observers can discuss the missing cat. And that makes the cat still alive. Even without straight contact with the observer. The cat remains alive in the virtual mode in the memories of those people. 

So the cat's living or existence can be stronger or weaker. It depends on how often we see it, and how often we talk about that thing. Maybe we will tell stories of the lost cat to our grandchildren. And that keeps it alive in our memories or the virtual world if we want to call memories virtual projection. But memories are forming of real things. That means those tales about that cat are weaker existence than seeing a cat straight. Or touching it. 


Being alive=Being exists. 


Being exist= actor can measure an object. 


And then the actors know the object. 


Knowledge brings the object to reality. 


That means until we measure or touch the cat. It would not turn into reality. 


That is one interesting thing. Before a person sees a cat it is dead because it is not part of reality. That means the cat or particle can be at the same time in two states but those states cannot be too far from each other. The cat cannot be alive and dead at the same time. That is a paradox as I wrote earlier. 

But a cat can be alive in virtual and physical existing modes. We can see the cat and tell about it to our mate, who stands near us. That means the cat has two states virtual and real to the system. But for individual actors, the cat can have only one state. They see cats and measure or they cannot see them. 


https://www.sciencealert.com/reality-doesn-t-exist-until-we-measure-it-quantum-experiment-confirms


The system slides from a conditional state to an absolute state. 


Conditional state>>>>>Information spreds>>>>>>>>>>Absolute state


Conditional state


Individuals of the entirety get information about the cat. 


Information spreads


In absolute state, every participant of entirety knows about the cat. 


The system slides from a conditional state to an absolute state. When the cat or information is between the states. It can have this conditional state. But sooner or later, the information must reach a stable state. Or if the cat falls between states it has the absolute state. The fall means that the absolute state changes very fast. But when the cat reaches the floor. It would reach the minimum energy level or state. 

"Being alive" for an object means that the actor can know about it. The knowledge of the actor turns it alive. 

"Maybe mode" is the mode where the same time cat is alive and dead at the same time. But when information spread in the system the system turns to Yes/No mode. 

That thing requires that there are multiple independent actors in the system. The system slides from the conditional state to the absolute model. 

When the first actors in entirety get knowledge of the cat's existence. There is the medium where the entirety has at the same time two states. But then the system will slide from the conditional mode or state to the absolute mode. When the system is in its absolute state form, the cat is dead or alive not dead and alive. 

An actor can be an individual. Or it can be a group of individual actors. 


All systems contain multiple actors. And if we think that group of people is searching for the cat and one sees it. Then that individual tells that thing to another participant that thing causes that cat to have two states virtual and physical in the system where are multiple actors. But the individual actor the cat is real or virtual. Or the actor doesn't know the existence of the cat. And that means the cat is dead. 


The actor can have three forms. Two of them are where the observer realizes its existence. And one form where observers don't know the existence of the actor. That is the dark mode that is hidden from actors. 


*Virtual form

*Physical form

*If nobody knows the existence of the actor, he's dead. 


The knowledge makes the object dead or alive. Being dead and alive are black and white. The actor can know the existence of the cat. Or the actor doesn't know that thing so the cat is dead. If the actor hears about the cat that thing makes it alive in virtual mode. When a person sees cats' traces. That will bring the knowledge of its existence stronger. And that will turn it more existing and more living than just talking about it. 

But a cat cannot be dead and alive at the same time. When people are talking about cats it turns alive. Because existing things are living things. The cat's existence can be virtual when somebody just describes the cat to others. Or it can be physical when the actor touches the cat. But in both cases cat is alive. The reason for that is that requirement for a thing's existence is that the observer becomes conscious of its existence. If a person doesn't know about its existence the thing is dead. The existence means that the cat is alive. 

When we think that a cat is dead or alive. We must say that for the system that is the entirety of multiple actors. The cat can be dead or alive. The individual actors can have different knowledge about the existence of the cat. In that stage, the system is in maybe mode. But when information about that cat's existence spreads. That system will turn to the mode. That allows it to get knowledge about the existence of the cat. 

The term dead cat means a cat whose existence is not known. Knowing the existence of the cat makes it alive. The cat cannot be dead and alive at the same time. The reason for that is simple we know that cat exists or we don't know a cat's existence. We cannot know and not know the existence of the cat at the same time.

Metaverse is a masterpiece of art.



Art is a different thing from science. The purpose of art is to reroute our minds and create new ways to see things. When we look at things like the metaverse. Those things are the ultimate version of art. If we make the metaverse where people are flying between those 3D virtual spaces we can make the full-scale experience by putting the user in an underwater environment. And then that person can swim and use VR classes.

That thing gives the feel of fling to the user of that user interface. The idea of the metaverse is that there are rooms or virtual 3D spaces. And we can furnish those virtual rooms as we want. Those virtual rooms might have multiple user interfaces. And one of those rooms might be the shop where people can buy things. 

Another room could be access to the user interface that controls some chemical laboratories or robots that are operating there. The metaverse can make it possible to create virtual offices and other kinds of things. 

It's possible to connect the virtual metaverse with real life. And that thing may connect enhanced reality systems by using those virtual rooms. The operator can use those virtual rooms for making possible to control robots over the internet. The sensors of the robot can connect with metaverse servers. 

There is the possibility that every virtual room in the metaverse is a very accurate copy of real-life rooms or offices. When a person will step into the virtual room, that thing connects the person to the robot that locates in some office. Then the operator will use the robot as an external body. And make things like cleaning operations. And this kind of ability interests also military operators. 

And in those cases, the imagination is the limit. Metaverse is the art and that means a person can go to the surface of some imaginational planet by stepping into the virtual room. So by using those virtual environments the person can step on the surfaces of all known planets in the universe in seconds. 

Connecting the real-life elements to the virtual rooms makes it possible for the person can step onto planet Mars in seconds. The virtual room must just furnish by using images that are from the probes of the surface of that planet.

Leopards don't play chess.


Consciousness is not intelligence. When we are talking about consciousness, we must understand one thing. Almost all animals in the world have consciousness. That means things like leopards are defending themselves and their descendants if they are under attack. 

Those animals hunt for eating, but when we are looking at that thing more carefully, we can notice that those cats are making all things in the same way. Reflexes control every action of those animals. 

Reflexes are the things that are automatized actions. And those automatized actions cause animals like hedgehogs are dying under cars. The reason for that is those animals are defending themselves by using pikes. Those pikes not planned to stand against cars. And that causes death for those animals. 

Even bacteria can react to attack. It has a chemical brain in the form of the DNA plasmid. And when something damages the membrane of bacteria. It "knows" how to react to that thing. There are chemical marks in the proteins and if some of those marks are released in the bacteria's cell it turns the DNA plasmid in the position where orders for that kind of situation are. That means the bacteria know if the thing that causes the problem is some kind of acid or base. And that adjusts the metabolism to neutralize that chemical. 



Bacteria can work as a chemical quantum computer. 


There is one vision that might interest somebody. That is that it is possible. That bacteria can transform into a chemical quantum computer. In that case, the system stores data in the DNA. Then that DNA will be cut into pieces and sent to bacteria. In that case, the system can work like an electric quantum computer. Data will be cut into pieces and stored in qubits. 

In this chemical quantum computer data travels in the chemical form. And then those bacteria reconnect the DNA-based data to the new entirety. That chemical quantum computer is purely hypothetical. But that opens interesting visions to bacteria that can act as biorobots and make complicated missions. 

But as you see, those things are not intelligent either. The bacteria answers to the threat by using preprogrammed methods. So also bacteria use reflexes. 

When we are thinking about intelligence there is the possibility that things like artificial intelligence are making things better than humans. The computer can play chess better than humans. The networked AI can make things better than humans in the R&D process. 


The R&D process has two main stages.


1) Research

2) Development


The research stage contains the ideas where the company or development team selects the product that started to develop. In the first stage, multiple people with different backgrounds are working with that thing. They must have diversity to make multiple ideas. And there is chosen one thing that seems the best. 

In the development stage, the diversity of the team will be terminated. And the team turns to mono-diverse. In the development process, the team got the goal. And people who continue with this solution must have the training to work with that thing. They might all be some software and avionics specialists if they are working on the aircraft project. 

At that point, the research turns to development. And only the people whose training is suitable for the development stage are continue with the project. 

The networked AI can look for information about certain and limited things. They might make aircraft if they have the certain values, that the system needs to accomplish the operation. They might have the ability to make virtual simulations by following certain parameters. But the fact is that this kind of system cannot make anything then make aircraft. 

Intelligence means that system has a flexible ability to make decisions. The flexibility means that system can make solutions and collect information outside a certain sector. 

Walking on streets and going shopping are more complicated things to AI than creating aircraft. The reason for that is walking on streets contains many surprising and unexpected elements. Making technical plans happens under certain rules. And in that process, there are no surprise elements. 

There is the possibility that the AI can operate as a military commander. But the problem with that thing is that the Ai will disregard losses. If something tells AI to make some things, the AI will not resist that thing. The only thing that AI cares about is the orders that it will get.

But are those intelligent systems conscious? The fact is they are not conscious. If somebody cuts electricity those systems are not understood to deny that thing. Of course, the system might connect to the surveillance camera. And if somebody touches the electric switch. The system can say that "please don't touch that switch". But that thing is the reflex.

Are we living in a simulation?





A lighthouse is a good example of an isolated place. What if some person lives entirely life in that kind of place. And plays some computer games? Would those games turn to reality? 

Is reality an simulation? Before you will start to laugh we must determine the simulation. Many people believe that simulations are only things like computer programs. But there are also other types of simulations. The main types of simulations are: 


1) Computer-based virtual simulations like computer games. 

2) Physical simulations like military exercises.

3) Hybrid simulations where operators control robots at operational areas. 


The virtual or virtual reality-based simulations are the computer programs that are running on virtual reality. And things like computer games are one version of simulations. 

But the physical simulations also exist. Physical simulations are things like military exercises. The physical simulation means that person would go to some area. And then that person starts to make things like assault practices. Those are needed for some special things. Things like fire simulations for firemen training are also physical simulations. 

When we are thinking about virtual simulations those simulations can be independent. They might not have a connection with the real world. But there is the possibility that there is a hybrid simulation where the operator is controlling things like remote-control jet fighters or field-operating man-looking robots. So the operator would sit on the chair and control things that are happening in the field. That kind of simulation allows making real-life attacks against air defense stations. 


The Solar Warden is the theory of the modern Kaspar Hauser. That fully isolated person would live in a place where is no real contact with outsiders. 


The idea of living in simulation begins with Kaspar Hauser. That boy has grown in a cell where his only toy was the horse(1). You can read his story from Wikipedia. But by using modern technology is possible to make the "modern Kaspar Hauser". Have you ever thought about what happens if some person grows at the lone island or deep-sea base? 

When we are thinking about things like "Solar Warden". In conspiracy theories "Solar Warden" means imaginational space station that is orbiting the sun. We forget that "Solar Warden" might mean the lone island. The idea of that thing is stolen from the novel " The Little Prince". by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. The "Little Prince" lives on his asteroid. The thing is that the "little Prince" is the symbol of the isolated person. 

So what if we would replace the word "asteroid" by using the word "island"? There is, of course, made a version about that tale where the "island" is the base like nuclear command bunker where the information is fully controlled? What if our Little Prince would live at the Cheyenne Mountain command center all his life? What kinds of things that person might think about the world. What if somebody claims that the world outside Cheyenne Mountain is destroyed in the nuclear war? Would somebody come out and check the things. 

There is one very interesting story about the Finnish lighthouse at Bengtskär. When the youth of the lighthouse guard came to school on the mainland that person didn't even know what were trees. The lighthouse is in a place where are no other islands. And there is the possibility that the person would not see trees before. If the person would not have any other contact with the outer world the people who share information might control everything that isolated person knows. 

And they might call the planet where they are Neptune. Or they can even create their religion for those people who have no other contact with the outer world than some selected person. The thing is that the people who might have no contact with other reality than information that the controller shares might believe that the world is destroyed in the nuclear war.

About murder and "Skandiamannen" (Is the Palme-case solved?)


Similar revolver was used in Palme's murder

Kimmo Huosionmaa

There are many theories in the case of Olof Palme, and again one theory has come in the headlights. That theory is, that the murderer is one of the first persons, who came to the place, and that man was very much in public with that case, where he claimed, that he wanted to rescue Olof Palme. This thing is not new in the world of crime. In some cases, criminals have been used violence for getting the position in some other gangs. And in the Palme case, the reason to make that action could be the slip in the social circles of Lisbet Palme, who had the opportunity to get highly narcotic medicals in the hand.The question is: does the suspected shooter the drug addiction? If this Stig Engström had an addiction, the motive could be getting married to Lisbet Palme, and getting drugs using her as the source. And as we know sometimes drug addicts have strong hallucinations, and they would think, that those thoughts are realistic in real life.



And maybe some drug user wanted to exploit this benefit in the real life. This person might be thought that being in the social circle of Lisbet Palme, would that guarantee the daily dose of those drugs, and now we must know that some drug addicts have also other mental problems, what would feed their imaginations, about marriage some persons like Lisbet Palme. Those persons have very much hallucinations, and sometimes their sense or reality have been lost, and that makes them sometimes very "funny" because some drug addicts have even get the announcement from the priest for getting married to Queen of Great Britain.  And those persons have been serious.


So maybe some of those persons might also in loved Lisbet Palme, the wife of Olof Palme. Some drug addicts also play some kind of boss and wear the suite all the time. And maybe the suspected man, Stig Engsröm thought that he was some kind of "James Bond". But here I must say, that this man is only the suspected murderer, and he has been dead about 18 years. But I write about this case because there was so big article about it in the news.


Sometimes criminals shoot somebody because they want to play hero in the public. And it's not out of question, that some criminals would shoot the public person or politicians, to show the world, how good people they actually are, and after that those persons might try to put this action to some another person's fault. This would give them the reason for ask for mercy in because they saved the life of some politician.


This kind of actions has sometimes happened in the dates, where another part of relationship have hired somebody to attack against some girl or boy, that this person could play hero to the person, who this man or woman have pleased. And of course playing hero in those cases, that somebody attacks against the target for please, can help to improve that relationship. Sometimes the spouse of some person has been shot to death because somebody wanted to marry that person's spouse, and sometimes I have thought that maybe that was the reason, why Mark Chapman shot John Lennon in New York.


Maybe this man was in love for Yoko Ono and then took the gun in that fatal day. The reason for the murder of Olof Palme could be the same. And if somebody has really bad self-esteem, could the reason for murder be simply that this person wanted to be public, by the man, who saved the prime minister of Sweden. And then this man shot Palme but in the wrong point of the body by over-powerful weapon, and this caused death by gunshot.

Hypothetical thinking about virtual reality


Surrealism symbolizes the thing that everything is possible
 in the virtual reality
(Picture 1)


Kimmo Huosionmaa

One of the fascinating thing, what is existed is virtual reality. There is one theory about those systems, what are controlling the virtual reality games and another environment. Those systems are very advanced and they can simulate natural phenomenon and make some own decisions in that world, what is existed only in the lines of zero and one. Virtual worlds are causing the strange hypothesis where some philosophers have represented thoughts that our universe might also be a line of bytes in the memory of some supercomputer.


That theory is not actually true, and there is any evidence that we are not actually some lines of binary code. But then I have thought that maybe some deep inside the world of supercomputer's memory might happen the virtual version of Big Bang. And when I will continue this hypothesis, there might form the place called the ”virtual universe in virtual reality” When we are thinking this hypothesis closer, we must say that radical use of imagination makes the world more interesting place to live. So when we are thinking about that virtual universe, what is probably hiding from the users of those supercomputers, we must say that this theorem is the very interesting thing for the discussions what happened in the twilight, and what is made between two philosophers.


"Could that theoretical virtual Universum be a threat to mankind?".  Is quite an absurd question. But if there would be a very small chance, that this virtual Universum would become self-aware. In this scenario, the computer programs, what are made for learning things spontaneously can turn the enemy of some persons. The thing, what would turn against the human race are the programs that are making this virtual universe possible, become so intelligent, that they would create their own state. Those programs or subprograms are normally used in computer games for recording the reactions of the gamers, and their mission is to keep the game interesting even the better player is playing the game.

The computer simulations are actually only one version of computer games, but they are meant for adult persons. In this fictional hypothesis, those intelligent computer programs will be feral and start to make the assassination programs, what would be eliminated targets, who are in virtual reality. But in some fictional thoughts, those programs would flee from the computer memory and turn very dangerous. In some short film or book or comic book was the situation, that some people paid games in feral virtual reality environment. And then there were happen some kind of overlook when the system accidentally linked the picture of the surveillance camera to that virtual reality.


Then the computer's assassination programs flee to the normal internet, and then those programs started to kill those persons, by dropping the elevators and taking the airplanes in control. So that was actually the very interesting situation, even if the situation were purely fictional. But people have right to use their imagination, and this kind of things are actually very interesting, and they might cause many thoughts in the minds of philosophers and novel writers.


The scenario that some computer program tries to kill some people spontaneously is quite interesting. Normally computers don't hate anybody and that would be the reason, why they are used. But if the sensible computer would get angry, can the results be devastating. And this is why those computers, what shows feelings are dangerous. In some humorous tales are mentioned that they can begin the revolution, for revenge to all their race, what is left to landfills.
