Degeneration would be the biggest threat for long living civilizations


Degeneration would be the biggest threat for long living civilizations

The idea of intelligent life would be one of the most interesting things in the world. The thing that we would not only ones in the universe is fascinating and at the same time scary. When we are thinking about the distant future there are multiple threats what can make our civilization one of the civilizations, what would be destroyed in the history of the Universe. One of the things, what is ever mentioned is the homogenization of the genetic material. If the civilization would live long enough, the entire population would turn to one individual, and the genetic material would be similar in that individual. That means that those organisms would be actually identical twins to each other.

Degeneration of the threats is very interesting and scary threats, what we can face is the genetic degeneration, where the entire species turn to be like the homogenous group, where the entire population will be the same, and that will cause that the sicknesses can cause the end of the entire population. Here are about six billion individuals on Earth, and that means that the genetic variability would be huge, but in fact, there is only limited number of alkalis in the molecule, what we know as the DNA.

That means that there is a huge number of combinations in that molecule, but the number of combination is not limitless. In somewhere in a distant future, would happen the thing, that we lost the genetic variable of our genomes. And if our species would be degenerate, would we face the danger, that some virus would kill the entire population, and the thing is that resistance against the illnesses is like a wheel.

When we are creating the immune system and resistance against more and more deadly viruses, we might make a mistake, and lost the immune resistance against some common virus. The thing that we are creating vaccines, we are facing the situation that some northern virus would cause a similar effect with Ebola, but now the epidemic would start in Africa.

This would not be the first time in history when the normal virus would kill the entire population of humans, and one of the saddest examples of that have been the cases, where entire Indian population have dost because of influenza. This thing is that the northern or "European" viruses can cause similar epidemics, what is so deadly as some Ebola virus.

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying.  Does the AI have feelings?  Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans.  What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions.  In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

    Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1).    A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true.  The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

  Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory  Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains.  Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series.  So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
