You can stop a clock from ticking, but it’s a lot harder to figure out how to stop humanity’s relentless march toward self-annihilation.
The keepers of the metaphorical Doomsday Clock have now determined we are closer than ever to catastrophe, and they have moved the second hand forward by one tick.
It now sits 89 seconds away from midnight, aka ‘Doomsday’
And exploration of the idea of reversing the Fermi Paradox and exploring if we are alone, but it actually may reveal another paradox.

Amid the swirling vastness of galaxies, each a cosmic city of stars and planets, the silence raises a compelling question: could the very nature of galaxies themselves hold the key to why intelligent life remains unseen?

The data inscribed into the crystal is carefully annotated with universal elements like hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen, as well as the four DNA bases—adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine—that make up the genetic code. Additionally, the molecular structure of DNA and the arrangement of genes within chromosomes are depicted, offering clear instructions on how to interpret the genetic information stored within.
However, it is important to note that the 5D memory crystals require a highly specialized skill set and advanced equipment to inscribe and read the data stored within the crystals, so those looking to re-establish the human race after an extinction event may have to refer to more traditional means.
The crystal, made from fused quartz, is one of the most chemically and thermally resilient materials known on Earth, and can endure temperatures as high as 1000°C, resist direct impact forces up to 10 tons per square centimeter, and is unaffected by long-term exposure to cosmic radiation. The longevity and storage capacity of the 5D memory crystal earned it a Guinness World Record in 2014 for being the most durable data storage material ever created.
Part II of a collaboration with Isaac Arthur on the subject of uplifting, the concept of increasing an animal or alien species’ intelligence. Further, we explore the concept of Downshifting, the idea of making deliberately making something less intelligent.

We often speculate that the reason we can’t hear aliens civilizations is because our SETI efforts (the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) relies on radio and telescopes to weak to hear them. But how plausible is that? and what would it tell us about our own future?

The Zoo Hypothesis is a Fermi Paradox solution that assumes extraterrestrial civilizations can’t be detected by our SETI efforts because they keep our whole world in an Alien Zoo.
