thank. you.

credit rating. downgraded. to junk. with billions of galaxies. in the universe.

who says we are already playing host to visitors from our neighborhood. mr finkelstein thank you very much for being with us today you have promised that in twenty years time you will have discovered life on other planets are we actually talking about aliens or are merely some bacteria we're talking lifeforms of course from one particular form such life is a separate question of where there is life and intelligence and civilization are a possibility but discovery of life is of primary importance in what form. of the sun what i'm going to tell you is a paradox the form will definitely be well known to us in my opinion and i believe

experts generally agree on this life and intelligence should they exist elsewhere at all should be highly human like you see essentially the origins of life follow the same pattern just as it is with adam's molecules or macromolecules there are fundamental laws of physics that apply invariably in each case these laws have been thoroughly researched and explained and now all you need is the right environment that would enable a process like that to start for example an atom of hydrogen that originates in a galaxy located millions of the past six away from us that is hundreds of millions of light years away is absolutely identical to a hydrogen atom that originates in our solar system because fundamental laws are universal and it's the same with the fundamental laws that govern the origins of life including the fundamental laws of evolution at the more that these are universal so all living things should have the same composition and living organisms should look like the ones we encounter on. these life forms you're

talking about develop into a civilization to work with primarily they can develop intelligence or i think it is possible because apparently there is some. regular pattern of life inevitably develops intelligence if only there's enough time intelligence leads to civilization however this is a very long process mind you the earth formed four point five billion years ago four billion years ago it was already suitable for my forms and in fact that is how long ago initial indications of life date back to you know what evolution takes a long time homo sap eons originated two hundred thousand years ago but it was only forty thousand years ago the modern humans came about the culture bearing humans that you and i belong to. well as a scientist would you guarantee one hundred percent that we will discover life yes and i will explain why you see there is this rational if not purely scientific outlook on the universe a process can either be or if there is at least one similar occurrence of it is

a regular phenomenon for some time scientists believe that the solar system is something unique but nowadays we find that most stars how the planets are in the furthermore the formation of planets is an inevitable process that occurs when a giant molecular cloud forms into a star about a thousand planets located around different stars have been discovered to this date over five hundred stars are known to have planets with a million planets are projected to be discovered within the next ten years with more over some of the recently discovered planets not only resemble the earth by composition but also seem to have. an oxygen necessarily indicates the presence of life i mean while the universe consists of about a hundred billion galaxies each of them has roughly one hundred billion stars almost all stars might have their planets we've already discovered a thousand of them and some of those when it's ten percent or one percent of what

might be suitable for me the return of life of a place the time the earth runs out of its resources and they will definitely be deeply. it's sunday perhaps in a few billion years do you think there is a chance that humankind will be able to inhabit other planets like we have would you if you were you see what you're talking about i'm not an expert on this although i do have a feeling life is generally organized in such a way have been any species exists for certain limited period of time it is highly possible humans are no exception environmental conditions are changed at least five times in the two hundred fifty million years that we're able to trace back up with up to ninety percent of living organisms becoming extinct and earthly floor and forward with the changing completely some hypotheses maintain that it was caused by an asteroid or comet hitting live but i'm more inclined to think that the earth and the solar system or even the universe in general is something with chemistry

a giant faculty with its own working for him and certain species may only be designed to exist for a limited period of time and that may also be the case with humans i find it rather difficult to investments that humans will be traveling to other stars and migrating to other planets on a massive scale in terms of our immediate prospects but the primary destination for human colonization will be the moon and might not live long enough to see this but you definitely will as it will happen within the next twenty to twenty five years three global power some of the united states the european union and china are already competing for set up the first lunar observatory and hence the first colony on the moon later on people might colonize mars. how do you believe in aliens when the in what sense do i believe they have visited us of that and their existence. if there was intelligence and a civilization outside earth then we would call that civilization extraterrestrial

but the term is used quite differently by the public to refer to phenomena you supposedly observed here on earth. that i do not believe in when i know for a fact that it didn't happen the thing is and the public might find this interesting the u.s.s.r. was the only country in its day to host a grand experiment the general staff issued an order to the various limits under the defense ministries command to report any unidentified flying object they were called on identified atmosphere phenomena about them the program was called up of the net it was divided into two parts the defense ministries net looking at what might be traces of new types of weaponry the other than and it's a n. and looked for phenomena previously unknown to human kind for more than twenty one people across one sixth of the earth's territory even at as we had a latina stationed outside the us as on a certain point all those people monitored the skies for u.f.o.'s every single day

they detected approximately one thousand of the unusual phenomena only two of which may explain to this day for the rest really the manmade or natural of some of them are amazing you would not believe me if i told you about some of the things that were found people didn't know such things could happen airplanes abandoned by pilots who flew on for days a missile was wont to take to bypass the passenger jet by a mere two meters we saw something of the sort later on in ukraine i believe it has been proven quite convincingly that extra terrestrials never visited us it makes sense to the way the public is thinking and i'm sure that if we were using horses to get around rather than planes they would think aliens were visiting us on horseback with certain phenomena or interpreted into a myth this way. we recently spoke to jill tarter who works with seti and she told us that of alien so indeed exist there are civilizations should

be much older and more advanced than ours and she said ellen's was not contact us there is a joke we have in the fact that extra terrestrials and not contacting us proves that they exist. and they're smart but seriously we know that there is no speed faster than the speed of light it takes light from the star closest to earth for years to reach us it would take us centuries to devise a means of transportation that would allow us to travel this distance we know for a fact now that the star closest to us is devoid of life the next star the b.s.a. is twenty light years away it would take us. to think of a way to get that physical star travel is impossible that's my belief is good we would have to revise the whole science of physics miracles do not happen in science they do happen but over a different sort of thing called to what we used to. asteroid passed very close to earth several days ago actually everyone is talking about the risk of the earth colliding with another asteroid their profits do you think this is

a real threat just. first of all i want to tell you that asteroids and comets played a very important role in the birth of life remember the solar system is essentially a child chemistry lab with comets and asteroids transport matter across this lot of including some suspect organic matter they have often collided with earth the earth is dotted with asteroid craters we call them in space with. some scientists believe that the disappearance of entire species of plants and animals has to do with asteroids that happened two hundred fifty million fifty million twenty five million years ago now their profits asteroid is not anything out of the ordinary what's more you and i may have seen something of the sort happened twice we saw jupiter collide with an asteroid jupiter is in the earth's lucky star which is our defender if it were not for jupiter all those asteroids would hit us the moon has a lot of asteroid imprints but

a comet recently flew into the sun so there are some examples for you the science that studies asteroids on a collision trajectory with the earth which is approximately. well ten percent of all our stewards states that they do present a threat but back to apophis i think we do not have to worry about it it will come as close to earth as a geostationary satellite does or doesn't win tonight it will be the brightest object in the sky then in twenty thirty two it will return but it will not pass as a close it is quite a lot just about no point five kilometers in diameter there is a chance of it striking earth. if it hits the so-called keyhole of the earth has two of these key out was on its cover taishan a field of each one approximately the size of an asteroid but i do not think the opposites will hit one we will be able to affect your object three and after what. the other house ok would destroy it this was what your experiments conducted on the earth have demonstrated that asteroids are destructible we will need

a stronger force than what we used in the experiment to destroy it however. then again we have been warned in advance which is very important as we thought we could affect its trajectory gradually pushing it into the gravity field of another planet then after making several revolutions it will no longer be on a collision trajectory these ideas have never been implemented but i think they are plausible but of with we shouldn't have a problem doing it even at our technological level. twenty years ago largest country. where did it take to. be close. to the

pass to colombia another chance. and even after i was a bundle of over diary rain a goal time out but somehow he missed it and argentina could also be grateful to a keeper sergio to matter so much finished we'll mail colombia still top group a four point two games. but they do use to play good football and of course if you play good football we're going to get the results we're looking for i we should go out desperate for the win we have to play good football and we know we have the players that can do this the results depend not only an ounce between know we have to win. while meanwhile chile founders were in good voice during their team's latest training session the group c. leaders could finish or can reach even the quarter finals if they beat euro why on friday four players in the session including. sidelined for the aping win over mexico but coach cloudy a bogey expects everyone to be fit for the next game. and elsewhere the quarter

the strains grabbed the winner simon again beating the defenders in the second because he's been much place we've been in the quarterfinals. and finally sweden finished off a group so you have to be to the usa team on the sweet finish their first from a penalty off to quarter of an hour he said outkast stepped up to score it. kept the leftish xplain to the second for a free kick. despite the help of a very good deflection. took on people that won the usa did respond in the second pass by and make twenty backs to the one patch. but that's what i could manage to finish in the going to want to sweden. and moving to england and highly rated midfielder luka moderates will be staying at premier league club tottenham according to his agent says. nikki vest rick sanchez moderate
